"One of our key areas of focus in the build-up to COP26 is encouraging a clean energy transition, in particular a shift of investment away from fossil fuels.
In the last 20 years, Cambodia’s energy sector has seen rapid growth both in consumption and electrification of the country. At the end of 2019, 92.7% of households had a connection to the grid compared to only 22.9% in 2010. Despite the progress in the electrification of the country, there still remain many challenges to ensuring a consistent energy supply, keeping electricity rates affordable and increasing the amount of RE in the electricity mix." - Alex Jones
