Develop endless power on every roof

The Prime Minister asked to comply with the principle of centralization for places with potential and advantages, with good development conditions; Priority is given to encourage the rational development of solar power on the roof ... The Government's Office has just announced the Prime Minister's conclusion at the Government's Standing Committee meeting on the draft of solar power development incentive mechanism applied from July 1, 2019. The Prime Minister asked the Ministry of Industry and Trade to draw profound experience on the shortcomings and limitations in developing solar power recently.

Solar electricity has grown very quickly over time.

That is the scale of additional solar power planning is much larger than expected in the adjusted 7 electricity plan, while the content of calculating and updating the power source structure of the national electricity system has not been Ministry of Industry and Trade fully timely. The implementation of national solar power development planning has been slow, drastic, and has not yet met the general operating requirements for solar power development. Another weakness is that the Ministry of Industry and Trade's management of solar power development planning lacks science and practice, and the forecasting is still weak. There are no effective and timely control measures to avoid the wave of massive investment, following the movement into developing solar power, especially overinvestment in some areas causing many difficulties in transmission. electricity, reducing the capacity of plants, affecting the operation of the national electricity system and affecting the interests of investors. In addition, the investment management is not transparent and has not been closely and synchronized management. The Government continues to pay attention to the rational development of renewable energy sources, especially solar PV, which has a great potential in our country. However, the Prime Minister requested to calculate the structure of power sources in a scientific and methodical manner, must switch completely to the implementation of the bidding mechanism, resolutely eliminate the application, focus on handling projects. The project has been completed and is about to be completed but could not be put into operation before July 1, 2019. Regarding the development of solar power in the coming time, the Prime Minister asks to comply with the principle of centralization for places with potential and advantages, with good development conditions; Priority is given to encourage the rational development of solar power on the roof ... Remarkably, the Prime Minister required the development of solar power to comply with the planning and ensure the balance of the electricity system, avoiding massive development, causing a great impact on the production cost of the entire system, ensuring harmony. State benefits - investors - people. "Absolutely fighting against the interests of groups in development management, resolutely eliminating the application mechanism; investment projects must not use outdated technology, low efficiency, low risk. about environment ", the Prime Minister stated. No retroactive provisions on electricity prices for solar power projects that have been applied the FIT price table under Decision 11; create conditions for rational development and ensure the legitimate interests of investors The Prime Minister requested to agree on the issuance of a fixed incentive tariff (FIT) that is generally applied to rooftop solar PV throughout the country and within a certain time; consider issuing the FIT tariff to apply to projects that have signed Power Purchase Agreement and are commencing construction and commissioning in 2020. For the remaining projects and new projects, the FIT tariff will not be applied, but will be switched to open, transparent and competitive bidding to reduce the price of electricity purchased from power projects. Sun. "The Ministry of Industry and Trade coordinates with relevant agencies to review and report specifically the list of solar power projects applying the new FIT tariff; to be responsible to the Prime Minister for the accuracy of the list of projects This ensures fairness, publicity and transparency, "the note notes. The price of solar power applied to the project in NInh Thuan complies with the Government's resolution in Resolution 115, until Ninh Thuan reaches the capacity of 2000MW or until the end of 2020, depending on which criteria come before. The Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Industry and Trade and Ninh Thuan to strictly implement it. Based on the above orientations and principles, the Ministry of Industry and Trade shall assume the prime responsibility for, and coordinate with the Ministry of Finance and the Vietnam Electricity Corporation in, urgently implementing and reporting to the Prime Minister before December 15, 2019. Finally, the Prime Minister asked relevant ministries and agencies to uphold the sense of responsibility not to avoid pushing responsibility, especially for projects currently facing many difficulties and obstacles to accelerate the progress. declare projects, absolutely do not let power shortage happen in the near future; strictly implementing the law strictly, fighting against negative corruption, fighting against the interests of the group, making everything public and transparent.
