In 2021, wind and Solar Energy accounted for more than one-tenth (10.3%) of Global electricity, and coal power generation experienced a significant rising of 9.0%. As an island country, Sri Lanka, there is a substantial rise in electricity generation in 2021 than previous years resulting 6.4% hike.
The Sri Lankan Government and the Ministry of Power have launched some programs to promote this clean, renewable energy resource, solar, in collaboration with Sri Lankan sustainable energy authority. Soorya Bala Sangramaya is one of the most popular programs the Sri Lankan government launched to promote solar energy in Sri Lanka.
We explored the different types of solar power systems, such as on-grid, off-grid, and hybrid systems, along with their advantages and disadvantages. We proposed several recommendations to promote the installation of solar panels in Sri Lanka.
Preliminary studies are currently in progress both for the renewable energy park and associated transmission infrastructure. According to the initial assessments, the park will produce 250 MW wind power and 150 MW of solar PV generation. Sri Lanka, being located within the equatorial belt, has substantial potential in solar resource.
According to the solar resource map created by NREL of the USA, the flat dry zone in Sri Lanka, which accounts for two-thirds of the land area, experiences solar radiation ranging from 4.0 to 4.5 kWh/m2/day. However, there are several factors that can influence the amount of electricity generated from solar panels installed in any given location.
Hydropower is the main firm renewable source of generation in the Sri Lankan power system and it is mainly owned by CEB. However, other renewable sources such as mini hydro, wind, solar, dendro, and biomass are also connected to the system, majority of which are owned by the private sector developers.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
