National Highways Sector Project - Additional Financing The additional financing expands the current project's output by rehabilitating and upgrading an additional 62 kilometers of national highways, comprising six link roads that provide access to the new Southern Highway in Western and Southern provinces.  The Southern Highway is the country's first controlled-access expressway, and the Colombo-Galle section of 95 kilometers (km), cofinanced by the Asian Development Bank (ADB)  and the Japan International Cooperation Agency, will become operational in 2011. By enhancing connectivity and reducing access time for the communities served, the proposed improvement is critical to ensuring that the development impact of the Southern Highway is optimized and its benefits reaped in a timely way. Collectively, the communities served will benefit from improved, lower-cost, and faster transport services and thereby obtain improved access to economic opportunities and social services. It  facilitates economic growth and contribute to reducing disparities in Sri Lanka, consistent with the government's goal of equitable economic growth.
Integrated Road Investment Program-Tranche 2 Tranche 2 will help improve about 2,548 kilometers (km) of rural access roads to all-weather standards, and about 118 km of national roads--sustaining connectivity between rural communities and socioeconomic centers in Sri Lanka. It will also address some of the challenges highlighted in the Sustainable Transport Initiative, such as climate adaptation, road safety and promoting effective gender mainstreaming. Tranche 2 is part of Government's country-wide rural road investment program aimed at providing all-weather road connectivity to currently unconnected rural communities in Sri Lanka.
Green Power Development and Energy Efficiency Improvement Investment Program - Tranche 1 In recent years Sri Lanka,has improved its energy sector and achieved a national electrification ratio of 94% (2012) as 0d with 29% in 1990. However, a longer-term challenge is to reduce its high dependence on expensive fossil fuel energy. The energy sector struggles to (a) meet growing demand for electricity at a low cost and acceptable reliability rates, and (b) attain long term sustainability. The share of thermal oil-fired energy in the power generation mix has increased from 6% in 1995 to 59% in 2012 that creates a high energy cost base. Demand growth has been mostly met by expensive oil-fired thermal plants. This is not a viable and sustainable solution to the country s 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 is the only way to correct this situation. The transmission network needs expansion and modernization, particularly in the former conflict-affected areas in Northern and Eastern provinces. The 33 kilovolt (kV) medium voltage (MV) network needs to expand power supply into rural areas where many households have poor reliability and inadequate quality of electricity supply. For sustainable functioning of the power sector, the government pursues financial, managerial, and institutional reforms in line with the Sri Lanka Electricity Act, 2009.
Jaffna and Kilinochchi Water Supply and Sanitation Project The loan will implement a project to provide safe drinking water to the population of the city of Jaffna and its surrounding urban and rural area, estimated to contain 300,000 people, and sanitation facilities to approximately 80,000 people.
Skills Sector Enhancement Program - Additional Financing The Asian Development Bank (ADB) approved the program for $100 million equivalent on 28 March 2014 to support the first phase (2014-2016) of the government's 7-year Skills Sector Development Program (SSDP), 2014-2020.  The SSDP aims to build an efficient skills development system to meet labor market demand. The proposed additional financing will enable the government to implement the SSDP through 2020 and add value by scaling up successful program interventions and accelerating the pace of reform initiatives.
Southern Road Connectivity Project ADB and the Government of Sri Lanka are working together to help people and freight move more easily and efficiently between the country's southern region and the commercial capital of Colombo. The Southern Road Connectivity Project is supporting the government's plans for an integrated road network that will accelerate economic growth, improve safety, and reduce travel time and cost. The project is supporting the improvement of 33.5 kilometers of national highways that link to three interchanges on the Southern Expressway. The project is also helping Sri Lanka's Road Development Authority develop a long-term expressway plan, carry out a feasibility study for 250 kilometers of national highways, and undertake detailed engineering for about 200 kilometers of national highways. About 1.1 million residents in the immediate area are expected to benefit from the project as well as another 4.6 million more living in the Colombo, Kalutara, and Galle districts served by the Southern Expressway.
Clean Energy and Network Efficiency Improvement Project The project  includes three components: (i) transmission infrastructure; (ii) network efficiency improvements; and (iii) pilot solar rooftop power generation investments in the Eastern, North-Central, Central, Northern, Southern, and Western provinces of the country.
Mahaweli Water Security Investment Program - Tranche 2 The Mahaweli Water Security Investment Program (the investment program) will accelerate the economic activities of Sri Lanka's northern dry zone region by transferring surplus water from the Mahaweli river basin for irrigation, drinking and commercial purposes.  It will develop bulk water conveyance and storage infrastructure planned under the North Central Province Canal Program (NCPCP), a high priority program of the government that will support completion of the Mahaweli Development Program (MDP), which started in 1973.
Key components of the MDP were completed in the 1980s, notably several irrigation systems and large dams for hydropower; however, the planned components for water transfers to the northern dry zone were not implemented largely because of the prolonged conflict. After the conflict ended in 2009, the government prioritized completion of the MDP by initiating the NCPCP. The investment program supports the government's sector objective of ensuring water availability to water users, providing water in adequate quantities with improved management, enhancing productivity and water user efficiency, and addressing the spatial variation of water availability, climate change and disaster vulnerability, as described in the Public Investment Programme 2017-2020.  The outcome will be access to water resources for agricultural and drinking purposes in project areas secured.  
ADB and the government signed the financing framework agreement (FFA) for the investment program on 23 April 2015. On 24 June 2015, the Board approved the provision of loans to Sri Lanka under a multitranche financing facility (MFF) of up to $453 million equivalent to be implemented between July 2015 and December 2024. The MFF comprises three tranches and uses the time-slicing approach with individual tranche outputs covering pieces of the overall facility's outputs: (i) new and improved water conveyance and storage infrastructure constructed; (ii) systems for improving water resources management productivity developed; and (iii) multidisciplinary investment program management operational. Output 1 under the investment program will implement three projects: (i) the Upper Elahera Canal Project (UECP) comprising about 101 kilometers (km) of water conveyance infrastructure linking the existing reservoirs at Kalu Ganga, Moragahakanda, Huruluwewa, Eruwewa, and Mahakanadarawa, which supply existing irrigation and town supply schemes; (ii) the North Western Province Canal Project (NWPCP) that will construct about 91 km of new and rehabilitated conveyance channels and two new reservoirs at Mahakithula and Mahakirula to transfer water from the Dambula Oya River and Wemedilla reservoir to command existing irrigation and town supply schemes; and (iii) the Minipe Left Bank Canal Rehabilitation Project (MLBCRP) that will increase storage in its head reservoir and rehabilitate about 74 km of existing canals to improve conveyance and reliability of service to existing farmers.
COVID-19: Responsive COVID-19 Vaccines for Recovery Project under the Asia Pacific Vaccine Access Facility The project will provide the Government of Sri Lanka with immediate and flexible financing to support the national COVID-19 vaccination program through APVAX and the regular country allocation. The APVAX allocation comprises a rapid response component (RRC) to support the purchase of Asian Development Bank (ADB) eligible COVID-19 vaccines, while the project investment component (PIC) financed by the regular country allocation will support strengthening of the vaccination information dissemination and monitoring systems, vaccine transportation capacity, and vaccine-related medical waste management.

The project is aligned with the ADB's Strategy 2030 vision for achieving a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, sustainable Asia and the Pacific.  The project contributes to addressing remaining nonincome and income poverty and to reducing inequalities, accelerating progress in gender equality, strengthening governance and institutional capacity, fostering regional cooperation and integration, tackling disaster resilience, and enhancing environmental sustainability in Sri Lanka.
Second Integrated Road Investment Program-Tranche 2 Tranche 2 will finance the second slice of projects of the time-slice multitranche financing facility (MFF) approved on 29 September 2017. The investment program will improve the accessibility of the road network in Sri Lanka's rural areas, and thereby increase the involvement of the rural population in nationwide economic and social development. It will upgrade and maintain about 3,400 kilometers (km) of rural access roads to all-weather standard; rehabilitate and maintain to a good condition about 340 km of national roads in Eastern, Northern, Uva, and Western provinces; and improve the capacity of road agencies with respect to safeguards, road safety, maintenance, research capacity, and road design and construction.
SRI: LOAN TO COMMERCIAL LEASING COMPANY LIMITED The ADB assistance is a direct loan of up to $7.5 million to Commercial Leasing Company Ltd. (CLC). The loan was used for providing leasing facilities to small and medium-sized companies, especially to support business in rural areas in Sri Lanka. The ADB assistance has strengthened the leasing industry further and provided funding resources and financial services to the SME sector in Sri Lanka. The loan to Commercial Leasing Co. Ltd. (CLC) has provided access to long-term funds and thereby enabled them to promote alternative financing instruments to SME entrepreneurs to promote their operations, increase profitability and enhance their competitiveness.
Greater Colombo Water and Wastewater Management Improvement Investment Program - Tranche 1 The Investment Program will be implemented over a period of 8 years, from 2013 to 2020. It will be phased as follows: (i) $84 million for Project 1 in 2012 and (ii) $80 million for Project 2 in 2013, both focusing on reducing NRW and improving water service efficiency in Colombo; and (iii) $100 million for Project 3 in 2015; and (iv) $36 million for Project 4 in 2016, both of which will include improvements in wastewater services and expansion of the water supply and wastewater services to other areas of Greater Colombo. A similarly phased approach will be taken within the tranches and in NRW reduction efforts. NRW reduction will be tackled first in areas with greater physical and commercial losses, and therefore requiring more critical investment in infrastructure replacement. These include Mattakkuliya, Modera, Kotahena, Grandpass, and Bloemendal in Colombo North Area; Fort, Slave island, Kollupitiya (part), and Union Place in Colombo Northwest Area, and Welikada, Boralla, Dematagoda, Maligawatta (part), and Maradana in  Colombo Northeast Area. These areas will be covered by the first tranche. During this period essential studies and modeling under the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) master plan will also be conducted to inform subsequent tranches.
Strengthening the Regional Development Bank Project The project would provide long-term financing that would directly fund $50 million of subloans to micro and small enterprises outside of Colombo and be structured to provide the regulatory capital that would leverage an additional $533 million of lending.
Clean Energy and Access Improvement Project The Project has three investment components: energy efficiency improvement, renewable energy development, and access for the poor.

The energy efficiency improvement component will include (i) system control modernization (part 1); (ii) transmission system strengthening (part 2); (iii) distribution substations augmentation (part 3); (iv) demand-side management for municipal street lighting (part 4); and (v) consulting services for system control modernization (part 5).

The clean energy development component will be network capacity augmentation for renewable energy projects (part 6).

The access for the poor component will include (i) transmission system strengthening in the Eastern Province (part 7) and (ii) rural household connection (part 8).
Science And Technology Human Resource Development Project The project will support the government in developing the applied science and technology faculties in four universities to nurture a new breed of technology-oriented graduates equipped with market relevant skills and entrepreneurial spirit. It will address lack of financing for priority degree programs, which are in high demand from students and industry. The project will provide innovative and industry-relevant technology education and research facilities, help quality curriculum design and academic staffing aligned with international standards, and provide competitive grant scheme and capacity development opportunities.
Rooftop Solar Power Generation Project To increase solar power generation and speed up implementation of the Battle for Solar Energy program, the Government of Sri Lanka requested ADB to provide a credit line that would enable institutional and domestic customers to finance installation of solar rooftop PV generation facilities. Technical and commercial frameworks will be improved to encourage the development of solar renewable resources that would add value in developing solar rooftop installations. The credit line will provide the required financing with preferential terms that will stimulate solar rooftop generation development. As part of the project, technical guidelines and standards for solar rooftop systems will be established.

The outputs of the project include: (i) debt funding for the solar rooftop power generation increased, (ii) solar rooftop market infrastructure and bankable subproject pipeline developed; and (iii) capacity and awareness of stakeholders, including the Central Bank of Sri Lanka, participating financial institutions (PFIs), commercial and domestic sector customers, increased. 

These outputs will result in the following outcome: clean, sustainable power generation enhanced.  The project will be aligned with the following impact: access to clean and reliable power supply in Sri Lanka enhanced by 2020 (Sri Lanka Energy Sector Development Plan for a Knowledge Based Economy 2015-2025).
Health System Enhancement Project The project will contribute to the government's development objective to ensure a healthier nation by supporting the development of a more responsive and comprehensive primary health care (PHC) system in Sri Lanka. It will enhance planning and delivering of essential PHC to geographically and socioeconomically deprived populations of Central, North Central, Sabaragamuwa, and Uva provinces. The project will (i) inform and operationalize government PHC reform initiatives, (ii) improve underserved communities' access to primary health services, and (iii) address selected gaps in core public health capacities in line with the International Health Regulations (IHR).
