Rooftop solar and other renewable power can now be sold directly through private transmission lines without going through Vietnam Electricity as an intermediary.
Wind, biomass, micro-hydropower, geothermal, wave, and tidal energy plants are also included in the government’s decree on direct power purchase agreement (DPPA) for renewable energy.
There are no capacity limits on direct sales, but producers must have a license to supply electricity or express waiver from this requirement.
They also have the option to sell to the national grid, either through the spot electricity market or EVN.
Solar and wind energy generators must have a capacity of at least 10MW to sign a supply deal.
