Range anxiety is a thing of the past. Discover how Sri Lanka's charging network is expanding, from fast chargers on the Southern Expressway to solar-powered home solutions.
The Backbone of Electric Mobility
An EV is only as good as its charger. Fortunately, Sri Lanka's charging network is growing faster than ever. From the Southern Expressway to the hills of Kandy, access is improving.
Types of Charging Available
- Level 1 (Home Charging): Slow but effectively free if you have solar. Plug in overnight, wake up with a full tank.
- Level 2 (Public AC): Found in supermarkets and malls (Food City, Keells). Ideal for topping up while you shop.
- Level 3 (DC Fast Charging): The game changer. Get 80% charge in 30 minutes while you have a cup of tea.
Solar Powered Charging (සූර්රය බලශක්තිය)
This is the "Golden Combination" for Sri Ranka. With our abundance of sunlight, pairing an EV with a home solar system means your running cost is virtually zero. The CEB's new tariff schemes are also encouraging off-peak charging, stabilizing the national grid.
