Localities seriously learn from experience

In conclusion, Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh emphasized that in the context of the complicated and unpredictable developments in the international and regional economic situation, we must face many difficulties and challenges and resolutely achieve the growth target of at least 8% in 2025 and double digits in the following years. Therefore, promoting public investment disbursement and removing difficulties for projects is a task of special importance.

Welcoming the localities that, following the direction, have urgently focused on removing difficulties and obstacles for renewable energy projects so that the projects can continue to be implemented and put into operation, Mr. Binh said that there are still localities that have not actively removed difficulties and have not fulfilled their responsibilities, and there is still a situation of "kicking the ball up and down", these localities need to seriously learn from their experiences.

Accordingly, he requested that the parties continue to review the difficulties and obstacles for energy projects to remove them for businesses. Especially the contents related to the order of construction and licensing procedures; issues related to planning; conversion of land use purposes; preferential prices (FIT);...

All these problems need to be focused on and implemented in May 2025 with the spirit that the difficulties and problems of any level, ministry, sector, or locality must be considered, handled, and resolved by the units.
