ශ්‍රී ලංකාවේ විදුලිබල පද්ධතිය සුරක්ෂිතද? Is Sri Lanka’s Power System Future-Proof?

Share

In this podcast, we discuss how a power network of a country works in reality, and how it has been implemented in Sri Lanka. Next, since privatisation of Sri Lanka’s power network has been a hot topic for years, we discuss what it truly means. We then dive into the concept of a completely decentralized power network, breaking down the pros and cons of such a system. We explore a hypothetical implementation of decentralised energy system in Sri Lanka, offering insights and practical examples.

Finally, we invite the public to think critically as to what should you really be asking about privatisation instead of just demanding change. Watch now to get informed and join the conversation!
