The 40kW on-grid solar power system benefits the students receiving vocational training at the centre as well as devotees from all around the island that visit the temple, and helps the two institutions to reduce their electricity costs.
The donation by the two companies flows from a strategic collaboration between Commercial Bank and Hayleys Solar to provide concessionary terms under the Bank’s ‘Diribala Green Development Loan’ scheme for businesses to purchase solar power systems from Hayleys Solar with a number of exclusive benefits.
Pictured here at the donation of the solar power system are Commercial Bank Managing Director/CEO Mr. Sanath Manatunge, the Bank’s Chief Operating Officer Mr. S. Prabagar, Hayley's Solar Managing Director/ CEO Mr. Hasith Premathilake and the Director General of the Tertiary and Vocational Education Commission Dr. K. A. Lalithadheera unveiling the commemorative plaque.
