The Government assigned the Ministry of Industry and Trade to study and review difficult cases and problems of renewable energy projects, propose to competent authorities to handle each type of problem, ensure that there is no negativity, group interests, or waste.
According to Tuoi Tre Online , in the report of the Ministry of Industry and Trade on the implementation of the Government's resolution on policies and directions to remove difficulties and obstacles for renewable energy projects, solutions were proposed for projects and project groups.
There are six groups of solutions to remove difficulties and obstacles for renewable energy projects. That is, allowing additional planning for implementation in case the project does not violate regulations related to national security and defense, planning of key national projects and works.
For projects with violations of procedures and processes related to land and construction works, they are allowed to be completed according to the provisions of law.
Specific handling directions, violating projects must be remedied
For projects that violate planning on minerals, irrigation, national defense, etc., an assessment of the socio-economic efficiency between planning and project implementation will be conducted. From there, overlapping planning will be adjusted accordingly or both renewable energy projects and related planning will be integrated and implemented simultaneously (dual-use planning).
For projects that are enjoying FIT prices but have violated the conclusion of competent authorities due to not fully meeting the conditions, they will not enjoy preferential FIT prices. The project will have its electricity purchase and sale price re-determined according to regulations; the preferential FIT prices that have been enjoyed incorrectly will be recovered through offset payments for electricity purchases.
For rooftop solar power projects built on agricultural and forestry land with large capacity under the farm investment model where the land is not suitable for farming, investors are required to comply with regulations.
Including full implementation of construction procedures, investment in aquaculture farms combined with implementation of renewable energy projects according to the provisions of law. Immediately fulfill financial obligations to the State according to regulations.
In case the competent authority determines that the land is used for farming, the preferential FIT price will not be enjoyed, but the electricity purchase price must be re-determined according to regulations. The preferential FIT prices that have been enjoyed incorrectly will be recovered through offset payments for electricity purchases. The project must also fully implement the registered farming activities.
In some cases such as projects enjoying FIT prices that violate regulations and rooftop solar power projects built on agricultural and forestry land, competent authorities shall issue regulations on electricity purchase and sale when competent authorities determine that the project's preferential FIT price is revoked as a basis for offsetting payment for electricity purchases.
