HayWind Receives First 25 MW of Turbines for Mannar Wind Farm

HayWind One Limited, the wind energy arm of Hayleys Fentons Limited, has achieved a major milestone in the development of its 50 MW Wind Farm Project in Mannar, with the first 25 MW out of the total 50 MW wind turbines successfully arriving at the Trincomalee Port.

Once operational, the project is expected to generate significant renewable power capacity while delivering cumulative savings of approximately Rs. 100 billion in imported fossil fuel costs over its estimated 20-year lifecycle, strengthening national energy security while supporting Sri Lanka’s transition towards cleaner, more cost-effective energy generation.

Manufactured by Envision Energy Technology Pte Ltd, the project’s 5 out of 10 wind turbines will now be transported to the Mannar project site.

The transfer of turbine components from Trincomalee is expected to continue over the next three months.

The delivery operation represents one of the largest and most technically demanding renewable energy transport exercises undertaken in the country.

Oversized turbine blades, tower sections and nacelles will be transported across multiple districts through carefully coordinated heavy-haul logistics supported by extensive engineering assessments and route planning, ensuring the safe movement of components to the Mannar site.
