    FAQs about Sri Lanka Wind and Solar Energy Storage Power Generation Project

    Does Sri Lanka need solar power?

    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.

    Does Sri Lanka have wind power?

    Later still, the satellite-based survey of wind resources in the country carried out by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) of the United States of America revealed that Sri Lanka possess developable wind resources capable of generating 25,000 MW of power.

    What are the benefits of an energy park in Sri Lanka?

    The main benefits of an energy park are as follows: Wind power development in Sri Lanka date back to mid-1990's where the first grid connected project was implemented by the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB), in Hambantota. This project continues to operate till mid-2018, with a capacity of 3 MW.

    What is the technical potential of off-shore wind in Sri Lanka?

    The estimated total technical potential of off-shore wind in Sri Lanka is 92 GW, including 55 GW of fixed potential and 37 GW of floating potential. Technical potential is defined as the maximum possible installed capacity as determined by wind speed and water depth.

    Who is the single buyer of electricity in Sri Lanka?

    The CEB is the single buyer of electricity as permitted in the legislation. Sri Lanka, being a relatively small country with heavy pressure on land use cannot afford to have several wind power projects scattered all over the country, although the resource potential may encourage such widespread dispersion of projects.

    Will Sri Lanka sanction a 100 MW solar park in Siyambalanduwa?

    Sri Lanka is blessed with plentiful solar resources. Through this initiative to sanction a 100 MW solar park in Siyambalanduwa, emphasis has been made to use barren lands unsuited for agriculture or other economic development activities for solar power generation. Accordingly, the first 100 MW solar park will be sanctioned in Siyambalanduwa.

    FAQs about Fuel Cell Base Station Power Supply

    Can a fuel cell backup power system be used for telecom applications?

    Other than the added cost of the fuel cell backup power system, no obvious hurdles—considering technique, installation, and operation—exist in deploying such a system for telecom applications. The hydrogen level may be monitored remotely to allow the user to maintain the fuel supply.

    Do fuel cell backup systems add value to the grid?

    This study evaluates the strategic integration of clean, efficient, and reliable fuel cell systems with the grid for improved economic benefits. The backup systems have potential as enhanced capability through information exchanges with the power grid to add value as grid services that depend on location and time.

    How much does a fuel cell backup system cost?

    The assumed lifetime for the fuel cell backup units is according to publicly available data from 15 years, and Ballard Power Systems, the installed cost for the 2-kW ElectraGen-H2 system is about $20,000 and the installed cost for the 4-kW ElectraGen-ME system is $36,000.

    Are fuel cell power systems a viable alternative power supply technology?

    Clean and efficient fuel cell power systems have shown great potentials as an alternative power supply technology for distributed energy resource (DER) needs. They are also attractive for telecommunications companies that want to avoid prolonged power outages and disruption of service to their customers.

    How many fuel cell systems are there?

    Since 2007, more than 3,000 fuel cell systems have been installed at cellular facilities owned by telecom companies—Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, and others—to power their facilities. The sites include both remote and urban locations. The fuel cell systems are networked and monitored remotely, providing benefits that include: small foot print.

    What are the advantages of fuel cell backup power systems?

    Fuel cell backup power systems have many advantages relative to incumbent technologies. IC generators have been widely used for portable and backup power, and they are commercially available at low cost and have standard product series to serve the backup power market.
