The electricity industry has set a target of generating nearly 83.3 billion kWh in 2009, an increase of 12,5 percent from the previous year.
Of the total, 57.44 billion kWh will be produced by the Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) and 25.8 billion kWh will be purchased from the Vietnam National Oil and Gas Group and the Vietnam National Coal and Mineral Industries Group.
Electricity sales are expected to rise by 13.6 percent to 74.9 billion kWh in 2009.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade has asked EVN to hasten construction of a number of thermo-electric and hydro-electric power plants, such as Cam Pha, Hai Phong, O Mon, Quang Ninh, Cua Dat, Song Con, Se San 4 and An Khe-Kanak.
The ministry also requested EVN take measures to reduce electricity loss and boost electricity saving in daily use and production.
In 2008, Vietnam’s electricity output increased by 10.8 percent and its sales went up 12.8 percent from the previous year.
