Rooftop solar owners asked to switch off systems voluntarily

The National System Operator (Private) Limited has requested rooftop solar panel owners to voluntarily switch off their solar power systems until 3.00 p.m. on Saturday (30) to help maintain the reliability and stability of the national electricity grid during the Vesak holiday period.

The request follows a significant drop in electricity demand across the system, requiring careful management of power generation and supply to ensure stable grid operations.

The National System Operator said public cooperation is essential to maintaining a continuous and safe electricity supply for all consumers during the period.

Accordingly, rooftop solar owners have been urged to comply with the temporary request in support of national grid stability. (Newswire)
