DFCC Bank to provide affordable solar power solutions to SLASSCOM members

DFCC Bank has entered into a partnership with SLASSCOM, the apex body representing the IT/BPM industry in Sri Lanka, to work together to provide accessible and affordable financing for sustainable power generation for the sector, through special financing schemes, concessionary rates, and other exclusive benefits.

Acknowledging the crucial need for such a scheme at this time, Thimal Perera - Director/CEO, at DFCC Bank said (in a media release): "Ensuring sustainable, reliable, and even self-sufficient power generation for this sector is essential at this juncture. Thus, we have worked together with SLASSCOM to present the industry with tenable sustainable solutions. Through this arrangement, industry stakeholders can access special financing schemes and preferential interest rates along with a host of other benefits, for investments into sustainable power generation, exclusively from DFCC Bank.”

DFCC Bank began its pioneering journey as a financier of sustainable energy in Sri Lanka in 1988, when it funded a solar PV module assembly plant, along with a plethora of other projects in the decades since, including waste-to-energy projects, wind and solar power generation, hydropower and Sri Lanka’s first ever biomass-based combined heat and power project.
