Think Piece Publication

Generation Power: The Future of Clean Energy | Issue 02

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the second volume of our Think Piece Publication, marking the remarkable journey of our Clean Energy Fellows in 2025. This year’s cohort produced the 21 think pieces featured in this issue. This collection covers a wide range of topics, drawing upon some interesting regional and global examples to demonstrate to readers that many of the ideas included are already practical, actionable and possible; it just remains for Cambodia to adopt or scale up. We invite you to read and immerse yourself in the thinking of each Fellow. As you turn these pages, you’re not just reading about the clean energy challenges and solutions put forward—you’re witnessing their ambition and passion for a future powered by clean energy.

Generation Power: The Future of Clean Energy | Issue 01

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our first ever Think Piece Publication, marking the remarkable journey of our Clean Energy Fellows in 2024. The think piece component develops fellows into energy thought leaders through three key aspects: critical thinking to analyse complex clean energy challenges, practical application by adapting global trends to Cambodia’s context, and leadership development by contributing original solutions to Cambodia’s energy future. We invite you to sit with each think piece, each a fellow’s meditation on a matter that touches the everyday life of people in Cambodia. It is our hope that this publication will power a future forward, from thought to action.
