The Electricity Authority of Cambodia (EAC) has said Cambodia will not face the shortage of electricity during this dry season due to falling demand caused by COVID-19.

The Cambodian government has issued a plan on reducing electricity tariffs for firms in four key sectors – manufacturing, agriculture, commercial and service – for five months to beef up the economy plagued by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Prime Minister of Cambodia Hun Sen called on people to use electricity sparingly, fearing the country could lack up to 400 MW in available electricity during this dry season.
