Vietnam 
Solar Power
Vietnam is one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia, with a rapidly expanding population and energy demands. In response to this, the government has made significant efforts to develop renewable energy, particularly solar power. Solar power plants in the country generate a total of 4,543 MW of electricity, which accounts for 10% of the country's total energy production. These power plants are crucial in Vietnam's energy mix, as they reduce the country's dependence on fossil fuels, promote sustainable development, and contribute to the country's climate change commitments. Public perception towards solar power is positive, with many seeing it as a clean and affordable energy source.
