With 88 solar and wind power plants, officially connected to the national grid on June, the renewable energy industry in Vietnam is already flourished very well. So in this renewable energy race, who is leading?

Bamboo Capital Group

Since 2017, Bamboo Capital Group (BCG) has considered solar energy as its strategic investment. In the 2018 AGM, Mr. Nguyen Ho Nam – Chairman of BCG stated: “Now, renewable energy is the cheapest energy on the planet. Renewable energy sector not only has high economic efficiency but also sustainable and safe  “.

The first solar power plant was started construction in Long An on September 16, 2018 by BCG, which is the BCG Bang Duong solar power plant of BCG Bang Duong Energy Joint Stock Company (affiliations of BCG)
