The buying price of solar land, floating solar power, rooftop solar electricity is 7.09 Cent / kWh, 7.69 Cent / kWh, 8.38 Cent / kWh respectively. Ninh Thuan province enjoys the preferential price of buying solar electricity at 9.35 Cent / kWh. These are formation stated in Decision No. 13/2020 / QD-TTg on mechanisms to encourage the development of solar power in Vietnam, issued by the Prime Minister on April 6.

Especially for Ninh Thuan province, the purchase price of electricity from grid-connected solar power projects has been in the development planning at all levels and has a commercial operation date before January 1, 2021, with the total cumulative capacity.
These purchase prices applied to projects with solar cell efficiency greater than 16% or modules greater than 15%; The purchase price of electricity from grid-connected solar power projects that do not meet the above conditions determined through the competition mechanism.
The cost of purchasing electricity from the above mentioned grid-connected solar power projects accounted for and fully included in the input parameters of the annual electricity wholesale and retail price plan of EVN.
