Roshni Baji Project

In 2021, KE introduced the Roshni Baji project, a ground-breaking initiative that allows women to take on the role of neighbourhood ambassadors while strengthening the link between KE and its consumers. The project recognises that women and children in low-income neighbourhoods are more likely to be electrocuted as a result of malfunctioning equipment and risky practices in their own homes. Roshni Bajis visited these communities’ houses to demonstrate the need of safety around electricity, encourage the use of legal power connections, and provide energy conservation recommendations.

Roshni Bajis undergo extensive personal and professional growth, communication skills, motorcycle riding, and training in self-defense. They also receive training in Pakistan’s first female-certified electrical curriculum, which includes a demanding certification procedure that includes 8000 hours of instruction. Graduates of this program are capable of installing all interior wiring on a single-phase energy supply up to 5kW that runs from the electric utility’s meters to a home’s distribution panel. They can also estimate appliance load and energy usage, guaranteeing that the electrical supply within houses is safe and stable.

The program not only improves the security of consumers by equipping Roshni Bajis with the skills they need to succeed in the field, but it also gives women access to non-traditional avenues of income and participation in the energy industry. The projectrecognises that women serve an important role in encouraging safety and constructing a future powered by renewable energy. Furthermore, Roshni Bajis raises awareness about energy conservation practises, giving customers a comprehensive view of their electricity usage.

Women who participate in the Roshni Baji programme receive access to a variety of personal and professional development opportunities that boosts their self confidence, problem-solving abilities, and sense of safety. The Roshni Baji initiative opens up new pathways for inclusivity and encourages women to take charge of their life by offering women with education and exposure to new skills.

The Roshni Baji initiative exemplifies how women can tear down barriers and forge new avenues by participating in the power sector. The curriculum enables women to advocate safety, establish sustainable energy futures, and gain charge of their lives by offering thorough training and access to innovative skills.
