The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Indo-Lanka electricity grid connectivity project is expected to be signed next weekend during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Sri Lanka.
The concept of an interconnected power grid between India and Sri Lanka has been under consideration for over a decade but has gained momentum in recent years.
The Sri Lankan government has set a target to connect the two grids by 2030, aligning with its broader renewable energy goals.
One of Sri Lanka’s key energy objectives is to generate 70% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The grid connection with India is seen as a critical step in achieving this, along with transitioning its thermal plants from diesel to liquefied natural gas (LNG).
