Energy Transition situation in Cambodia Published: 10 August 2022 Energy status In a nutshell In 2004, Cambodia's electricity grid was dominated by fossil fuels -primarily heavy-fuel oil and diesel; by 2013, it was completely transformed with 82% renewable sources: mostly hydropower. This essential progression may indeed reverse: Cambodia plans to import coal power from Laos to meet its demand in 2030, thereby increasing - to 74% or 3/4s - the electricity in its national grid from non-renewable sources. While Cambodia is moving in this direction, the government has also committed to net-zero by 2050, making this plan difficult to achieve as energy emissions keep increasing. By Sokphalkun Out
