| Project Rationale and Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy | Sri Lanka has improved its energy sector performance and achieved a national electrification ratio of 98% in 2014 compared with 29% in 1990._However, high dependence on expensive fossil fuel energy continues. Sector challenges include meeting growing demand for electricity at a low cost and acceptable reliability, and attaining long-term sustainability. The increase in the share of thermal oil-fired energy in power generation, from 6% in 1995 to 35% in 2014, creates a high cost base and is not a viable and sustainable solution for energy security and environment protection in the long term. Diversification of the generation mix primarily to renewable energy sources, improved network efficiency, reduced technical losses, and supply- and demand-side management are required. The transmission network needs to be expanded and modernized. Improvement of the 33-kilovolt (kV) network is required to improve system reliability and expand power supply into the rural areas to serve poor households. | ||||||||||||
| Impact | The impact will be increased access to clean and reliable power supply. |

| Summary of Environmental and Social Aspects | |
|---|---|
| Environmental Aspects | Tranche 2 is classified as environmental category A. Following the environmental assessment and review framework of the investment program,_a full EIA for the 220 kV MannarNadukuda transmission line, including an environmental management plan (EMP), was prepared and disclosed on ADB's website on 7 July 2016. The IEE reports for other transmission and distribution lines and substations were prepared. Any update in the EIA and IEE reports resulting from a change in project scope will be disclosed. Mitigation measures were proposed in the EIA and EMP to minimize habitat and species disturbance as a result of construction, and potential bird collision with the overhead transmission line during operation. Implementation of a biodiversity management plan_ensure no net loss of biodiversity. Potential environmental impacts of other subprojects are site-specific; mostly temporary during construction; and readily mitigated by adherence to national and international environmental standards, design criteria, and management practices as set out in the EMP. |
| Involuntary Resettlement | The project is classified as category B for involuntary resettlement. No physical displacement was envisaged. Private land acquisition was required only for one substation and several gantries, involves 2.87 hectares with three affected people, and being_procured through negotiated settlement. Transmission and distribution lines mostly have temporary impacts in terms of loss of crops and trees. No significant resettlement impact is expected due to the land acquisition and tower erection along the right-of-way. Construction is being carried out avoiding intensive cropping seasons. The project's social impacts have been adequately assessed, and compensation is being paid to the affected people commensurate to the impacts. |
| Indigenous Peoples | Since no indigenous peoples will be affected by the project, it is classified as category C for indigenous peoples. |
| Stakeholder Communication, Participation, and Consultation | |
| During Project Design | Public consultations were conducted with local communities, government authorities and nongovernment organizations, including ornithological societies, and their feedback was taken into account during project design._Public concerns were identified in the EIA, and mitigation measures were incorporated into the EMP. Social surveys and consultations were undertaken in accordance with the SPS and the resettlement framework. |
| During Project Implementation | Public consultations with stakeholders including government authorities and local communities are ongoing. |
