“GROWTH” Policy 1:
Priority of application
“GROWTH” Policy 2:
Standard Power Purchase Agreement
IPPs enter into a SPPA with CEB that defines the terms
and conditions for the generation and sale of power.
“GROWTH” Policy 3:
Tariff based on avoided cost methodolgy
The rate for delivery of energy output is published by CEB every year,
This is a two-part tariff. The rate for the dry season (February to April)
is higher than that for the wet season (May to January).
“GROWTH” Policy 4:
Tax and import duty concessions
Commercial
lending under the
RERED Project of the World Bank
Tariff Structure
The growth of the SHP sector was not based on a single policy
statement, but was the result of a series of far-sighted and timely
decisions taken by GoSL that created a conducive environment for
private sector investment to flourish.
The industry has now matured and this lax framework requires planning
and streamlining for the country to reap the optimum from her
indigenous small hydro resources.
