China has played a crucial role in securing Cambodia’s energy security, which is a key element for socio-economic development, Cambodian officials and academics said on June 14.
Ministry of Mines and Energy spokesman and director-general for Energy, Heng Kunleang, said Chinese-invested projects such as hydropower dams, coal-fired power plants, and solar power plants accounted for 65.7 percent of the total energy generated in Cambodia.
