Feb 13, 2017 (LBO) - Sri Lanka’s Power Ministry has decided to put in place a competitive pricing mechanism for medium scale solar power generation companies commencing later this week, the minister said.
"This is a turning point in the pricing system and the consumers will be the beneficiaries," Ranjith Siyambalapitiya, minister of power and renewable energy said.
