Cambodia's grid-scale solar development started with just a 10 MW pilot in 2017. Today, nine solar power plants are connected to the national grid and are capable of producing up to 444 megawatts (MW), according to the Stimson Center's Mekong Infrastructure Tracker.
Today, nine solar power plants are connected to the national grid and are capable of producing up to 444 megawatts (MW), according to the Stimson Center's Mekong Infrastructure Tracker. That tracker also reveals 620 MW of capacity is on the way from two solar farms currently under construction, with an additional four installations planned.
has approved four new large-scale solar power projects with 140 MW of total capacity. The projects, which were submitted by the local group Schneitec Infinite, Chinese panel maker Risen Energy, Ray Power Supply, nd Green Sustainable Ventures, will be constructed on a Build-Own
Power in provincial cities is more expensive and less reliable than the supply in Phnom Penh. In very remote rural areas, the only source of electricity may be a small portable generator.
