585 Watt Solar Panel Price in Pakistan Today (9 Oct 2026)

The 585 watt plate is the panel most Pakistani installers quote by default, so the solar panel 585 watt price in Pakistan today is the number most buyers check first. The dated table above shows the live rate for every brand. Below we cover what you actually get for that money: real datasheet specs from four makers, how many plates you need for 3, 5 and 10 kW, units per season in four cities, and the checks to do before you hand over cash.

Right now the cheapest A-grade 585 W panel on our sheet is Rs 23,400, which works out to Rs 40 per watt. The market average across all large panels is Rs 41.3 per watt, so you can see at a glance whether 585 W is sitting above or below the pack.

585 watt solar panel specifications

Many brands now sell a 585 watt solar panel in Pakistan, and the four compared here are Jinko, LONGi, JA Solar and Astronergy. All four use the same 2278 × 1134 mm frame, which is why installers treat 585 W as a standard size. LONGi has replaced its Hi-MO 6 with the Hi-MO X7 at this size, so the Hi-MO 6 figures below are for reference; ask for the X7 datasheet before you buy. Where they differ is weight, cell design and whether the back is glass.

Spec (maker datasheet)	Jinko Tiger Neo JKM585N-72HL4-V	LONGi Hi-MO 6 LR5-72HTH-585M (now replaced by Hi-MO X7)	JA DeepBlue 4.0 JAM72D40-585/MB	Astronergy ASTRO N5 585
Size (mm)	2278 × 1134 × 35	2278 × 1134 × 35	2278 × 1134 × 30	2278 × 1134 × 30
Size (feet)	7.47 × 3.72	7.47 × 3.72	7.47 × 3.72	7.47 × 3.72
Weight	28.0 kg	27.5 kg	31.8 kg	32.1 kg
Voc	51.16 V	52.36 V	52.16 V	52.42 V
Isc	14.55 A	14.27 A	13.89 A	14.07 A
Efficiency	22.65%	22.6%	22.6%	22.6%
Cells	144 half-cut, N-type TOPCon	144 half-cut, N-type HPBC (back contact)	144 half-cut, N-type, bifacial	144 half-cut, N-type TOPCon, bifacial glass-glass
Power temp. coefficient	-0.29%/°C	-0.29%/°C	-0.29%/°C	-0.29%/°C
Warranty (product / power)	12 / 30 years	15 / 25 years	12 / 30 years	15 / 30 years

Two things stand out. First, the bifacial glass-glass panels (JA and Astronergy) weigh about 4 kg more each. On a 9-panel roof that is roughly 36 kg extra, which matters for light iron structures. Second, every one of them has a temperature coefficient of -0.29%/°C, which is much better than the -0.35%/°C of the older Mono PERC plates. In a Multan June, when cell temperature can sit around 60 to 65°C, that gap is worth a few percent of output every afternoon.

Monofacial or bifacial at 585 W?

The LONGi and Jinko plates above are monofacial: glass on the front, a backsheet behind. The JA and Astronergy versions are bifacial, so light reflected off the roof also reaches the back of the cells. Whether that extra is worth paying for depends on how the panels are mounted.

• Flush on a dark roof or a low tin shed: almost no rear gain. Buy whichever 585 W is cheaper per watt.
• On a raised iron structure 4 to 6 feet above a white or light-grey roof: a bifacial plate can pick up a few extra percent, more over white chips or a painted slab.
• Over a ground-mounted farm array on light soil: bifacial gain is real, and the glass back also resists moisture better.
• On a weak or old structure: the 4 kg extra per plate counts. Have the installer check the frame first.

If you can’t decide, ask the installer for the rear-side reflectivity of your roof.

585 W vs nearby wattages: which should you buy?

The jump between 580, 585, 590 and 600 W is small on paper. In practice the decision usually comes down to price per watt on the day you buy and what your installer has in stock. This table pulls live numbers from our price sheet.

Wattage	Cheapest A-grade price	Price per watt	Panels for 5 kW	Notes
580 W	Rs 24,505	Rs 42.3	9	Same frame and family as 585 W
585 W	Rs 23,400	Rs 40	9	Widest brand choice
590 W	Rs 23,600	Rs 40	9	Fewer models, mostly bifacial
600 W	Rs 25,500	Rs 42.5	9	Top bin, often a premium

How to read it:

• If 580 W is cheaper per watt by even a few paisa, buy 580 W. It is the same panel from a slightly lower power bin. Our 580 watt page breaks this down.
• If the 600 W price per watt is close to 585 W, the 600 W plate gives you more output from the same frame size. See the 600 watt solar panel price page for the models.
• Canadian Solar also sells its TOPHiKu6 N-type at 585 W, currently Rs 25,155, and a 590 W version listed on our Canadian solar panel price page.

Brand prices at exactly 585 W

Brand	Live price	Price per watt
Jinko	Rs 25,420	Rs 43.5
LONGi	Rs 25,010	Rs 42.8
JA Solar	Rs 23,545	Rs 40.2
Astronergy	Rs 23,985	Rs 41

The spread between the cheapest and dearest 585 W brand is usually a few hundred rupees per plate. On a 10 kW job that adds up, but so does a stronger dealer warranty. For model-level detail on the most popular one, see the Jinko 585 watt price page.

How many 585 W panels for 3, 5 and 10 kW (with price)

Divide the system size by 585 and round up. Rounding up means you get a little more than the nameplate kW, which is no bad thing because real output is always below the label.

System	Panels needed	Actual DC size	Panel cost (cheapest 585 W)	Panel area
3 kW	6	3.51 kW	Rs 140,400	about 167 sq ft
5 kW	9	5.27 kW	Rs 210,600	about 250 sq ft
10 kW	18	10.53 kW	Rs 421,200	about 500 sq ft

Panel area is just the plates themselves. Leave about 25% more roof for gaps, walkways and the parapet shadow, so a 5 kW array needs a clear roof patch of roughly 310 to 320 sq ft.

The panel cost above is only the plates. A complete system also needs an inverter, structure, DC and AC cabling, breakers, earthing and labour. When you compare quotes, ask each installer to list these items separately so you can see what the plates cost against everything else. Our full solar panel price list shows every wattage side by side if you want to price an alternative layout.

A practical example. A family in Johar Town with a 5 kW sanctioned load and a south-facing roof takes 9 plates of 585 W. That gives 5.27 kW DC, which pairs well with a 5 or 6 kW inverter. If the roof only fits 8 plates, they would be at 4.68 kW and still inside a 5 kW inverter’s comfort zone.

How many units does a 585 watt panel produce in Pakistan?

A single 585 W panel produces roughly 1.6 to 3.9 units (kWh) a day depending on city and season. The figures below use long-term solar data for each city at a good south-facing tilt, with about 22% taken off for heat, dust, wiring and inverter losses. They are averages; a cloudy week will be lower.

City	Summer (per day)	Autumn	Winter	Spring	Average per month
Lahore	2.9 units	2.2	1.6	3.0	about 73 units
Karachi	2.8 units	2.6	2.4	3.4	about 83 units
Islamabad	3.1 units	2.3	1.7	2.9	about 75 units
Multan	3.0 units	2.3	1.8	3.1	about 77 units

Multiply by your panel count for a system figure. Nine plates in Lahore average about 650 units a month, but expect roughly 440 in December and January and close to 800 in April and May. Karachi is steadier across the year because its winters are sunnier, while Lahore and Islamabad lose a lot to fog and haze in December and January.

A 9-panel, 5.27 kW system through the year

Season	Lahore per month	Karachi per month	Islamabad per month	Multan per month
Summer	about 780 units	about 740	about 840	about 820
Autumn	about 590	about 690	about 620	about 620
Winter	about 440	about 640	about 460	about 490
Spring	about 800	about 930	about 790	about 830

The gap between the best and worst month is what catches most buyers out. A Lahore family that uses 600 units a month will be covered through spring and summer, run close in autumn, then fall short in December and January. Plan the bill for those two months, not for May.

Under the NEPRA (Prosumer) Regulations 2026, new solar connections are on net billing, where exported units are credited at a much lower rate than the units you buy from the grid. That makes the winter figure more important than the summer one: size for what you use, not for how much you can export.

What can a 585 watt solar panel run?

On a clear afternoon a 585 W panel delivers about 430 to 480 W of usable AC after heat and inverter losses. Over a day in Lahore that averages around 2.4 units. Here is what that covers.

Appliance	Typical draw	How many on one panel at midday	Daily units covered by one panel
DC inverter ceiling fan	30–40 W	11–13 fans	about 6 fans for 10 hours
Standard AC ceiling fan	75–90 W	5 fans	about 3 fans for 10 hours
LED bulb	10–15 W	30+ bulbs	lights for a whole house
Inverter fridge	about 1–1.5 units per day	runs easily	one fridge plus spare
1.5 ton inverter AC	0.6–1.6 kW, varies with heat	not alone	needs 3–4 panels on a hot afternoon
1 HP water motor	about 750 W running	not alone	2 panels plus inverter headroom for startup

The usual mistake is to count panels against the AC alone. A 1.5 ton inverter AC that runs eight hours in June can easily use 8 to 10 units, which is four plates’ worth in Lahore. Add fans, fridge and the motor and you see why most homes in Punjab end up with 9 to 12 plates rather than five.

Best inverter for 585 W panels

The two numbers to match are voltage and current. A 585 W panel has a Voc of about 51 to 52.4 V at 25°C, and that voltage rises in cold weather. On a 0°C January morning in Islamabad, a LONGi 585 can reach about 55 V. Always size the string on the cold figure.

Inverter type	Typical max PV voltage	585 W panels per string	Fits
Single-phase hybrid, 4–6 kW	450–550 V (check label)	7–9	Homes with batteries or heavy load-shedding
Single-phase on-grid, 5–6 kW	about 550–600 V	9–10	Net billing homes, no battery
Three-phase on-grid, 10–15 kW	1000–1100 V	up to 17–18	Large homes, shops, offices

Current matters too. These panels push 13.9 to 14.6 A short-circuit current, so pick an inverter whose MPPT input is rated for at least 15 A per string. Many new models are rated higher, but some older hybrid units are not.

On-grid or hybrid? With net billing paying less for exports, a hybrid with a modest battery makes more sense than it did a few years ago, especially in areas with long load-shedding. If you have stable supply and use most of your power in daytime, an on-grid inverter is still the cheapest per unit. Whatever you choose, get the string layout in writing from the installer, with the cold-weather voltage calculation shown.

Buying tips before you pay

Most problems with 585 W panels come from paperwork and handling, not the cells. Use this checklist.

1. Check the grade. Ask for A-grade in writing. The label on the back should show the full model code, such as JKM585N-72HL4-V or LR5-72HTH-585M, and a serial number that matches the box.
2. Verify the serial. Jinko lets you check serials online, and other makers’ distributors will confirm a serial on request. Our Jinko verification guide shows the steps.
3. Get the warranty card from the official distributor, not just the dealer’s stamp. The power warranty only helps if the panel can be traced to an authorised import.
4. Inspect on delivery. Panels should travel upright in their cartons. Refuse any plate with chipped glass, a bent frame or a cracked junction box.
5. Ask for a flash test report if you buy a full container or pallet. It lists the measured watts for each serial.
6. Get a proper bill with brand, model, wattage, quantity, serial numbers and date. You need it for warranty claims and for your net billing file.
7. Do not mix models in one string. A Jinko 585 and a LONGi 585 have different voltages, so keep each brand on its own MPPT.

Bought right and installed on a sound structure, a 585 W N-type panel should still be making about 87 to 89% of its rated power after 25 to 30 years, going by the makers’ power warranties.
