This proposal outlines the background of solar power in Sri Lanka, the specific needs of schools, the objectives of our project, and a detailed plan for implementation. The importance of education cannot be overstated, and access to reliable energy is a critical. . The Sri Lankan Government and the Ministry of Power have launched some programs to promote this clean, renewable energy resource, solar, in collaboration with Sri Lankan sustainable energy authority. This chapter delves into economic aspects of two prevalent solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems: on-grid and off-grid installations in Sri Lankan context. The systems, each ranging from 5 to 5. 5kW, are now fully operational and connected. . “EnergyNet” by Hayleys Solar is an off-grid solar PV system with a battery backup which allows solar power generated during the daytime to be stored, making it ideal for usage during power outages, even during nighttime.
