The article reports on the progress of Cambodia's first 900-megawatt LNG power plant, with the first phase expected to commence operations by the end of 2026. This increases the demand expectations for LNG as a fuel, particularly in the Southeast Asian region, potentially leading to tight spot supply and rising prices. The growth in demand is favorable for the spot market, but as the project is implemented in phases and is not of globally significant scale, a score of +1.5 indicates a relatively strong positive impact.
