PM Fan Replacement Program

Electricity prices in Pakistan have soared to record levels in 2025. From Karachi to Lahore, households are feeling the pressure of rising power bills while the national grid faces heavy demand during scorching summer months.

To address this crisis, the Government of Pakistan has rolled out the Prime Minister Fan Replacement Program 2025, accessible through efan.gov.pk. The initiative enables homeowners to replace their outdated, power-hungry ceiling fans with NEECA-certified 5-star energy-efficient fans through an on-bill installment system.

This move isn’t just about lowering monthly costs — it’s a step toward reshaping Pakistan’s energy consumption habits and paving the way for a more sustainable, eco-friendly future.

Why Energy-Efficient Fans Matter

Traditional ceiling fans consume about 110–125 watts, while modern 5-star energy-efficient fans use only 40–55 watts — a potential 70% reduction in electricity consumption per fan.

For a home with 4–5 fans, this can slash power bills by thousands of rupees every month.
On a national level, this program could save up to 7,000 MW of electricity — enough to prevent widespread load-shedding.

Bottom line: Energy-efficient fans mean lower bills, fewer blackouts, and a greener Pakistan.
