Announcement Positions

Announcement Description

Solar Green Energy (Cambodia) Co., Ltd called “SOGE”, registered in December 2013 to work in the Renewable Energy Sector, especially in the Solar Energy field, aims to increase the use of green energy in an area of Cambodia. SOGE, a private company specializing in clean energy products, has identified three main challenges in Cambodia. Firstly, 80% of people in rural areas lack access to clean energy or the grid. Secondly, the cost of electricity in Cambodia is higher compared to neighboring countries. Lastly, there is a high cost associated with water for agricultural irrigation due to outdated pumping techniques that rely on fossil fuels, leading to CO2 emissions. For nearly 20 years, SOGE has been actively addressing these issues by promoting clean energy technologies and supporting smallholder farmers. SOGE’s efforts have resulted in increased productivity, cost savings, improved income generation, and overall well-being of farmers.

Through the support of partners and other stakeholders, we have been implementing the installation of solar water pumping stations for farmers in the community. Therefore, the recruitment of finance staff is to join forces in implementing the finance section of each project that SOGE is implementing and plans.
