[PHNOM PENH POST]
Cambodian officials yesterday touted the potential for green energy to
meet its goal of bringing electricity to 100 percent of households by
2020.
The Kingdom was looking to develop solar energy,
small-scale hydropower and biomass-fuelled power to meet the target,
said Ministry of Industry, Mines and Energy Secretary of State Sat Samy
yesterday.
Although less than 2 percent of the Kingdom’s
households now use solar power, the technology will be central to a goal
of hooking up 70 percent of households with green energy by 2030.
“We’re looking for private partners to invest in Cambodia’s solar energy, to develop the country,” he said.
Laotian
company Sunlabob won a tender to install 12,000 solar panel systems in
eight Cambodian provinces over the next year, a previous release said.
“We’re
trying to use all advantages from our energy natural resources in order
to supply electricity to all villages in the Kingdom,” said Sat Samy.
Solar power had plenty of potential in Cambodia, perhaps even more than in developed countries, he said.
Some
privately-owned firms, such as Standard Construction & Engineering
Co and Apollo New Energy Corporation of Japan, say they are eager to
expand in rural areas.
“We want to help people in rural areas,” said Standard’s President Yen Srorn at yesterday’s seminar.
