On 22 October 2024, Vietnamese Government enacted Decree No. 135/2024/ND-CP (Decree 135) on, with the intention of encouraging the growth of rooftop solar (RTS) power that is produced and consumed by an organization/individual for their own needs. As soon as it is issued, the Decree becomes effective. This action is aligned with Vietnam’s commitment in COP26 and PDP8, where self-consumed RTS is aimed to increase by 2600 MW in 2030.
This legal update analyses new opportunities for RTS power developers under Decree 135 through their services as contractors for power consumers, besides their role as power sellers in power generation and sale under the DPPA mechanism.
