Re: Cambodia struggles to keep the lights on
General Electric, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of coal-fired power plants, announced Monday it would no longer build such facilities.
"... a remarkable exit that will have far-reaching consequences on the coal industry as more and more utilities are increasingly shifting away from coal-fired generation"
"Despite efforts from the administration to bolster the coal industry, market forces have pushed utilities to cheaper, cleaner forms of electricity, with many utilities opting to retire coal-fired power plants early."
"GE will continue to focus on and invest in its core renewable energy and power generation businesses, working to make electricity more affordable, reliable, accessible, and sustainable,” the company said in a release, adding that it will still service existing coal power plants."

(sorry, i know this thread focusses on Cambodia, but imo this is still relevant
we are having a discussion about Kh future energy solutions - and global trends obviously play in. imo)
