Solar energy in Cambodia is becoming an increasingly important part of the country''s long-term energy and climate change mitigation strategy. Solar power in Cambodia currently only makes up around 7% of the country''s energy mix, significantly lagging behind hydropower and non-renewable sources. However, considering the country''s historical energy

Solar energy in Cambodia is the country’s second most promising clean energy source behind hydropower. Hydropower remains Cambodia’s most developed renewable energy source but also has its own challenges – such as yearly variability due to droughts and floods.
With these opportunities in mind, the government has set ambitious targets for expanding solar energy in Cambodia, aiming to inject 2 GW of solar energy into the grid by 2030. This goal is supported by a range of policies designed to facilitate the growth of the solar sector, including incentives for investment and development.
The National Solar Park is built upon the partnership between the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and Electricite du Cambodge (EDC), Cambodia's national power utility. It is regarded as a convincing example demonstrating the potential to develop cost-effective large-scale solar PV in Cambodia by uniting the public and private sectors.
Cambodian households and businesses are also increasingly investing in behind-the-meter (BTM) solar energy systems as they’re much easier and faster to deploy and costs are lower than utility grid rates, market analysts highlight.

Cambodia’s geographical location and climate conditions position it as a solar power hotspot with potential that surpasses many of its regional neighbours. Studies show that the country receives a daily solar irradiance of 5 kWh per square m and an average of eight hours of sunlight daily.
