Cambodia had a total primary energy supply (TPES) of 5.48 Mtoe in 2012.[1] Electricity consumption was 3.06 TWh. About one third of the energy came from oil products and about two thirds from biofuels and waste.[1]
Cambodia has significant potential for developing renewable energy. In 2020, however, the country had no set renewable energy targets.[2] To attract more investment in renewable energy the country could adopt clear renewable energy targets, improve renewable energy governance and facilitate market entry for foreign investors.[2]
Along with other ASEAN member states, Cambodia remains one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change in the world; therefore, it is recommended that the country focuses on developing more renewable energy as part of climate change mitigation policies.[3]
Cambodia controls offshore oil reserves in the Gulf of Thailand; however, the only attempt to extract oil ended in the failure in 2021 of the Apsara field project after production did not meet expectations.[4]
Cambodia's domestic energy supply in 2021 was 9,255 GWh, with 44% hydro, 41% coal, 8% fuel oil, and 6% solar.[5]
Many rural communities are making use of solar power to access electricity. Cambodia had 305 MW of solar installed at the end of 2021, with seven grid-connected projects. Another 700 MW was planned or under construction.[5]
