6. 2. RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY PLAN 2.1. RE Plan The RGC has established Four long-term objectives for electricity-generating renewable energy technologies:  5 % of new electricity generation, or about 6 MW, will be supplied by renewable electricity technologies, including 3 hydropower mini-grids and some proven, clean and efficient biomass/biogas electricity generation, 3 viable renewable energy technologies (RET) businesses and 50-100 trained RET personnel. All this should be achieved in the first 5-year period;  100,000 households (HH) will be supplied by electricity from renewable technologies on a competitive basis. Of this volume, the goal is to get 45,000 HH electrified by the Rural Electricity Enterprises (REE) in the first 5-year period;  10,000 households will be served by Solar Home Systems (SHS). This should be achieved in the first 5-year period;  A sustainable market for renewable electricity systems will be developed and evidenced by households willing to purchase renewable electricity products and services in a competitive business environment.

7. 2.2. EE Plan We have a plan as follow:  Looking for fund from other institutions to continue EE projects in towns and provinces  Dissemination through leaflet to the Cambodians on effective use of electrical appliances, gas stoves, petroleum, to contribute to poverty reduction  Training programs both within and outside the country  Joining the competition in the ASEAN EE Building Programme We have Energy Labeling Program to inform the consumers of energy intensive devices, such as air-conditioners and refrigerators, etc. 2.

8. 2.3. Strategy on Renewable Energy-based Rural Electrification in Cambodia The Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC), through the implementation of the National Rural Renewable Electricity Policy, shall: i) Endeavor to provide access to reliable, safe and environmentally clean electricity services to rural areas, at an affordable cost to the national community; ii) Act as a market enabler and encourage private sector participation in providing rural renewable electricity services; iii) Provide effective legal and regulatory framework for enabling access to reliable, safe and clean electricity services to rural areas, at an affordable cost to the national community; iv) Encourage the most efficient systems for generation, transmission and distribution of electricity from clean and renewable energy sources, to enable a rational electricity tariff policy through promotion of differentiated tariffs based on cost recovery principles; v) Promote renewable electricity systems for rural applications, as part of a national portfolio of grid and off-grid technologies, provided they are the least-cost option for the national communities; and vi) Ensure adequate resources and appropriate institutional mechanisms to empower the poor, particularly those in rural areas. 2. RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY PLAN

9. 2.4. Rural Electrification Fund REF is the result of a join effort of the Royal Government of Cambodia and the World Bank, with the goal of encouraging the private sector for investment in electricity supply to the rural population, with smart subsidies scheme for reason of social equity. Agreed electricity price sold to the rural population would be such that the rural entrepreneurs will still make project. Investment funds will come from grants and loans with low interest rate from various credit and financing institutions. 2. RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY PLAN
