According to Vietnamese media reports, Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh said recently that the previously set photovoltaic power generation target for 2031-2045 was "too high" and should be appropriately lowered to make room for wind power generation.
In late February this year, Vietnam's Ministry of Industry and Trade proposed to set the country's installed power capacity at 146,000 megawatts from now until 2030, which is 9,000 megawatts less than the plan announced in November last year. The ministry also said that by 2045, Vietnam plans to have 352,000 megawatts of installed capacity, of which photovoltaics will account for 25 percent.
According to data from the Electric Power Company of Vietnam (EVN), as of 2021, Vietnam has ranked among the "Top 10 Global Photovoltaic Power Generation", reaching 16,504 MW, accounting for 2.3 percent of the world's total.
Ir-rapport iddikjara wkoll li l-pjan ġenerali għall-iżvilupp tal-elettriku fil-Vjetnam għadda minn erba 'rawnds ta' reviżjonijiet peress li l-ewwel abbozz ġie sottomess mill-Ministeru tal-Industrija u l-Kummerċ Vjetnamiż f'Marzu tas-sena li għaddiet, u t-trab għadu ma qagħadx. Fid-dawl ta 'dan, il-Ministeru tal-Industrija u l-Kummerċ tal-Vjetnam talab lill-awtoritajiet ogħla biex jipposponu l-ħin speċifiku ta' implimentazzjoni tal-pjan għat-tieni kwart ta 'din is-sena.
The same plan says that by 2045, renewable energy will account for 70 percent to 75 percent of Vietnam's national electricity capacity. At the 2021 UN climate change conference, Vietnam pledged to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
Id-direttur tal-Amministrazzjoni tal-Elettriku u l-Enerġija Rinnovabbli tal-Vjetnam, Huang Thien Dung, qal ukoll reċentement li l-Vjetnam se jħaffef it-tranżizzjoni mill-fjuwils fossili għal enerġija nadifa u rinnovabbli. Tran Van Dong, Deputat Ministru tax-Xjenza u t-Teknoloġija tal-Vjetnam, irrimarka li l-Vjetnam għandu potenzjal enormi għall-iżvilupp tal-enerġija rinnovabbli, b'madwar 217 GW ta 'enerġija mir-riħ fuq l-art, madwar 160 GW ta' enerġija mir-riħ offshore, u madwar 434 GW ta 'ġenerazzjoni ta' enerġija fotovoltajka .
Skont l-aħħar abbozz tal-pjan ġenerali tal-iżvilupp tal-enerġija, sal-2045, il-farms tar-riħ offshore fil-Vjetnam se jkunu jinsabu prinċipalment fit-tramuntana u fin-nofsinhar tal-pajjiż, b'kapaċità installata tiżdied b'36 gigawatt, li jammontaw għal 10.8 fil-mija tal-ġenerazzjoni tal-enerġija totali.
Matthews Holland, senior manager at the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC), said Vietnam's offshore wind power efficiency could exceed 50 percent, rivaling that of hydropower. According to GWEC estimates, Vietnam's initial investment for the first 4-5 GW offshore wind farms is up to US12 billion, but subsequent operating costs can be greatly reduced. The cost of generating electricity per 1,000 kWh of offshore wind in Vietnam is expected to be around US83, which will further drop to US58 by 2025.
Holland qal ukoll li l-Vjetnam għandu kosta twila ta '3,260 kilometru, kif ukoll livell baxx tal-baħar u veloċità għolja tar-riħ (7 sa 10 metri kull sekonda f'għoli ta' 100 metru), u l-kundizzjonijiet naturali għall-iżvilupp tal-enerġija mir-riħ offshore huma uniku.
However, the United Nations Development Programme reminded the Vietnamese side that the latter should also pay attention to how to use new energy more effectively. Currently, Vietnam's unit energy consumption (the amount of energy required to produce 1 unit of GDP) is 1.5 to 1.7 times that of other countries in the region. That is, if Vietnam wants to be carbon neutral, it needs to cut manufacturing emissions in half. Moreover, with the increase of power generation, how to transmit and distribute safely, efficiently and energy-savingly is also a priority for Vietnam to be solved urgently.
