About Laos
Laos is a landlocked country located in Southeast Asia, rich in natural beauty and cultural heritage. One of the country's key environmental features is its low carbon dioxide emissions due to its reliance on hydropower for electricity generation.
Laos has abundant rivers and mountains that provide an ideal environment for hydropower. The majority of energy consumption in the country is met through hydropower, which is the main reason for Laos' low carbon dioxide emissions.
In addition, Laos exports electricity to neighboring countries such as Thailand and Vietnam, which are experiencing a rapid increase in energy demand. This has brought economic benefits to Laos as well.
Laos is increasingly gaining attention as a country that values the environment and has adopted an energy policy that is environmentally friendly, while also being rich in natural beauty and cultural heritage.
