FAQs 6

Are Vietnam's major coal-thermal power plants a viable transition pathway?

The study explored viable transition pathways for Vietnam’s major coal-thermal power plants—namely Pha Lai, Cao Ngan, and Van Phong—assessing the potential impacts, costs, and benefits of various energy conversion options.

Who owns a coal power plant in Vietnam?

Most coal power plants are owned by State-owned Enterprises (SOEs), including Vietnam Electricity (EVN), PetroVietnam (PVN), and Vietnam National Coal-Mineral Industries Holding Corporation Limited (TKV). Coal power plants under EVN’s Power Generation Corporation (EVNGENCOs) are managed by power companies.

Is coal a viable source of energy in Vietnam?

Vietnam’s coal power industry remains a dominant source of energy, accounting for nearly half of the country’s electricity generation. The rapid economic growth and industrialisation over the past two decades have led to a significant increase in energy demand, making coal a reliable and affordable option to meet these needs.

How does coal fit into Vietnam's economy?
