How Pakistan might benifit from solar energy

A science teacher explained to me the cons of solar power panels. They interfere with the natural distribution of sunlight to plants. So if you have a garden of various plants with solar panels the plants aren't getting the natural amount of sunlight needed because the panels are constantly absorbing sunlight coming through.

But in some areas of Pakistan we can still benefit form the use solar panels. Because of global warming areas in Balochistan are getting hotter and more sun radiation will harm people and plants so in those areas solar panels can be very useful they'll produce so much electricity and reduce the heat and radiation spreading on the landmass so in Balochistan and Sindh it can be beneficial.

But in the Northern Areas there's a lot of forests and plants so people there should use windmills or use water turbines instead of solar panels.

And because the southern provinces receive such heavy heat throughout the year, solar energy can be saved and exported to countries that receive little of it in the winters like Scandinavian countries or parts of Canada.
These countries would desperately need energy in the winters to keep heating systems going and other things that require energy.

Additionally a good suggestion would be for Pakistan's population to slowly switch to electric stoves from gas stoves. This dependency on gas has to stop at some point or we have no future as a country.

Switching from pollutive, limited energy resources to clean electric equipment weather for cooking, transportation or many other uses we can make of clean electric energy.
