Paradise Toys accelerates towards sustainable future with high-impact ...
Hybrid solar power systems at Kobeigane, and on-grid solutions at Wattala and Madurankuliya In a decisive step towards sustainability and operational resilience, Paradise Toys Ltd., a leading Sri Lankan manufacturer and exporter of baby educational soft toys, has successfully deployed a state-of-the-art 60 kWp hybrid solar power system at its Kobeigane facility, enhancing energy stability across its operations in Wattala and Madurankuliya. Delivered in partnership with Regen Renewable, this milestone initiative goes beyond a conventional energy upgrade, representing a strategic transformation designed to future-proof operations against power disruptions, rising electricity costs, and an increasingly unpredictable energy landscape. This hybrid solar technology stands out as a proactive and future-focused solution, combining solar power generation with intelligent battery storage to ensure a continuous, reliable energy supply even during grid outages. This powerful combination enables the facility to harness solar energy during the day while storing excess energy for use during peak demand periods or grid failures. The result is a highly optimised energy ecosystem that delivers both cost savings and operational resilience. Beyond immediate financial benefits, the system also contributes significantly to reducing the company’s carbon footprint, aligning with global sustainability standards and increasing appeal among environmentally conscious international buyers. Driving this successful implementation is Regen Renewable, a trailblazer in Sri Lanka’s renewable energy sector. Since introducing hybrid solar systems to the country in 2018, the company has played a pivotal role in reshaping how businesses approach energy management. With a proven track record that includes the successful delivery of a $ 150,000 United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)-funded solar project in the Kurunegala District, Regen Renewable continues to empower organisations with innovative, reliable, and scalable energy solutions tailored to local challenges. A spokesperson for Paradise Toys Ltd. commented: “This investment marks a critical step in our journey towards operational resilience and sustainability. In an environment where energy uncertainty can disrupt entire supply chains, having a dependable power source is invaluable. Hybrid solar allows us to maintain uninterrupted production, manage costs effectively, and deliver consistently to our global partners.” Regen Renewables ...
Push for solar park in Sri Lanka's elephant terrain raises concern
While renewable energy expansion is critical for Sri Lanka's energy security and to reach its climate goals by reducing fossil fuel dependence, the Hambantota solar push highlights growing tension between clean energy development and biodiversity protection in Sri Lanka.
