Introduces first-ever smart transformer technology to the nation’s rooftop solar installations
Hayleys Solar, the renewable energy arm of Hayleys Fentons Limited, has successfully completed the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a groundbreaking 6.9 MW rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system for Access Logistics Private Limited in Negombo – the largest single solar roof installation ever completed in Sri Lanka. Achieved within an impressive timeframe of just three and a half months, this milestone highlights Hayleys Solar’s capability for delivering complex projects with speed, precision, and innovation.
The installation features 11,609 solar panels, 20 inverters, and 2 advanced smart transformer stations, introducing the nation’s first-ever smart transformer technology for rooftop solar. This state-of-the-art system is expected to offset approximately 7,088 tonnes of CO₂ annually, significantly advancing Access Logistics’ green energy goals while reinforcing Hayleys Solar’s pivotal role in Sri Lanka’s renewable energy journey.
The solar yield of the installation has exceeded initial expectations, delivering lasting benefits to Access Logistics as well as the wider community and Sri Lanka’s renewable energy landscape.
