Our Journey
A Timeline of Engineering-Led Solar in Pakistan
From Modular Energy’s founding to 1,000+ SOL AI monitored sites today — every milestone in the build-out of Pakistan’s first end-to-end solar lifecycle company.
Modular Energy founded
Modular Energy (SMC-Private) Limited incorporated as Pakistan’s engineering-led solar installer. Founded by Syed Muhammad Mujtaba Raza on the principle that Pakistan deserved Tier-1-only installations executed to international engineering standards — not the lowest-bid contracts dominating the early market.
AEDB Certified · No. 1 on Pakistan’s PPIB list
In 2021 Solar Citizen receives its AEDB C-3 license, qualifying the company to install systems up to 250 kW. In 2023 it upgrades to AEDB C-2 (up to 500 kW) and ranks #1 on Pakistan’s official PPIB Certified Installer list.
Supreme Court of Pakistan — first Federal Government building to go solar
Solar Citizen commissions the 100 kW solar PV system at the Supreme Court of Pakistan — the first federal government building in the country to transition to solar. The installation becomes the reference deployment for Pakistan’s broader federal solar transition: a publicly documented baseline for energy savings, net-metering integration, and engineering specifications that subsequent federal buildings now follow.
Pivot to technology-led solar · SOL AI launched
Solar Citizen evolves from a solar installer into Pakistan’s first technology-led solar company. The pivot is anchored in the creation of Modular Intelligence (SMC-Private) Limited as a separate engineering entity, and the launch of its inaugural product: SOL AI — Pakistan’s only proprietary always-on solar monitoring intelligence. SOL AI runs on top of every Solar Citizen installation, with 24/7 fault detection, per-string performance tracking, WhatsApp performance alerts, tariff-aware export optimisation, and K-Electric load-shedding intelligence built specifically for Pakistan’s grid.
1,000+ SOL AI monitored sites
SOL AI surpasses 1,000 active monitored sites across Pakistan — the largest AI-monitored solar installation base in the country. Sites span residential, SME commercial, and industrial scale across every major Pakistani city.

Our Climate Commitment
One tree planted for every kilowatt of solar installed.
Every kilowatt of solar Solar Citizen commissions offsets carbon. Every tree we plant captures more. Pakistan needs both — so we made the commitment a structural part of how the company grows.
In 2025, Solar Citizen partnered with the Government of Sindh on a tree plantation drive at Bagh Ibn-e-Qasim Park, Karachi — the inaugural execution of our “one tree for every kW installed” commitment.
Every solar installation we commission triggers a tree planted in Pakistan. As of mid-2026 that commitment scales with 1,000+ sites and counting — a real, growing offset that’s verifiable through the partnership records.

Three brands, two registered companies, one engineering team. Here’s how it fits together.
Modular Energy (SMC-Private) Limited — Pakistan-incorporated SMC-Private Limited, holds AEDB and PPIB certifications, KCCI member #136654. Operates two customer-facing brands:
- Solar Citizen — the installation arm
- Sol Care — the inspection & cleaning arm
Modular Intelligence (SMC-Private) Limited — Pakistan-incorporated SMC-Private Limited. Operates:
- SOL AI — the AI-powered solar monitoring product
Both Modular entities share ownership and operate as one engineering team. When you install with Solar Citizen, you’re handed off to SOL AI for monitoring, with Sol Care available for physical maintenance — all from people who answer to the same CEO.
