Why should Laos invest in a floating solar plant?

“It’s also a privilege to support Laos in the development of what is projected to be one of the world’s largest floating PV plants.” The solar plant will cover an area of 3.2km 2, which corresponds to less than 1% of the reservoir’s area at full supply level.

How did the energy demand projections of the Lao PDR work?

The energy demand projections of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR) up to 2040 were implemented applying the econometrics approach wherever possible. The energy demand projections up to 2040 applied historical correlations of final energy consumption and economic activity from 2000 to 2015.

What should the government do about energy eficiency in Lao PDR?

Finally, the government should consider implementing the following actions: Promote and implement energy eficiency and conservation programmes in all sectors. Establish a fund to support energy eficiency and conservation programmes and energy service companies. emissions. Include the findings of this study in Lao PDR’s energy policy and plan.
