Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Matchmaking among garment manufacturing industries and the clean energy service providers under EU-Switch Garment Project

Phnom Penh, 13 March 2023 – Switch Garment project, co-implemented by GGGI, TAFTAC and Geres hosted an exhibition to showcase its mid-term achievement and to strengthen connectivity between clean energy service providers and garment manufacturers in Cambodia. The event took place at the premise of Textile, Apparel, Footwear & Travel Goods Association in Cambodia (TAFTAC).

The event was graced by H.E. Say Samal, Minister of Environment of the Kingdom of Cambodia and H.E. Carmen Moreno, the Ambassador of the European Union to Cambodia. More than 200 participants including the high officials and representatives of the Ministry of Environment (MoE), Ministry of Industry, Science, Technology & Innovation (MISTI), Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF), international brands, garment manufacturers, energy service providers, financial institutions and development partners attended the event.

Switch Garment is now in its third year and via this event as an engaging platform, the project aimed to communicate the achievements with its key stakeholders including the policy measures, the energy audits and investment commitment made through the recommendations of the project.
The event also brought together the garment manufacturing industries and energy service providers under the same roof to enable them to know their respective demand and service offerings.

Ms. Shomi Kim, Country Representative of GGGI, the lead implementer for Switch Garment said: ‘’To date, the project has conducted 50 energy audits, the most ever been conducted within a single project in Cambodia. Based on the energy audit results, we have walked our member factories through their energy consumption profile and measures to increase energy saving.
As a result, we have secured almost 2 million USD investment made by the member factories which is an inspiring sign for the greening efforts being realized in the garment sector.’’
