What happened
The government of Sri Lanka recently made policy decisions regarding solar energy, including scrapping two of three schemes that allow rooftop solar systems to connect to the national electricity grid, which weakened new installation demand. Separately, the government is now exploring concessions aimed at domestic rooftop solar users, specifically to introduce relief measures for battery storage systems.

Why it matters
These policy shifts reflect the government's broader effort to reduce Sri Lanka's reliance on conventional power sources and ease the burden on the national grid. The changes affect the supply and demand dynamics within the country's rapidly growing renewable energy sector.
