• [Vietnam increases household photovoltaic policy]
• Vietnam has issued the latest directive to strengthen local responsibilities and promote the implementation of household rooftop photovoltaics. Require all provinces and cities to introduce incentive plans by the end of December 2026, with the Ministry of Industry and Trade setting installation targets and local governments independently developing subsidy mechanisms. The policy is synchronized with the development of energy storage, and the proportion of surplus electricity connected to the grid has been increased to 50%. The current installed capacity of rooftop photovoltaics in Vietnam exceeds 11.45GW, and there is a lack of supporting documents in many places. The new policy aims to alleviate the electricity shortage and ensure power supply.Editor/Gong Ziwei
