Australia unlocks investment for Cambodia’s energy future

Australia unlocks investment for Cambodia’s energy future

As global energy market and supply chain disruptions impact Cambodia’s energy sector, Australia is scaling its efforts to partner for long-term energy resilience.  

 

Australia is supporting energy utility SchneiTec Jupiter to issue an infrastructure bond valued at an estimated US$150 million to develop a 350-MW solar farm. The project will strengthen Cambodia’s energy security and reduce reliance on imported fuels. 

 

This builds on the recent launch of Cambodia’s Infrastructure Bond Prakas, approved by the Ministry of Economy and Finance with Australia’s support. This landmark mechanism will generate significant domestic financing for critical infrastructure. 

 

Together, these efforts reflect Australia’s commitment to Cambodia’s clean energy future, powering sustainable growth and a more resilient economy.
