Is there a hybrid renewable power generation system in Sri Lanka?

In Sri Lanka, a hybrid renewable power generation system integrating the available solar and wind resources is not yet sufficiently harnessed for electricity generation. This thesis will investigate such a system in detail for a specific location.

Is wind solar potential high in Sri Lanka?

This thesis aims to provide insights into the development of wind-solar hybrid-power generation systems where wind solar potential is high in Sri Lanka. The potential of solar energy and wind energy will be investigated at different locations in Sri Lanka by gathering data from various sources.

Is Sri Lanka economically feasible for wind and solar power generation?

Sri Lanka has identified economically feasible potential for wind and solar energy generation. The southern and western coastal belts are particularly suitable for utility scale wind and solar power generation.

What is the literature review of windsolar hybrid system in Sri Lanka?

A literature review was conducted to gain a better understanding about the energy situation and problems of the energy sector in Sri Lanka. Given that designing a windsolar hybrid system is a new concept in a Sri Lankan context, related literature was studied.

What is a wind-solar hybrid power system?

A wind-solar hybrid system is a power generation system that combines wind and solar power. It is a type of power system that has numerous advantages, including improved reliability and enhanced energy service when solar and wind power production resources are used together.

What is Sri Lanka’s energy policy?

The government of Sri Lanka introduced an energy policy to promote electricity generation based on non-conventional renewable energy with a target of achieving 10% of power generation through non-conventional renewable energy by year 2015 and 20% by 2020. [1]
