Cambodia is a key player in the global market for exported rice and the rice-producing sector has been a pillar of national development plans to foster food security and accelerate economic development. The uptake of clean technologies needed to achieve the desired outcomes, however, has been hampered by a lack of finance and awareness of the benefits among producers.

Background
There are currently approximately 200 existing diesel mini-grids in Cambodia and the same amount again will be needed by 2015. They often face very high production costs due to inefficient fossil-fuel powered generators and to the poor design of distribution systems. These constraints hamper the ability to increase energy access in the poorest rural areas.
