The assessment of wave energy characteristics in coastal waters of Sri Lanka is important in identifying such a potential. In this study, ocean waves are projected by a numerical wave model developed using the Simulated Nearshore Wave (SWAN) model, which used atmospheric data obtained by a Global Climate Model (GCM) within two (02) time slices
Sri Lanka has pledged to increase the use of renewable energy sources in order to meet UNDP Sustainable Development Goals. Being an island nation, power generation by extracting wave energy could
Ocean wave energy is an abundant renewable energy source which is untapped and inexhaustible with great potential to be developed in Sri Lanka. Wave energy does not generate harmful solid, liquid
Sri Lanka is an island nation which, until 1995, met up to 95% of the country''s electricity demand through hydropower generation [1].The 1996 major power crisis, due to prolonged droughts and increasing electricity demand, led to the island''s longest power cut, and resulted in the importing of fossil fuels to ensure the security of energy supply in the country.
In Sri Lanka, non-renewable energy resources supply most of the energy we use. Non-renewable energy resources include coal, natural gas, petroleum made from crude oil and natural gas liquids. These energy resources are called non

Hydro Potential in Sri Lanka • Hydro power is the main indigenous renewable energy resource available in the country for electricity generation • Almost all the economically viable hydro potential has been developed. • The Government has put the highest emphasis on development of remaining hydro power projects in the
Sri Lanka: Energy intensity: how much energy does it use per unit of GDP? Click to open interactive version. Energy is a large contributor to CO 2 – the burning of fossil fuels accounts for around three-quarters of global greenhouse gas emissions. So, reducing energy consumption can inevitably help to reduce emissions.
The Sri Lanka Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA) warmly welcomes Prof. T.M.J.W. Bandara as its new Chairman, marking him as the 8 th leader of the SLSEA. A renowned figure in the energy conversion research field, Prof. Bandara holds an MPhil from the University of Ruhuna and a PhD from the University of Peradeniya and the Chalmers
The Wind Energy Resource Atlas of Sri Lanka and the Maldives, produced by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory''s (NREL''s) wind resource group identifies the wind characteristics and distribution of the wind resource in Sri Lanka and the Maldives. The detailed wind resource maps and other information contained in the atlas facilitate the
This map has been validated with available surface data by NREL and wind energy meteorological consultants. Description: Abstract: Annual average wind resource potential for Sri Lanka at a 50 meter height. Purpose: Provide information on the wind resource development potential within Sri Lanka. Supplemental_Information:
The first part of this paper summarises the steps in IEC TS 62600–101:2015 that define the methodology followed for the Sri Lankan wave energy resource assessment. Then the results of this assessment are presented with appropriate illustrations and sets of study points which describe the wave energy potential around Sri Lanka.
The United States Department of Energy (DOE), through the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), has been working in partnership with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) in an on-going process to quantify the Sri Lanka wind energy potential and foster wind energy development.
TY - GEN. T1 - Solar Resource Assessment for Sri Lanka and Maldives. AU - NREL, null. PY - 2003. Y1 - 2003. N2 - The countries of Sri Lanka and the Maldives lie within the equatorial belt, a region where substantial solar energy resources exist throughout much of the year in adequate quantities for many applications, including solar water heating, solar electricity, and desalination.
National Energy Policy and Strategies of Sri Lanka (2019) is now available for public reference. The policy document has following three sections.

Primarily, Sri Lanka has the required resource potential – particularly wind energy and solar energy resources. Even with the potential lands of solar power development alone, the electricity generation capacity for a foreseeable future period can be met.
However, as of 2018, only 39 % of Sri Lanka's energy generation capacity was harnessed through renewable energy sources. The continuous increase in electrical energy demand and the drastic increase in vehicle population over the past few years have resulted in much of its annual income being spent on purchasing fossil fuels from foreign countries.
Moreover, Sri Lanka has also identified the potential for wind, bioenergy, and solar as alternative energy sources in the past two decades. However, the current contribution from these three renewable sources in comparison to hydroelectricity remains significantly low.
Sri Lanka's energy policies and strategies strongly focus on developing conventional and nonconventional renewable energy sources for generating power. Promoting domestic energy resources has become one of the main policy components in Sri Lanka.
With limited land availability for traditional solar installations, utilizing water bodies for solar power generation presents a smart and innovative solution. This strategy supports Sri Lanka’s ambitious national goal of generating 70% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030.
