The Politburo issued a Resolution on ensuring national energy security.

The Resolution stated that after 5 years of implementing Resolution No. 55-NQ/TW, dated February 11, 2020 of the Politburo on the strategic orientation of Vietnam's national energy development to 2030, with a vision to 2045, the energy sector has maintained stable growth, basically ensuring national energy security, meeting the increasingly high requirements for rapid and sustainable development, ensuring national defense and security and improving people's lives. However, the energy sector still has many limitations and weaknesses.

To meet the requirements of rapid and sustainable national development in the coming time, especially to implement the two strategic goals by 2030 and 2045, ensuring energy security plays a very important role. Energy must go one step ahead, fully meeting the needs of socio -economic development, national defense, security and improving people's lives.

Dak Lak province has potential and advantages for wind power development, meeting the needs of socio-economic development.

Accordingly, the Politburo requires the Party to provide comprehensive leadership; the State to create institutions, breakthrough policies and control strategic energy infrastructure; people and businesses are the center and the subjects of national energy development, in which the state economy plays a leading role, the private sector is one of the most important driving forces. The national energy development plan must be led, directed and implemented in a centralized, unified, synchronous, serious and effective manner.

Energy development must be consistent with the socialist-oriented market economic institution, associated with social progress and equity, social security, national defense and security, environmental protection, and flexibility in implementing international commitments on greenhouse gas emission reduction.

Building a synchronous, competitive, transparent energy market, diversifying ownership forms and business methods; applying market prices to all types of energy, without cross-subsidization between customer groups. Encouraging and facilitating economic sectors, especially the private sector, to participate in energy development; ensuring that the private sector competes equally with other economic sectors in developing energy projects.

Develop synchronously, reasonably and diversify energy types; prioritize the exploitation, thorough and effective use of renewable energy sources, new energy, clean energy; exploit and reasonably use domestic fossil energy sources, focus on stabilizing, regulating and ensuring national energy reserves; develop nuclear power and gas power; have a roadmap to reduce the proportion of coal-fired power in a reasonable manner. Optimize the structure of the national energy system, ensure synchronization, efficiency, promote the comparative advantages of each region and locality.

Applying science, technology, innovation and digital transformation to promote rapid and sustainable development of the energy sector; gradually mastering modern technology and nuclear energy technology, moving towards self-sufficiency in producing most energy equipment to serve domestic needs and export both technology and equipment.

According to the Resolution, by 2030, Vietnam aims to ensure solid national energy security, with an adequate, stable and high-quality supply. Specifically: the total primary energy supply is expected to reach 150-170 million tons of oil equivalent; the total capacity of power sources is about 183-236 GW, with a total electricity output of 560-624 billion KWh; the proportion of renewable energy in the total primary energy supply will reach about 25-30%; greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced by 15-35% compared to the business-as-usual scenario; the power system will become smart and efficient, with power supply reliability and electricity access index in the top 3 of ASEAN; oil refineries will meet at least 70% of domestic gasoline demand.

By 2045, Vietnam aims to build a synchronous and sustainable energy sector with a healthy and efficient competitive market. The energy infrastructure will be modern, smart, and effectively connected to the region and the world. In particular, the level of science and technology and management capacity of the energy sector will reach the level of modern industrialized countries.

In the Resolution, the Politburo also proposed key solutions to achieve the above goals, such as: perfecting institutions and policies; developing diverse energy sources; promoting technology application; strengthening strategic reserves; saving energy and protecting the environment.
