However, Mr. Vuong directed the Electricity and Renewable Energy Department to draft Decision No. 13 in the direction of expanding the scope of subjects entitled to preferential electricity prices, contrary to the Resolution and direction of the Prime Minister. For the motive of profit, in order to create a mechanism for the Trung Nam - Thuan Nam Solar Power Plant Project to enjoy preferential electricity prices, Mr. Vuong took advantage of his position as Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade to agree on the proposal for the above Project to be approved for additional planning, and at the same time intentionally requested a preferential price mechanism beyond the permitted scope. In addition, Mr. Vuong was also accused of intentionally adjusting the wording, changing the scope of subjects entitled to preferential electricity prices, and including it in the draft Decision No. 13 to help the Trung Nam - Thuan Nam Project to be eligible for incentives. When carrying out the above acts, Mr. Vuong confessed to receiving 1.5 billion VND from Trung Nam Construction Investment Joint Stock Company. The family of the former Deputy Minister has returned this amount to the investigation agency. According to the conclusion, Mr. Vuong's abuse of his assigned duties and responsibilities, violating his official duties, caused Vietnam Electricity Group to pay preferential electricity prices for the Nhon Hai Solar Farm Project and the Trung Nam - Thuan Nam Project, causing a loss of more than VND937 billion.
