Planters’ Association Urges Fair Electricity Tariffs to Sustain Sri Lanka’s Plantation Industry

The Planters’ Association urged a sustainable electricity tariff framework as the CEB has proposed a 13.6% tariff hike for Q2 2026, warning it would raise production costs for tea and rubber processors and hurt export competitiveness. Plantation companies (eg. Talawakelle) are increasingly investing in solar, mini‑hydro and efficiency measures to reduce grid dependence.

Plantations & Agriculture sector: what is happening

Last 30 days to Aug 4, 2026

Tea saw mixed signals: the June national sales average fell to Rs 1,153.49, while June production rose 4% YoY but first-half output was hit by extreme weather and higher fertiliser costs. Exporters gained relief as the US labour-related tariff on Sri Lankan goods was cut to 10%. Meanwhile, new EU sustainability rules are driving compliance efforts, and plantations report organised theft of high-value crops hurting competitiveness.
