FAQs 6

Can China and Laos collaborate on a solar power project?

In what is the first large-scale solar photovoltaic project in Laos, CGN will collaborate with more than 70 Chinese and Laotian enterprises to establish a benchmark for electricity cooperation under the Lancang-Mekong Cooperation framework. The clean energy base is a vital power source supporting China-Laos power interconnection.

How many solar power plants are there in Laos?

However, by the end of last year, only eight solar power projects and four biomass power plants were in operation, with an installed generation capacity of 116 MW, representing just 1% of the country’s total electricity production. As of early 2023, Laos produced power from 76 hydropower dams, with another 43 still under construction.

Can commercial wind power be developed in Laos?

Commercial wind power capacity, however, could see limited development due to typically low wind speeds. Laos has also struggled to maintain grid integrity, which could cause future grid curtailment as it seeks to develop more renewable energy sources.

How much does electricity cost in Laos?

To its credit, state-run electricity company Electricité du Laos (EDL) is trying to encourage more solar power development by offering a tariff rate of USD 0.08 per kilowatt-hour (kWh). That’s higher than the rate for hydropower-generated electricity, which ranges from USD 0.05 to 0.06 per kWh.

Should Laos rely on hydropower?

At first glance, it would appear that Laos’ overreliance on hydropower would be beneficial in terms of energy independence and a negligible carbon footprint, but challenges remain. On the one hand, hydropower is considered a clean energy source.

Should Laos manage its own power grid?

A better path forward would be for Laos to manage its own power grid to increase the efficacy of its growing electricity exports, along with much-needed revenue, and help develop its domestic grid for more solar power on its path to net zero in 2050. Tim has been working in energy markets in the Asia-Pacific region for more than ten years.
