Geres

Geres is an international development NGO established in 1976 and active in Cambodia since 1994. The organisation is dedicated to improving living conditions and addressing climate change through innovative energy solutions. Geres operates in over 10 countries, implementing projects focused on energy transition, energy demand management, renewable energy deployment, and capacity building.

In Cambodia, Geres has partnered with the Institute of Technology of Cambodia (ITC), a leading technical university recognised for its expertise in engineering and technology.

The Capacity for Cambodia Energy Efficiency (CapCEE) project is a collaborative effort jointly managed by Geres, ITC, and the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME). Geres leads the overall coordination, ensuring that the project objectives are met and that key stakeholders are engaged. ITC handles the technical implementation, which includes the development and delivery of specialised training programs. MME provides regulatory support, facilitates collaboration with government entities, and ensures the alignment of the project with Cambodia’s national energy policies. The local management structure is composed of representatives from Geres, technical experts from ITC, and officials from MME, all working together to achieve the project’s objectives.
