Modelling shows that Solar PV will yield significant economic benefits for Cambodia over conventional (Thermal and Hydropower) generation technologies. Five scenarios for the development of Cambodia's power system from 2020-2040 were modelled. They replaced some conventional plants with a higher uptake of Solar PV.
Cambodia approves 23 power sector projects, including 2 energy storage plants, 12 solar projects. - EnergyTrend Cambodia approves 23 power sector projects, including 2 energy storage plants, 12 solar projects.
But for 2032 onwards, Cambodia would need the remaining around $6.7b to fund hydrodams, solar plants, and battery energy storage systems projects. “This is actually an indication that Cambodia is looking to attract more investment into its power sector,” said Thoo.
Cambodia has a high potential of untapped solar energy. This policy brief provides a case study for Cambodia, how solar could satisfy future load growth with reliable and affordable electricity without compromising on the resilience, reliability and affordability of electricity supply.
Banking on energy efficiency In a bid to establish sector-specific energy efficiency policies, Cambodia has instituted the NEEP. This strategic policy aims to curtail total energy consumption by a minimum of 19% by 2030, in contrast to a business-as-usual scenario.
Ambiyah Abdullah, senior office of the Energy Modelling and Policy Planning Department at ACE, said the private sector will play a crucial role in Cambodia's energy security as the current government policy allows their involvement. “The private sector involvement is really crucial because we need a lot of means, a lot of investments.
