Breaking Through Power Shortages: GSL ENERGY
Signals from Cambodia''s energy storage market As Cambodia''s solar power installation capacity continues to rise, distributed photovoltaic-storage systems will become an important pathway
However, considering the country's historical energy mix, the existing solar capacity appears positive. As of 2011, Cambodia had no solar power plants, and solar energy was not a part of the country's energy mix. Cambodia's current installed solar capacity is slightly over 400 MW, but the country is targeting 3.1 GW by 2040.
That tracker also reveals 620 MW of capacity is on the way from two solar farms currently under construction, with an additional four installations planned. Cambodia is also set to enhance its renewable energy infrastructure with two new storage projects, according to Minister of Mines and Energy Keo Rottanak.
One of the promising traits of solar energy in Cambodia is its cost. The average electricity price for solar power is around USD 0.03 per kW, significantly lower than that of coal, which is USD 7.7 per kW.
Aligned with achieving sustainable agriculture, energy and general improvement in livelihoods and living conditions, Cambodian Rice Federation (CRF) secretary-general Moul Sarith reportedly said that increasing solar power generation would help reduce electricity costs and boost the Kingdom's exports.
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.

In 2018, Cambodia introduced a solar generation regulation, a new driver for the country's solar PV system development. Cambodia's grid-scale solar development started with just a 10 MW pilot in 2017.
