Kelanitissa Power Station is the first ever thermal power station in Sri Lanka which started its operations in 1964 with two steam turbines of 25MW capacity each running on furnace oil. The tank farm which is used to store fuel for the operation of Gas Turbines consists of four Diesel storage tanks and two Naphtha Tanks (for the use of
Hydro power is a key energy source used for electricity generation in Sri Lanka, which provided almost all the electricity until early 1990s. A large share of the major hydro potential has already been developed and delivers valuable low-cost electricity to the country. Currently, hydro power stations are operated to supply both peaking and

actual disturbances that occurred in the power system of Sri Lanka. They are as follows. • The disturbance caused due to the disconnection of 130 MW of Yugadhanavi power station generation on 17 Jul 2019 at 9:19 hours. The disturbance caused due to the disconnection of 200 MW of Lakvijaya power station generation on 21 Dec 2019 at 21:10 hours.
The waste-to-energy power plant will incinerate this waste, supplied by the Colombo Municipal Council. 600-800 MT of waste will be processed every day and the power supplied to the national grid. In keeping with the Aitken Spence ethos of sustainability, social responsibility, and environmental stewardship, the plant will

When Sri Lanka''s fuel crisis hit in June, waiting in a petrol queue for over 14 hours in Colombo gave time for some truths to sink in. One is that going to get that coffee to keep you awake would inevitably prompt the queue to move.
Accordingly, total power generation declined to 15,942 GWh in 2022, compared to 16,716 GWh in2021. The country is planning to renew a 70 energy target by 2030. The objective is to increase the power generation capacity of the country from the existing 4,043 megawatts (MW) to 6,900 MW by 2025 with a significant increase in
