Provinces simultaneously proposed to add a series of renewable energy projects

Ca Mau Provincial People's Committee proposed to supplement power sources and grids, including gas, solar and wind power projects. Specifically, this province proposed 4 LNG power projects with a total capacity of 10,700MW, 24 wind power projects with a total capacity of more than 12,000MW, including 6 offshore wind power projects.

As for solar power, Ca Mau proposed 9 additional projects with a total capacity of nearly 2,900MW with solar power projects combined with breakwaters and solar power combined with aquaculture.

In the central region, Binh Thuan and Ninh Thuan both proposed adding tens of thousands of MW of offshore wind power, supplementing LNG wind power projects. Accordingly, Ninh Thuan proposed to put into the plan about 42,595MW, of which offshore wind power is 21,000MW, and convert 4,600MW of former nuclear power to LNG power, supplemented with stored hydroelectricity.

In the Central Highlands, Gia Lai province, Kon Tum also proposed to continue adding solar and wind power projects and Dak Lak set the goal of becoming an energy center in the Central Highlands.

Dak Lak has proposed to put into power planning 8 with the number of 30 solar power projects with a capacity of about 12,000MW and 60 wind power projects with a capacity of more than 11,000MW.

Northern provinces such as Quang Ninh, Thai Binh, Thanh Hoa... also proposed to add a series of projects. In which, Quang Ninh proposed to put into planning about 5,000MW of wind power with 3,000MW of offshore wind power.

Thai Binh proposed to add 8,700MW of wind power from the proposals of businesses, including wind power projects up to 3,000, 5,000MW.

ABSOLUTELY NO ELECTRICITY LOSS HAPPENED

We can see that most provinces have proposed to add renewable energy power projects with large capacity as the Ministry of Industry and Trade continues to finalize the power sector master plan, especially in the context of Vietnam making a commitment "Vietnam will achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050" at the COP26 conference.

In the document announcing the conclusion of Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh at the conference to collect opinions on finalizing the National Power Development Plan to 2030, with a vision to 2045 (power planning 8), the Deputy Prime Minister handed over the for the Ministry of Industry and Trade to continue researching and perfecting appropriate power source structure options until 2045 on the basis of updating solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, as committed Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh at COP26.
For coal power, the Deputy Prime Minister requested to review this resource planning after 2030 in the direction of converting fuel or not continuing to develop if the project has no constraints and risks causing economic damage.

In particular, Government leaders also asked to consider increasing the scale of offshore wind power and study mechanisms and policies to support the development of this power source. Similarly, for solar power, Mr. Thanh asked to study mechanisms, policies and solutions to use this energy more efficiently and reasonably, including storage technology solutions. electricity.

In addition, the Ministry of Industry and Trade was also asked by the Government leaders to clearly define the criteria for important projects, prioritize investment in planning stages, etc. to ensure publicity and transparency, especially "absolutely not for a power outage.”
