Efficiency of Energy

- Loans of DPs focused on the natural resources and energy - National Miodigester Program - Rural Energy Strategy Program (National Gov.) - Rural electrification based on renewable energy (solar lanterns, Jatropha)) Jatropha

Challenges Regarding Energy, Renewable Energies and Rural Energy in Cambodia - Institutional Structure - Policy and Regulatory Framework - Programme Concerns - Access Issues - Financing Concerns - Gender Concerns - Monitoring and Evoluation Framework

Other resources to be increased - Green technology - Forest replantation - Biomass - Biogas - Biofuel - Solar - Win - Hydro - Other Renewable Energy

Efficient circular economy helps protect environment - Since the 1990th, Cambodia’s economic growth around 10% - Plus, revenues from minerals and newly found oil and gas reserves - Although its economic growth, funding support for environmental protection and management is still poor - Land grabbing, illegal logging, illegal fishing and mineral extraction are major concerns - However, local communities with funding support from dev. partners have established fishery and forestry communities.
