34 MW Solar Project Launched to Power Kabul’s Industrial Park

DID Press: Work has started on a major 34-megawatt solar power project for Kabul’s Green Industrial Park, which the national utility, Da Afghanistan Breshna Sherkat (DABS), says will supply a significant portion of the park’s energy needs and enable the reopening of idle factories.

Officials said the project will help dozens of factories that have long faced electricity shortages to resume operations, creating new jobs and boosting domestic production.

Breshna emphasized that expanding renewable energy, particularly for industrial use, is crucial to reducing reliance on imported power and strengthening Afghanistan’s economic infrastructure.
