Bidding for electricity projects instead of using the feed-in tariff price mechanism would make Viet Nam''s electricity more transparent and offer cheaper consumer power prices.
Power prices will increase by an average of 8.36 per cent at the end of this month, said deputy minister of Industry and Trade (MoIT) Hoang Quoc Vuong on Tuesday.
Despite a rise in the price of coal sold to power
plants late last month, the Ministry of Industry and Trade has not been
asked to permit an increase in power prices by Electricity of Viet Nam
(EVN).
