Beginning in the 1980's the first photovoltaic solar panels were installed in Pakistan in 18 different stations around the country, with a capacity of 440 kW. In 1983, a 6 kW PV system was donated by Kyocera to power the village of Kankoi, but the project was not successful. Due to a lack of expertise and maintenance, further expansion of solar projects was not pursued. In the 1990s, the first renewable energy departments were established in Pakistan, and in the early 21st century, the Alternate Energy.
