Net Metering in Sri Lanka: How It Works & How You Can Benefit

Common Solar Panel Problems & How to Fix Them in Sri Lanka
As Sri Lanka rapidly embraces renewable energy, especially solar power, thousands of homeowners across the island are investing in rooftop solar panel systems to combat rising electricity bills, gain energy independence, and reduce their carbon footprint. But one key component often overlooked in this process is the solar inverter—the heart of your solar system.
Among the top global inverter brands, Sineng Solar Inverters have emerged as the preferred choice for residential solar power systems in Sri Lanka. Backed by advanced technology, world-class reliability, and outstanding efficiency, Sineng inverters are engineered to deliver optimal performance under Sri Lanka’s unique climate and grid conditions.
At Eximius Power and Energy, we are an authorized reseller and EPC contractor for Sineng Solar Inverters in Sri Lanka, providing complete end-to-end solutions for homes, businesses, and industries. This article will explore why Sineng is a smart and future-proof investment for any Sri Lankan home going solar.
🔌 What Is a Solar Inverter and Why Is It Important?
A solar inverter is responsible for converting the direct current (DC) electricity produced by your solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity that your home appliances use.
It also handles several critical functions:
- Synchronizing with the national grid (CEB/LECO)
- Managing power output and energy flow
- Ensuring system safety with overload and surge protection
- Monitoring real-time performance through smart software
In other words, your inverter directly determines how much usable energy your solar system produces, how reliable it is, and how much you save.
☀️ Why Choose Sineng Solar Inverters for Your Home in Sri Lanka?
With a growing number of inverter brands on the market, why do solar experts consistently recommend Sineng for homes in Sri Lanka?
✅ 1. Industry-Leading Efficiency (Up to 99%)
Sineng inverters are globally recognized for their high conversion efficiency—up to 99%. This means you get more electricity from the same number of panels, maximizing ROI and reducing dependency on the grid.
✅ 2. Engineered for Tropical Climates
Sri Lanka’s coastal humidity, tropical heat, and unpredictable monsoon rains can affect the performance of standard solar components. Sineng inverters are built with robust, weather-resistant casings, IP65-rated protection, and smart cooling systems designed for harsh environments.
✅ 3. Smart Monitoring & Remote Access
Modern homeowners want visibility and control over their energy. Sineng’s smart inverter platforms come with Wi-Fi connectivity, app support, and web-based dashboards that let you monitor:
- Daily energy production

- System health and faults
This makes it easier to ensure long-term system performance and respond quickly to any issues.
✅ 4. Seamless Compatibility with Net Metering
Sineng inverters are fully compatible with Sri Lanka’s net metering policies. Whether you’re working with CEB or LECO, Sineng systems pass utility requirements and allow you to export excess electricity to the grid—earning monthly credits and reducing your electricity bills.
✅ 5. Wide Range of Models for Every Home
From small homes with a 3kW load to large villas with 15kW+ systems, Sineng offers a diverse range of inverter models to suit any scale. Options include:
- Single-phase and three-phase inverters
- Hybrid inverters for homes using solar + batteries
- Off-grid inverters for remote areas
This versatility makes Sineng ideal for both urban and rural Sri Lankan homes.
