The blackouts in Phnom Penh are due to deficit in electricity production in Vietnam.

The Cambodian authority explained that the rolling blackout which is currently taking place in Phnom Penh is due to the shortage of electricity production in Vietnam, as well as network maintenance operations which are also taking place in Vietnam.

The contract signed by Electricité du Cambodge (EdC) planned for 220 MW of electricity to be provided to Cambodia [by Vietnam]. However, Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) is only able to provide 100 MW because Vietnam has difficulties producing energy.

On the other hand, EdC could not compensate for the shortage of electricity because its hydroelectric production site in Kampong Speu is not functional due to lack of water. Besides private homeowners, garment factories are complaining about the drop in productivity.

In Phnom Penh, EdC counts 230,000 customers.
