DFCC Bank announced its strategic partnership with David Peiris Renewable Energy to promote the adoption of solar energy solutions among individuals and businesses. 

This collaboration marks a significant milestone in addressing the growing demand for electricity through innovative and sustainable energy solutions.

Solar energy is no longer just an option; it is necessary for a brighter and greener future. As a renewable and environmentally friendly power source, solar energy has become critical for Sri Lanka’s energy security, helping reduce reliance on fossil fuels, lower electricity bills and contribute to a sustainable future.

To make the transition to solar energy more accessible, DFCC Bank is offering a highly competitive fixed interest rate of 11.50 percent for five years, with an extended loan tenure of up to 10 years. This financing solution is designed to help customers install solar panels with minimal upfront costs, ensuring affordability and predictability in repayments while enabling long-term savings.

DFCC Bank Senior Vice President Retail Banking and SME Aasiri Iddamalgoda expressed, “Our partnership with David Peiris Renewable Energy reflects DFCC Bank’s commitment to sustainability and community empowerment. By enabling affordable financing for solar energy solutions, we aim to drive positive environmental change while also helping individuals and businesses reduce their energy costs and carbon footprint.”

Meanwhile, David Peiris Renewable Energy (Pvt.) Ltd Chairman Jayantha Ratnayake said, “Collaborating with DFCC Bank allows us to provide greater accessibility to solar energy solutions across Sri Lanka. This partnership will help accelerate the country’s transition to renewable energy, empowering communities and businesses to adopt sustainable practices that benefit both the environment and their bottom line.”
