With a population of 21.4 million and a land area of 65,610 square kilometers (km2), Sri Lanka is a high population density country with 326 persons per km2 (40th in the world, according to the World Population Review). The country’s per capita GDP was $4,065 in 2017. Sri Lanka entered the upper middle-income category of countries (as defined by the World Bank) for the first time this year. Energy supply and use. Sri Lanka used 12.8 million tons of oil equivalent energy in 2017. At $7.5 of economic output per kilogram of oil equivalent in 2014, Sri Lanka ranks high among countries that report similar per capita economic output. Petroleum, imported as crude oil and finished products, provides the highest share (43% in 2017) of energy to the national economy, followed by biomass (37%), coal (11%), hydro (6%), and new renewable energy (3%). The country has succeeded in delivering modern energy sources to its whole population; petroleum products and bottled liquefied petroleum gas are widely available.

  • CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area
    Urban Transport System Development Project for Colombo Metropolitan Region and Suburbs CoMTrans UrbanTransport Master Plan Final Report CHAPTER 4 Perspective of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1 Identification of the Colombo Metropolitan Area 4.1.1 Definition The Western Province is the most developed province in Sri Lanka and is where the administrative functions and economic activities are concentrated. At the same time, forestry and agricultural lands still remain, mainly in the eastern and south-eastern parts of the province. And also, there are some local urban centres which are less dependent on Colombo. These areas have less relation with the centre of Colombo. The Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined in order to analyse and assess future transport demands and formulate a master plan. For this purpose, Colombo Metropolitan Area is defined by: A) areas that are already urbanised and those to be urbanised by 2035, and B) areas that are dependent on Colombo. In an urbanised area, urban activities, which are mainly commercial and business activities, are active and it is assumed that demand for transport is high. People living in areas dependent on Colombo area assumed to travel to Colombo by some transport measures. 4.1.2 Factors to Consider for Future Urban Structures In order to identify the CMA, the following factors are considered. These factors will also define the urban structure, which is described in Section 4.3. An effective transport network will be proposed based on the urban structure as well as the traffic demand. At the same time, the new transport network proposed will affect the urban structure and lead to urban development.

  • Water for Energy
    Water for Energy H. S. Somatilake' 1.1 General information The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) is a government owned and controlled utility of Sri Lanka that takes care of the general energy facilities of the island. The Ministry of Power, and Energy is the responsible ministry above the CEB. The CEB comes under statutory duty to develop and maintain an efficient, coordinated and economical supply system of electricity. Therefore the CEB has to: Generate or acquire supplies of electricity; Construct, maintain and operate the necessary works for the generation of electricity; Construct, maintain and operate the necessary works for the interconnection of Generating Stations and Sub-stations; Construct, maintain and operate the necessary works for the transmission of electricity in bulk from Generating Stations and Sub-stations to such places as may be necessary from time to time; Distribute and sell electricity in bulk or otherwise. The ideas behind these obligations sound right, but the problem of the CEB is the shortage of generating capacity. The current installed capacity of 1838 MW (the CEB owns about 90% of it, the private sector owns the rest) allows only a generation of about 6.800 GWh, while far more electricity is needed Because of this, Sri Lankan energy users often have to reckon with power cuts. A 'power cut schedule' (among other things mentioned on the website of the CEB) indicates the dates and time of the power cuts for the next week. This is not an encouraging sign while the demand for electricity has been growing at an average annual rate of 8% and is expected to grow at the same speed in the foreseeable future.

  • Economic and Social Infrastructure
    3 ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE easures aimed at improving the provision of economic and social infrastructure continued, with progress in energy supply, transportation and telecommunication activities as well as health and education services. A mechanism has been established Mto ensure cost-reflective domestic fuel pricing. Accordingly, against the backdrop of elevated global crude oil prices, the first major revision of domestic petroleum prices, since January 2015, took place in May 2018, and a series of regular revisions followed. The dependence on thermal power in electricity generation was somewhat limited during the first seven months of 2018, due to increased hydropower generation supported by favourable weather conditions. However, electricity tariffs that are in general below the cost recovery levels highlight the need for expediting the adoption of a cost-reflective electricity tariff as well. With regard to transport infrastructure, several projects to improve the road and expressway network continued. Port activities continued to record significant growth while the performance of the civil aviation sector improved, particularly with increased tourist arrivals. Meanwhile, the government continued to provide social infrastructure, increasingly supported by private sector participation in such service provision. Initiatives were taken to address some of the resource constraints in the education sector, with greater emphasis on technical and vocational education. The health sector continued to support the wellbeing of the people, although there was a surge in the incidence of some communicable diseases, namely influenza and leptospirosis, during the period under review. Moreover, social safety nets continued to support economically vulnerable sectors of the society. However, amidst the demographic transition and structural reforms that are taking place in the country, the need for better targeting of social security schemes should also be addressed.

    EFFECTS OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT ON FLOODS (A CASE STUDY FROM KESBEWA URBAN COUNCIL- COLOMBO DISTRICT– SRI LANKA) B.A.R VidushanI1 ; E.N.C. Perera 2 1 Post graduate student at University of Peradeniye, Faculty of Agriculture, Kandy, Sri Lanka Email: [email protected] 2Sanasa Campus ltd.; Paragammana, Hettimulla, Kegalle, Sri Lanka Email: [email protected] KEY WORDS: urbanization, urban vegetation cover, urban flood frequency, runoff coefficient, impermeable surfaces ABSTRACT: Over the past decades, the Sri Lanka has become an increasingly urban society. These changes are significantly observed from the rapid conversion of rural area to peri –urban or urban areas. The changes in land use associated with urban development affect flooding in many ways. The increase in artificial surfaces due to urbanization causes an increase in flooding and flash flooding frequency due to poor infiltration and reduction of flow resistance.Kesbewa Located at 20 km from Colombo, Kesbewa Urban Council (KUC) with its 152,657 inhabitants is rapidly being developed and urbanized. Historically, Kesbewahas been an agricultural area endowed with the excess water resources of the bordering Bolgoda lake. A relatively large area of paddy lands can still be found in its lower-lying zones. However, as a result of the continuous growth of Colombo and expansion of the urban boundaries of Colombo Metropolitan Region, Kesbewa Urban Council became an attractive residential area for commuters, now hosting over 244,000 inhabitants (2012 census) on 49 km2 of land. Many of the agricultural areas were gradually converted to non-agricultural areas, resulting in about 60% of the land now being used for residential purposes and related amenities.
