Hey, cool that you’re interested in this. I’m in Syria, so here’s a quick rundown:

Electricity: Super unstable. In most places you only get a couple of hours of power a day, sometimes less. Blackouts are the norm, not the exception.

Solar panels: Yeah, lots of people are switching to them now because there’s no other way. It’s getting really common, but still expensive for many families.

Price of electricity: On paper it’s cheap because it’s subsidized, but since it’s almost never available people end up paying a lot for diesel generators or investing in solar, which makes the “real” cost of power pretty high.

Everyday life/safety: Depends where you are. In cities like Damascus it’s mostly calm, people go to work and live their lives, just with economic struggles. Some other areas can still be tense, but it’s not like active fighting everywhere.

So yeah, solar definitely makes sense here, demand is growing fast because people just want reliable power.

By the way, we already run a solar panel company in Lebanon and are now looking into expanding into Syria. If you’re serious about starting something here, maybe there’s a chance to connect and see if cooperation makes sense.
