Cambodia’s Profile in Power Sector The First Mekong Energy and Ecology Training May 11-30, 2009, Thailand TONN KUNTHEL, BY HOUR & PHALLUY
General Information • Cambodia is situated in the Lower Mekong region, with an area of 181,035 square Kilometers • 84% of population in rural areas lacking of electricity and 16.41% of total households have access to electricity • National strategy by 2020, all villages will be able to access electricity • Potential of hydropower is high, more than 10,000MW (Source: EAC 2008)
Generation of Electricity • More than 95% of electric power generation is from diesel power plant. • 13 fuel power plants generate electricity to provinces (Sihanouk, Siem Reap, Takeo, Kampot, BMC, PreyVeng, Stung Treng, Pursat, Kg. Cham, R.Kiri, Kg. Chhnang) • Electric power import from Thailand to BMC, Siem Reap, BTB) • Electric power import from Vietnam to Kg. Cham, Svay Reang, Kampot, Kandal, Kratie)
GDP GROWTH • Cambodia economic growth was only about 5.2 percent in 2008, which was down from a growth rate of 10.2 percent in 2007. • The global crisis impacts on Cambodia during the last quarter of 2008, especially on the garment industry, tourism and construction.
PEAK DEMAND FROM EAC, 2007 • Peak demand supplied by the Phnom Penh system was 188.1 MW. • Peak demand forecast was 205.8 MW

Electricity Cost • In Phnom Penh, electricity can cost up to $0.18 per KWh, • Provincial centers electricity costs average around $0.30 per KWh, • In remote locations that are served by small- scale IPPs, prices can be far higher – example in some districts outside Battambang town the cost is reportedly $0.75 to $1.25 per KWh.
Installed Capacity by kind 2007 HYDRO : Hydropower DO : Diesel Oil HFO : Heavy Fuel Oil Data from EAC : Hydropower 49.707 GWh (3.68%), Diesel/HFO 1,294.356 GWh (95.93%), Wood/Biomass 5.253 GWh (0.39%)
