In response to growing demand from small and medium enterprises (SMEs), Genso Power has introduced new affordable solar packages tailored to business needs. These packages include system design, installation, net metering support, and post-sale maintenance. SMEs are encouraged to invest in clean energy and cut operational costs while contributing to national sustainability goals.
With prolonged droughts affecting hydroelectric power generation in several Sri Lankan regions, solar energy is being recognized as a vital backup power source. Communities in the North Central and Uva provinces have increasingly turned to solar installations to ensure uninterrupted power. Genso Power continues to assist such regions in adopting scalable solar solutions suitable for both homes and agriculture.
A new solar energy training program targeting school leavers and technical students was launched this month in Sri Lanka’s Central Province. The initiative aims to create skilled workers for the growing solar industry. Genso Power supports this capacity-building effort and looks forward to collaborating with future professionals trained through these programs.
The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) has announced the expansion of the net metering scheme, allowing residential and commercial solar users to receive better credits for excess electricity sent to the grid. This revision comes as part of the government’s plan to incentivize solar adoption in 2025. At Genso Power, we help our customers understand these benefits and set up optimized net-metered systems.
The Sri Lanka Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA) has introduced updated technical standards for solar panel imports and installations. These new regulations aim to ensure long-term durability, better performance, and environmental safety. Genso Power already complies with these upgraded standards, ensuring our customers get high-efficiency panels with reliable warranties and certified installations.
Sri Lanka has surpassed 600MW in installed solar capacity, according to recent reports from the Sri Lanka Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA). This growth comes as part of the ‘Battle for Solar Energy’ initiative launched by the government to promote rooftop solar among households and industries. As energy demands rise across the country, solar has become a reliable alternative to reduce fossil fuel imports. At Genso Power, we welcome this progress and encourage communities to continue embracing sustainable energy options for a greener tomorrow.
