HNB PLC has entered into a strategic partnership with Hayleys Solar, the solar energy arm of Hayleys Fentons Limited through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), aimed at supporting the wider adoption of solar energy solutions among customers in the domestic as well as Commercial & Industrial (C&I) sectors. The MoU was formally executed at the HNB Head Office, with senior leadership from both organizations present.
Through this collaboration, customers who seek financing through HNB will be able to access high quality solar energy solutions delivered by Hayleys Solar, supported by structured and customer focused financing facilities. The partnership is designed to make solar adoption more practical by easing financial constraints and offering long-term affordability. Customers will benefit from flexible repayment periods of up to seven (7) years, along with competitive interest rates linked to the selected repayment tenure. These financing features are intended to enable households and businesses alike to transition to clean energy solutions with greater confidence and financial stability.
Beyond the immediate customer benefits, the partnership underscores a shared commitment by HNB and Hayleys Solar to environmental sustainability and energy resilience. By encouraging greater use of solar power, the initiative supports Sri Lanka’s national renewable energy objectives, including improved energy security, reduced carbon emissions, and the development of a more sustainable energy ecosystem.
