📈 HayWind Accelerates 50MW Mannar Wind Farm as All Turbines Arrive in Sri Lanka

HayWind One Ltd. (wind energy arm of Hayleys Fentons Ltd.) has received all 10 wind turbines at Trincomalee Port, marking a major milestone for its renewable energy project on track for completion by December 2026. • Project Scope: Adds 50MW of renewable capacity to the national grid using Envision Energy turbines featuring 110-metre towers and 76-metre blades. It is one of Sri Lanka's largest single-site wind installations. • Economic Impact: Expected to deliver ~Rs. 100 Billion in cumulative savings by cutting imported fossil fuel costs over its 20-year lifecycle, directly supporting foreign exchange conservation. • National Context & Employment: Logistically handled by Hayleys Advantis and driven entirely by local engineers. The project underscores Sri Lanka's growing domestic capability in large-scale infrastructure while generating local employment and advancing the national climate transition.
