Background/Objectives: With the swift increasing electricity demands, Pakistan is a densely populated nation that commonly encountered the problem of low energy sources. To tackle the energy crises, four different means of low-cost energy sources mainly Solar, Inverter, Generator, and Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) are employed. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The current work will give ceaseless power supply to a load, naturally from one of the above four sources which is more cost-productive. Findings: Cost of every source is found out and it has been observed that the price of photovoltaic cells is the minimum one for the next ten years. Applications/Improvements: The proposed system can be best implemented in hospitals or remote areas where the electricity is not present and real-time companies which manipulates the data at every movements. Also the home users can be benefited from this system but the initial cost would be high and for once only. Moreover, the improvements can be done by adding the GSM module which can be used to regularize the load according to user convenience.
