The Cambodian government has awarded Japan-based Toshiba Plant Systems and Services Corporation (TPSC) the concession to construct a coal-fired power generation project in Preah Sihanouk province. The new power plant is expected to address the energy deficiency caused by the shelving of the Stung Cheay Areng Dam in Koh Kong province’s Areng Valley. TPSC is the first Japanese company to secure a power plant construction contract in Cambodia.
