Vietnam Electricity (EVN) on Wednesday launched the EVNSOLAR platform at solar.evn.com.vn to assist potential investors, both households and enterprises, in accessing this type of power.

The platform provides solutions to meet the needs of potential investors and connects investors with contractors as well as banks and financial organisations.

After a project is completed, its investor will be given an account on the platform to assess the quality of products and services of contractors. 

The Government’s policies to encourage the development of renewable energy have fuelled the rapid development of projects in the field.

As of the start of September, nearly 50,000 rooftop solar power projects with a total capacity of close to 1,200 MWp had been completed and put into operation across the country.

With millions of private houses and buildings, there is tremendous potential for the development of rooftop solar energy in Viet Nam. — VNS
