Vietnam plans to significantly boost its power generation by 2030 through a revised national power plan, emphasizing renewable energy and the reintroduction of nuclear power. The initiative, requiring a $136.3 billion investment, represents over a quarter of Vietnam\u2019s 2024 GDP and aims to reduce dependence on coal, which currently dominates the energy sector.<\/p>\n
The government targets an increase in installed power capacity from over 80 gigawatts (GW) in 2023 to between 183GW and 236GW by 2030. A key component is the revival of nuclear power, with initial plants expected to generate up to 6.4GW between 2030 and 2035. By mid-century, an additional 8GW is planned. The nuclear program, paused in 2016 due to safety concerns and financial limitations, is now being re-evaluated, with interest in small modular reactors noted for their potential cost efficiency.<\/p>\n
Vietnam is collaborating with international partners, including Russia, Japan, South Korea, France, and the United States, for nuclear projects.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The power plan also prioritizes renewable energy growth. Solar power is projected to account for 25.3% to 31.1% of capacity by 2030, up from 23.8% in 2020. Wind energy is expected to contribute 14.2% to 16.1%, a significant rise from near-zero levels. Offshore wind projects, targeting 6GW to 17GW by 2035, are planned, though no such facilities are currently operational.<\/p>\n To balance the energy mix, coal-fired plants will be reduced to 13.1% to 16.9% of capacity, while liquefied natural gas plants will comprise 9.5% to 12.3%. The government stated: \u201cThis plan ensures sustainable energy development while meeting growing demand and environmental goals.\u201d The strategy reflects Vietnam\u2019s commitment to diversifying its energy sources and enhancing capacity to support economic growth.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Vietnam plans to significantly boost its power generation by 2030 through a revised national power plan, emphasizing renewable energy and the reintroduction of nuclear power.
