Database on Renewable Energy projects in Lao PDR released!
Tuesday, 23 February 2010

The Renewable Energy Activity Database (READ) is now online available and can be found in LIRE's download section. The creation of the database was part of assignment “Bioenergy and Renewable Energy for Rural Development and Poverty Reduction”, a joint initiative by SNV and FAO in the Mekong region. LIRE was the local partner organization for the Lao component of the project, and LIRE representatives also participated in the follow-up workshops in Vietnam and Cambodia.

Database - Renewable Energy projects in Lao PDR

The database provides a snapshot of renewable energy projects in Lao PDR, and includes any small-scale renewable energy projects where the primary application is to meet local/domestic energy demand. It identifies key players and programs originating from both the private and public sectors. The READ is intended as a tool for decision makers, implementers and donors in order to help avoid duplication, whilst fostering greater integration of the sector. The database was compiled in October 2009, at which time 73 renewable energy projects were identified as either ongoing or under development.

The data was provided directly by the projects themselves, and the assignment did not allow for independent verification of these. Similarly, LIRE cannot guarantee the database includes an exhaustive list of projects. However, we will strive to update and maintain the file on a regular basis, as new projects and more accurate data become available.

If you have information about a Lao energy project that is currently not listed in the database, or if you would like to correct any data currently presented, please ອີເມວນີ້ຈະຖືກປ້ອງກັນຈາກ ສະແຕມບອດ ແຕ່ທ່ານຕ້ອງເປີດການໃຊ້ງານຈາວາສຄຣິບເພື່ອອ່ານມັນໄດ້. .
