To keep electricity prices stable in 2023, the government will provide $150 million in subsidies In order to stabilize electricity rates and guarantee adequate power supplies for homes and businesses in the face of persistently high global energy prices, the government has continued to provide $150 million in subsidies to the state-owned Electricite du Cambodge (EDC) in 2023. According to Keo Ratanak, Director-General of the EDC, the development of the country's electrical industry is enough and there is no shortage. He cited examples of disturbances like excavating, which can come into contact with power lines and result in power outages, rather than a shortage of electricity as the reason of certain power outages. The EDC provided subsidies to stabilize electricity prices last year totaling about $100 million. (Source: Khmer Times)
