Thermal power stations in Sri Lanka now roughly match the installed hydroelectric generation capacity, with a share of nearly 49% of the available capacity in December 2013 and 40% of power generated in 2013. [9] Thermal power stations in Sri Lanka runs on diesel, other fuel oils, naptha or coal. [9]
Solar power is a relatively young segment in the energy industry of Sri Lanka. As of 2015, only a few grid-connected solar farms were operational, including a state-run facility. Despite at least half a dozen private companies applying for development permits for photovoltaic and solar thermal projects, [24] most have not actually commenced ...
The 10 megawatt power station will be operated by KCHT Lanka Jang (Private) Limited, a subsidiary of the South Korean company KCHT Holding. It will use 630 metric tons (1,390,000 lb) of waste from the Colombo and Gampaha suburbs. The generated power will be sold to the state-owned Ceylon Electricity Board at a rate of Rs. 37.10 per KWh generated

The Kelanitissa Power Station is a state-owned power station located on the south bank of the Kelani River in the northern part of the city of Colombo, Sri Lanka. Commissioned in 1964, it is the first thermal power station built in Sri Lanka, after the country gained independence.
The facility will generate 11.5 megawatt (MW) of power, of which 9.7 MW will be sold to the state-owned Ceylon Electricity Board, [1] at a rate of Rs. 37.10 per KWh generated. [2] Construction of the US$ 98 million power station began on 10 August 2017 , and is expected to complete by 2020.
This latter claim requires correction, as it is impossible to generate this much power from a 25-megawatt generator in one year. The maximum power possible from a 25-megawatt generator at .06 per kw (wholesale) is $13.14 million (US).] Construction of the power station costs US$382 million, with an EIRR (Economic Internal Rate of Return) of 22% ...
