I recall reading somewhere the Indonesian stuff is dirty, more polluting brown coal as opposed to black coal.

80MW wind farm project in Kampot hits EdC price snag
Hin Pisei | Publication date 18 May 2021 | 11:09 ICT

Content image - Phnom Penh Post
French-owned The Blue Circle’s 80MW wind power investment project in Kampot province has hit an impasse, as its proposed $0.068 per kWh tariff rate for the national grid exceeds what state-run energy supplier Electricite du Cambodge (EdC) is willing to pay, according to a Ministry of Mines and Energy senior official.

The Blue Circle specialises in wind farms and is the largest provider of renewable energy in Southeast Asia. The company currently operates in many ASEAN countries, most notably in Vietnam.

Victor Jona, the director-general of the ministry’s General Department of Energy, told The Post on May 17 that the company has been negotiating a power purchase agreement with EdC for “more than a year”, the last step before reaching a formal agreement to build the wind power station on Bokor Mountain in Kampot.

With electricity rates trimmed each year since 2015 as per government policy, Jona said EdC requires a price under the $0.068 per kWh quoted by the company to provide consumers with more affordable electricity.

“The Blue Circle has yet to begin construction, as the company is still waiting for a successful price negotiation with Electricite du Cambodge,” he said, adding that the firm will submit proposals and technical specifications to the ministry for review to start construction, depending on results of talks with EdC.

While Jona claims that the ministry “strongly supports” renewable and other green energy projects, he stressed that, in the interest of consumers, it also insists on low-cost and stable sources of electricity.

The rubber is starting to hit the road everywhere.

It's a bit like the Berlin wall.
You keep pushing and pushing for years and nothing seems to happen - then everything changes in a flash.

Essay from Asia EDGE
Securing the Mekong Subregion’s Future through Transitioning to Renewable Energy
by Huong Le Thu
July 10, 2021

Asia EDGE fellow Huong Le Thu examines the rapidly growing demand for energy in the Mekong and the role that outside powers can play in helping the subregion achieve its energy goals, particularly by supporting regional countries’ efforts to move beyond hydropower.

Energy demand continues to grow in the populous and economically vibrant region of Southeast Asia, even as the need to address climate change and CO2 emissions becomes clearer. Energy profiles, security, and management in the subregion are diverse and unequally distributed, but one commonality is rapidly growing demand for energy. Experts estimate that electricity demand will double from 2010 to 2040.[1] To match this growth, some $1.7 trillion of cumulative investment in energy supply infrastructure to 2035 is required, including 60% in the power sector, with these power needs increasingly met with renewable and sustainable energy sources. The coming energy transformation in the Mekong is important, and getting it right is essential for the subregion’s sustainability, resilience, and security. The transformation to sustainable and clean energy is not only an imperative to growth but increasingly also a condition for national security.
