Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa has criticized the government’s handling of the power sector, citing a fragile grid that struggles with solar energy growth and low-demand periods.
“First, they blamed the monkeys. Then, they blamed past governments. But the real issue? A fragile grid that can’t handle solar growth & low-demand periods. Misinformation won’t fix power outages—serious reforms will especially in the power sector. A real system change starts with transparency.” Opposition Leader tweeted.
Premadasa shared a letter from the Ceylon Electricity Board’s Deputy General Manager (System Control) from November last year, which highlighted the instability caused by rooftop solar installations and low system inertia during weekends and holidays.
