The program has reopened until July 22, 2024 

Sustainable power generation and utilization have become critical global issues, especially in the backdrop of depleting fossil fuel reserves and global environmental impacts. With the sharp increase in demand for electricity in domestic as well as commercial and industry sectors, Sri Lanka has to seriously pay attention to sustainable generation and use of energy to alleviate unfavorable impacts.

Many countries employ qualified personnel as Energy Managers and Energy Auditors to deal with energy-related problems in organizations. Recognizing the importance of this sector and keeping with international trends, the Energy Auditing was recognized in Sri Lanka as a profession by the Government through a Gazette notification (No. 1715/12 July 20, 2011) published under the Sri Lanka Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA) Act No. 35 of 2007. According to the gazette regulations clear career development paths for Energy Managers and Energy Auditors have been established and SLSEA provides national accreditation for these two positions on the basis of specific training undertaken and experience gained on energy management and auditing.
