The Asia Power Sapugaskanda Power Station (also sometimes referred to as Asia Power Station) is a 51 MW thermal power station in Sapugaskanda, Sri Lanka. Planning for the fuel oil-run power station dated back to 1994, when the Ceylon Electricity Board issued a tender for an IPP project for 50 megawatts. Construction of the plant began in 1996 and was commissioned in June 1998, with a PPA of 20-years. The power station utilizes eight Deutz 16V BVM 640 generating units.
