Hayleys Solar, the renewable energy arm of Hayleys Fentons Ltd., has successfully completed the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a groundbreaking 6.9 MW rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system for Access Logistics Ltd., in Negombo – the largest single solar roof installation ever completed in Sri Lanka.
Achieved within an impressive timeframe of just three and a half months, this milestone highlights Hayleys Solar’s capability for delivering complex projects with speed, precision, and innovation.
The installation features 11,609 solar panels, 20 inverters, and two advanced smart transformer stations, introducing the nation’s first-ever smart transformer technology for rooftop solar. This state-of-the-art system is expected to offset approximately 7,088 tons of CO2 annually, significantly advancing Access Logistics’ green energy goals while reinforcing Hayleys Solar’s pivotal role in Sri Lanka’s renewable energy journey.
The solar yield of the installation has exceeded initial expectations, delivering lasting benefits to Access Logistics as well as the wider community and Sri Lanka’s renewable energy landscape.
Access Logistics Director Srimal Fernando said: “Partnering with Hayleys Solar on this groundbreaking project has been a truly rewarding experience. Their exceptional execution and technical expertise enabled us to bring this large-scale solar system online in a remarkably short time. This installation will play a vital role in enhancing Sri Lanka’s energy resilience and advancing the country’s sustainability goals.”
Hayleys Fentons Managing Director Hasith Prematillake said: “We are proud to have led this groundbreaking project, which introduces new technology for solar rooftops, sets a new record for a single roof solar installation, and aligns with our commitment to driving sustainable energy solutions.”

Despite the scale and complexity of the installation, our team executed it with exceptional speed and precision, reflecting our expertise in delivering large-scale solar solutions.
