Training Hub of Renewable Energy TechnologiEs for Sri Lanka/ THREE-LANKA

Description

The total primary energy supply in Sri Lanka has increased substantially and the electricity demand growth is also recorded as 6% per annum. These growths during the last decade has created a considerable local impact in terms of energy supply security, air pollution, environmental pollution, water scarcity, damage to national heritage and having a direct impact on human life in particular. As a result of three decade-long internal conflict, the lack of development in infrastructure facilities within the Northern Province and the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka have created enormous gap compare to the Southern part of the country. This has directly affected to skill labour availability in the conflict affected areas and created a living standard deference. Aligning Sri Lanka with Goal 7 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN, it is expected to reduce country’s dependence on fossil fuels to below 50% of the primary energy supply by 2030. The skill shortage is act as a barrier for archiving expected sustainable goals. As Sri Lanka have enormous potential to generate the required energy supply form renewable energy resources, it is highly critical to identify and address the existing skill level gaps with regards to renewable energy generation. As the outcome of this project five training centres will be developed across the country ( Northern, Eastern, Southern, Western and Central Provinces of Sri Lanka) and eLearning materials are expected to developed for provide training to three main categorise groups, which has listed in its Report on “Skill and Occupational Needs of Renewable Energy 2011” various kinds of skill requirements for different renewable energy sector. It is expected that THREE -LANKA project will contribute for developing skills levels in all the categorise groups in Sri Lanka starting from students, graduate engineers to project managers in the field of Renewable technologies.
