Installed solar power capacity exceeds plan: government inspectors
The capacity of solar power projects in Vietnam has exceeded a government-approved plan by 10-fold, inspectors have found.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade has by itself approved 114 projects and asked the Prime Minister’s Office to greenlight another 54 projects to be added to the Power Development Plan VIII (PDP).
But of these 168 projects, none has any legal ground to be added to the plan, the Government Inspectorate said in a report Monday after investigating the industry ministry in its management of solar power plants.
