National Assembly officially adopted Resolution No. 253/2025/QH15 last month to help attract further investment in the energy sector and achieve the country’s energy security targets. The resolution, which takes effect on March 1, introduces a series of new mechanisms and policies across key areas, such as adjustments to power master plans, tariff determination, investor selection, power purchase agreements (PPAs), offshore wind power development, and direct power purchase agreement (DPPA) implementation.
These reforms are expected to enhance investment efficiency, accelerate project implementation across the energy sector and address some concerns and proposals raised by energy investors in Vietnam during the 2026-2030 period.
AmCham members from all business sectors are invited to join AmCham’s Energy Committee’s 2026 kick-off meeting on January 22 to discuss Resolution 253 along with new programs and upcoming activities in Vietnam’s energy sector.
