Hayleys Solar Delivers 4,036 kW Solar Installation Across Six Locations for Pussalla Meat Producers

Large-scale project strengthens sustainable operations across Sri Lanka’s poultry sector

Hayleys Solar, Sri Lanka’s No. 1 solar solutions provider, has completed a 4,036 kW solar photovoltaic (PV) installation for Pussalla Meat Producers (Pvt) Ltd across six farm locations, supporting the company’s transition to renewable energy and advancing sustainability within Sri Lanka’s poultry sector.

Pussalla Meat Producers (Pvt) Ltd is a leading poultry producer in Sri Lanka, operating across the entire value chain, from breeding and feed production to processing and island-wide retail. The newly implemented solar installation plays a critical role in supporting these energy-intensive operations by improving reliability, efficiency, and long-term cost sustainability.

Implemented across Pussalla’s farm locations in Ganewatta, Hiripitiya, Mangalaeliya, Mahakumbukkadawala, Dompe, and Nagawilluwa, the multi-site solar project enables the company to meet a substantial portion of its energy requirements through renewable energy sources.

Beyond operational efficiencies, the solar installation delivers significant environmental benefits. Collectively, the project is expected to generate clean energy, resulting in an annual reduction in carbon emissions by approximately 3,392,247 tonnes, making a meaningful contribution to national sustainability objectives.

Commenting on the project, Mr. Dilshan Wewita, Managing Director of Pussalla Meat Producers (Pvt) Ltd, said: “As a fully integrated poultry producer, energy reliability is critical to our operations. This multi-site solar installation is a key component of our broader sustainability initiatives, supporting our transition towards renewable energy while strengthening business continuity and operational resilience across all locations. We chose Hayleys Solar for their proven expertise in delivering large-scale, multi-location solar projects.”

“Delivering a project of this scale across multiple locations reflects our expertise in executing complex solar solutions for energy-intensive industries. We are proud to support Pussalla Meat Producers in advancing their sustainability journey while contributing to the broader adoption of renewable energy in Sri Lanka,” added Mr. Roshane Perera, Chief Executive Officer of Hayleys Solar.
