Green Power Development and Energy Efficiency Improvement Investment Programme - Tranche 2 involve Transmission infrastructure enhancement, capacity and energy efficiency improvement of medium voltage network and Demand-Side Management (DSM) involving smart grid and metering pilot subproject.
The project scope include 220 KV transmission development in Mannar to evacuate energy generated from proposed Wind Power Project that will be completed in 2020, construction of 220 kV Polpitiya-Hambanthota transmission line and 220 kV Grid substation at Hambanthota, construction of Horana-Padukka 132 kV transmission line and the second circuit stringing of Habarana- Valachchanai 132 kV transmission line, construction of 132/33 kV Colombo sub B, augmentation of Dehiwala, Horana,Padukka, Kolonnawa, Madampe. Kotugoda grid substations, 220/33 kV capacity enhancement at Biyagama grid substation, enhancement of MV distribution in Anuradhapura area and Ethagala area in Kurunegala, construction of 33 kV lines; Kappalthurai-China Bay, Embilipitiya- Wenivalara and Matugama-Benthota. This also include construction of Rattanapitiya primary substation and augmentation of Ethul-Kotte and Beligala primary substations.The Demand Side Management (DSM) activity involve smart meter installation work
All the provinces in Sri Lanka excluding Uva Province will be directly benefitted by the implementation of transmission, distribution and demand side management components of this program.
The total investment cost of the Tranche 2 is USD 260 million. ADB will provide USD 150 million while AFD will provide USD 30 million and the balance from Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB). The loan agreement between ADB & CEB was signed on 27th December 2016 and the project is expected to be completed in December, 2021. By end of 2019, fall transmission infrastructure projects components has been awarded and under construction.
