Solar systems, designed and installed
We design solar around your bills, your roof and your backup needs, then supply, install and commission it. Tricom has delivered solar as a full EPC contractor since 2020.
Lower bills
Solar designed around twelve months of your bills, so it offsets what you actually use.
Power through outages
Hybrid systems with batteries keep essential loads running during load-shedding.
Paperwork handled
We prepare and follow through the net-metering or net-billing application.
Built for your roof
Elevated, saw-tooth, rail or ground-mount structures, engineered in-house.
Which system fits you
On-grid
Cuts your electricity bill and can export surplus through net metering. Turns off during load-shedding unless paired with backup.
Hybrid
Solar with batteries. Keeps essential loads running through outages and still lowers your bill.
Off-grid
For sites without a reliable connection, including farms and solar water pumping with variable-speed drives.
How big a system do you need?
Enter the units from your electricity bill for a rough starting size. Your engineer will confirm it after a site survey.
Based on about 120 units a month per kilowatt of solar in Karachi conditions, and about 60 sq ft of roof per kilowatt. Actual output depends on your roof, shading and orientation.

Solar questions
Ask us something elseWill solar keep my power on during load-shedding?
Only with batteries. An on-grid system switches off when the grid goes down, for safety. A hybrid system with batteries keeps your essential loads running through outages.
How big a system do I need?
We size it from your last twelve months of bills, your roof and the loads you want backed up. The estimator on our Solar page gives you a rough starting figure.
Do you handle the net-metering or net-billing application?
Yes. We prepare and file the application with your distribution company and follow it through to connection.
Which brands do you install?
Panels from LONGi, Jinko and JA Solar, inverters from Huawei, Solis and Sungrow, and CATL battery storage, bought through authorized channels so the manufacturer warranties apply.
Will the structure damage my roof?
We design the structure for your roof: elevated, saw-tooth, rail-mount or ground-mount. Elevated structures with walkways keep the roof usable and the panels easy to clean.
