The Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) planned to launch the next phase of e-Billing system from 01 July, 2023.
During this phase, customers residing in the Dehiwala, Kelaniya, and Sri Jayewardenepura areas will exclusively receive their electricity bills in a digital format, either through SMS or email.
This marks the discontinuation of the conventional practice of issuing printed paper bills.
“We also encourage all our customers nationwide to promptly register for this convenient service, as the issuance of printed paper bills will gradually be suspended in the coming months,” said G. I. D. H. K. Ranasinghe, Additional General, CEB.
Ranasinghe asked to register for the new system via SMS, please type REG<space>followed by your A/C Number and send it to 1987. To register online, pleasevisithttp://ebill.ceb.lkand follow the instructions.
“We kindly request your attention and cooperation to ensure the successful implementation of the e-Billing system. This initiative is expected to save approximately 100 million sheets of paper annually. In light of this significant environmental impact, we invite all our customers to join us in embracing this digital transformation and take advantage of the CEB’s digital services ahead of the mandatory rollout,” he added.
