Browse the tabs below for a detailed table of contents, the list of graphs and tables, and details on the data files.

Highlights

  • The country aims to reach a capacity of ~40 GW of wind and solar in 2030.
  • RES auctions and PPA contracts are replacing FiTs.
  • The hydrocarbon sector is dominated by State-owned companies: PVN for hydrocarbons and EVN for electricity.
  • Oil and gas production has been decreasing rapidly since 2015 with the decline in existing fields.
  • Wind capacities increased 8-fold in 2021 to 4 GW.
  • The share of coal in the power mix has increased by 27 points since 2010, reaching 48% in 2021.
  • The prices of gasoline and diesel have increased sharply since 2021.
  • Oil prices are lower than in neighbouring countries.
  • Energy consumption decreased by 5% in 2021, after a rapid progression between 2010 and 2019 (~5%/year).
  • The energy mix is increasingly dependent on coal (52% in 2021, +27 pp since 2010).
  • The country reviewed its power mix forecasts for 2030 by reducing the share of coal to 24.5% in favour of renewables and gas.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) supervises the energy sector. Within the MOIT, the General Directorate of Energy (GDE) administers the energy sector through three Departments: Electricity and Renewable Energy, Petroleum and Coal, and Energy Saving and Sustainable Development.

  • Energy Companies

    Electricity:

    EVN (Vietnam Electricity), a public holding under the supervision of the MOIT, is the country's national electricity company.

  • Energy Supply

    Resources:

    Vietnam has significant energy reserves: 100 TWh of economically exploitable hydro resources, more than 3 100 Mt of proved recoverable coal reserves, almost 185 bcm of proven natural gas reserves (2021), and around 585 Mt of crude oil reserves (2021). The oil reserves are the third largest in Asia, behind China and close to those for India.

  • Energy Prices

    Gas:

    The gas price for power generation is regulated by the Government; this price has been rising since 2014.

  • Energy Consumption

    Energy consumption per capita is low, at 0.9 toe and 2 300 kWh for electricity in 2021 (vs 1.5 toe and 2 923 kWh on average in Asia).

    Total energy consumption increased rapidly until 2019 (5%/year over 2010-2019), slowed down in 2020, and decreased by 5% in 2021 to 92.5 Mtoe.

  • Issues & Prospects

    According to "National Energy Development Strategy to 2030 and outlook to 2045" (Resolution 55, 2020), total primary energy supply is expected to reach 175-195 Mtoe by 2030 and 320-350 Mtoe by 2045.

The Vietnam energy market data since 1990 and up to is included in the Excel file accompanying the Vietnam country report.
It showcases the historical evolution, allowing users to easily work with the data.

Key Data included in the excelsheet:

  • Economic indicators: Annual historical economic indicators, energy security, energy efficiency and CO2 emissions.
  • Supply indicators: Annual historical reserves, capacity, production and external trade (imports(+) exports(-) balance).
  • Demand indicators: Annual historical consumption per capita, consumption trends, total consumption, final consumption (per energy and per sector) and electricity consumption total and per sector.
  • Energy Balance: total and per energy.
  • Vietnam Energy Prices: In addition to the analysis provided on the report we also provided a data set which includes historical details on the Vietnam energy prices for the follow items: price of premium gasoline (taxes incl.), price of diesel (taxes incl.), price of electricity in industry (taxes incl.), price of electricity for households (taxes incl.), price of natural gas in industry (taxes incl.), prices of natural gas for households (taxes incl.), spot price of Brent and CO2 emissions (from fuel combustion).

The Vietnam country dashboards are complemented with country forecasts from EnerFuture (excel file) with scenario comparison.

Data included in the excelsheet:

  • Demand: Primary energy consumption, final energy consumption, by fuel, by sector.
