Synogen commissions one of Sri Lanka’s largest rooftop solar projects

Synogen, a clean energy engineering and technology company, has successfully commissioned one of Sri Lanka’s largest rooftop solar photovoltaic projects, a 6.4 MWp installation for Best Pacific Textiles Lanka (BPTL).

Now fully operational at BPTL’s manufacturing facility in Pannala, the rooftop solar system supplies a significant portion of the plant’s daytime electricity requirements through clean, renewable energy. The project reduces reliance on the national grid while supporting lower carbon emissions across Sri Lanka’s export-oriented manufacturing sector.

Designed and executed to international standards, the project demonstrates the feasibility of deploying large-scale rooftop solar solutions within complex industrial environments. The system is expected to generate millions of kilowatt-hours of clean energy annually, supporting BPTL’s sustainability commitments while enhancing energy efficiency and operational resilience.

The successful commissioning reflects Synogen’s broader mission to enable cleaner and smarter energy ecosystems through insight-led, technology-enabled and precision-engineered solutions across the power, mobility and storage spectrum.

Synogen was established as a joint venture between the Sino Lanka Group and Atman, combining strong local execution capabilities with strategic investment strength and a long-term infrastructure perspective. While renewable generation remains a core pillar, the company’s approach extends beyond asset deployment.

With a highly customisable digital platform, Synogen provides advanced data analytics that go beyond conventional SCADA systems and inverter portals, enabling smarter business decisions. Designed to reduce downtime and maximise generation, the platform is supported by Synogen’s in-house servicing team, ensuring energy assets remain continuously optimised, adaptive and future-ready.

The BPTL rooftop solar installation now stands as a reference project for Sri Lanka’s industrial sector, demonstrating how renewable energy can be implemented at scale without disrupting core operations, while delivering measurable environmental and economic value.
