In December 2024, Vidullanka PLC marked an incredible milestone with the completion of the planting of 100,000 trees at its 9 hydro power plants across the island. This initiative has been a key project for the company’s CSR arm Vidu Saviya: Ratata Sevanak since it’s initiation in 2019.
This achievement reflects the dedication and unwavering efforts of our teams at the power plants, supported by our partners, from the Forest Department, Divisional Secretariats, Grama Niladhari officers, the Central Environmental Authority, the Sri Lanka Sustainable Energy Authority. The project also involved the collaboration of the police, hospital staff, and passionate school children and teachers, and our neighbours.
As we celebrate this accomplishment, we remain focused on ensuring these trees continue to flourish and contribute to a healthier planet. With an impressive 95% survival rate, these trees are now thriving, fulfilling their purpose—offering shade, producing fruits for livelihoods, protecting riverbanks, and enhancing watershed management. This success is not just an endpoint but a foundation for even greater environmental impact!
