The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) has announced that it is making substantial progress in launching the Maha Oya Pumped Storage Hydropower Project, marking Sri Lanka's first-ever large-scale energy storage system, often referred to as a “Water Battery. ”. The Maha Oya Pumped Storage Power Station is a 600 MW pumped-storage power station being developed in the Aranayaka and Nawalapitiya areas of Sri Lanka. Upon completion, it will be the country's first energy storage facility, and one of the largest power stations in Sri Lanka in terms of nameplate. . The project underscores Sri Lanka's commitment to a greener future by reducing dependence on fossil fuels and ensuring long-term energy security. The initiative aligns with the country's ambitious goal of sourcing 70% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030.
