Abstract

The world’s primary energy demand has increased significantly due to the industrial revolution and population growth, which create the demand for primary energy. The COVID-19 pandemic situation significantly damages the world’s energy network, which critically affects developing countries like Sri Lanka. Therefore, this paper has been developed to discuss an important framework for the use of solar energy as a suitable energy source for various industrial operations. The application of solar thermal energy and solar PV systems into industrial processes can minimize the economic cost of energy usage in the country. The points discussed in this conceptual mini-review can help policymakers identify and explore industrial windows that can be structured with solar energy for a sustainable energy future in Sri Lanka.
