The Lakwijaya Power Plant at Norochcholai had automatically shut down today due to the tripping of a transmission line from Norochcholai to Veyangoda. The shutdown deprived the national grid of 300MV, the Ministry of Power and Energy said.king kong Thursday, 09 August 2012 02:58 AM
I see people blaming Chinese here. What a stupid people we have in SL? Chinese have the worlds best technologies and its is our MARA installed outdated power-plant from china for high commissions.
meranchi Wednesday, 08 August 2012 01:46 PM
that is like a white elephant, waste of public fund and pocket...i
senavi Wednesday, 08 August 2012 02:40 PM

Manju Wednesday, 08 August 2012 06:39 PM

Fazli Wednesday, 08 August 2012 06:57 PM
Throw the plant & chase all the chinese whatever is their category. We are draining public funds to keep carrying it.
TMA Wednesday, 08 August 2012 07:00 PM
I kinda enjoy this. U stupid Sri Lankans lol
Silva Thursday, 09 August 2012 12:53 AM
Will be interesting to find out how much the promoter of the project earned as his ' fee '.
Wind Power Wednesday, 08 August 2012 01:25 PM
any chance 44MW + 30MW intermittent power might triggered sudden tripping?
sach Thursday, 09 August 2012 03:30 AM
if u go for a power plant or any manufacturing site, always go for german stuff. Both indian and chinese machine suck.

Brand New Plant from China. 5 times broken. Who earn the commission?
Alex Thursday, 09 August 2012 09:43 AM
break down again !!!
it was never working properly !!!
anonymous Friday, 10 August 2012 04:06 AM
A transmission line breakdown? That's pathetic! Do you Identified Flying Objects (IFOs) in the area or something that the transmission line keeps breaking down?
Suj Friday, 10 August 2012 04:13 AM
If so why can't we do it :) don't blame them for the breakdown. Almost everything is made by China these days. We don't do things and we don't let others do as well.
Dadoriya Wednesday, 08 August 2012 09:46 AM
How come a transmission line failure shutdown a power station. Is this report correct?
sack Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:07 AM
Then lakvijaya has not broken down. The transmission line has broken down.
Yehiya Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:11 AM
White elephant. Shutdown the plant.
NADARAJAH SETHURUPAN Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:05 AM
Made by China
miri Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:03 AM
oh no, again
Yohan Perera Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:35 AM
Learning from trial and error...
Ceylonese Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:18 AM
It seems to be the transmision line has fallen down. Otherwise it doesn't take long to restore the line first and start the generation again.
MAXd Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:39 AM
Ayyoh Salli!!!
Em Wednesday, 08 August 2012 08:44 AM
Chinese quality as always.. Just imagine if SL builds a nuclear power plant. God bless the world
Calistus Jayatilleke Wednesday, 08 August 2012 07:59 AM
Chinese magic!
DMirrorFan Wednesday, 08 August 2012 09:48 AM
Now ministry officials may have a group chat and will name it 'meeting'.
Just Another Citizen Wednesday, 08 August 2012 10:02 AM
Your tax payers money at work. Wake up people.
Cynic Wednesday, 08 August 2012 10:37 AM
High time to rename it Mahinda Rajapakse Lakwijaya power Plant.
Notharismama Wednesday, 08 August 2012 10:35 AM
Lakwijaya has broken DOWN! Automatic supply side management system's has not worked!
Sarneris Wednesday, 08 August 2012 10:48 AM
Transmission line shuts down the plant??
Almost like the tail wagging the dog!!
roger Wednesday, 08 August 2012 11:06 AM
Guy who implemented the project with the SL and Chinese Govt is a Billionaire in Rs and a Millionaire in $, Made some good bucks and laughing away
Premalal Wednesday, 08 August 2012 12:20 PM
A transmission line shutting the power plant is like the tail wagging the dog.
Chan chun ho Wednesday, 08 August 2012 12:28 PM
Better to shut down this plant. after 10years operation the maintenence cost will be very high.
