Constraints of CEB Grid to Absorb Renewable Energy Sample Clauses

Constraints of CEB Grid to Absorb Renewable Energy. Sri Lanka’s small hydroelectric potential is centered on three provinces: Central, Sabaragamuwa and Uva. Owing to the attractive prices offered by CEB and the country experience in the development of hydropower potential, investor enthusiasm has been largely focused on hydroelectric SPPs. CEB has twelve GSs located in these three provinces, and adjacent provinces, to which hydroelectric SPPs are connected: Badulla, Balangoda, Deniyaya, Kiribathkumbura, Kosgama, Mathugama, Nuwara Eliya, Rantembe, Seethawaka, Ratnapura, Ukuwela, Wimalasurendra. Out of these twelve GSs, CEB is no longer issuing XxXx for small hydro SPPs to be connected to the following nine GSs, owing to the firm capacity being exceeded by the XxXx/SPPAs already active: Badulla, Balangoda, Deniyaya, Nuwara Eliya, Rantembe, Seethawaka, Ratnapura, Ukuwela, Wimalasurendra. Out of the above, the capacity constraint at Deniyaya is being relieved through another project, and accordingly, the existing capacity at eight GSs is a severe handicap in Sri Lanka’s plan to rapidly harness renewable energy for electricity generation. XXXx are no longer issued by CEB to prospective small power producers whose small hydro developments would feed power to any of these eight GSs. Therefore, augmentation of these eight GSs (or other alternative feed-in transmission infrastructure) remains a high priority for Sri Lanka to develop the small hydroelectric potential to the maximum possible extent, with far-reaching and long-term economic and environmental benefits. As it would be explained in detail later, in this subproject, CEB proposes to expand the capacity of seven of the eight grid substations within the existing GS premises itself, and the expansion of one GS (Rantembe) will not be at the same site but will be associated with a new transmission line and a new GS built at Mahiyangana. In general, the absorption capacity of each GS presently limited to 25 W will be raised to 50 MW with the proposed capacity expansion. Specific details of existing and planned capacity after the proposed augmentation, are given in chapter 2 of this report.
