Poipet SEZ to import power
A special economic zone in Poipet City has decided to import electricity from Thailand to ensure a reliable power supply as it expects the influx of more factories and investment. Poipet PPSEZ Co. Ltd. reached a memorandum of understanding with Thailand-based B.Grimm Power Public Company Limited to build power transmission lines from Thailand to the zone in Banteay Meanchey province at an initial total investment cost of about $3 million. Under the MoU, B.Grimm will build 12 kilometers of power transmission lines that will transmit 22 kilowatts of electricity to the Poipet PPSEZ.
