Prime Minister Lê Minh Hưng encouraged Polish businesses to expand investment in renewable energy, railways, shipbuilding and other sectors in Vietnam, at a business roundtable held in Hanoi on October 26, shortly after the two countries upgraded relations to Strategic Partnership. Poland is Vietnam's largest trade partner in Central and Eastern Europe and the 36th largest foreign investor in Vietnam. Bilateral trade reached nearly $4 billion last year, up nearly 15% from 2024, and nearly $3.5 billion in the first nine months of this year, up 19%. The two sides aim to raise trade to $6 billion by 2030, and LOT Polish Airlines will resume direct Warsaw-Hanoi flights from March 31, 2027.

- Vietnam leads Southeast Asia in renewable energy investment inflows
According to BloombergNEF, renewable energy investment in Vietnam reached about $4.2 billion in the first half of 2026, up fourfold year on year, returning Vietnam to the top of Southeast Asia for the first time in five years. The growth comes as the revised Power Development Plan VIII targets strong expansion of wind and solar, driving demand for capital and long-term power purchase agreements. Since June 1, Samsung Electronics Vietnam Thai Nguyen has bought renewable power via the national grid under the direct power purchase mechanism (DPPA), sourced from the 49 MWp Đức Huệ 2 solar plant. The plan also estimates about $136.3 billion in investment for generation and transmission grids over 2026-2030, including $118.2 billion for power sources and $18.1 billion for transmission. BloombergNEF suggests greater transparency in grid fees and DPPA payments and a broader ability to aggregate corporate demand across multiple sites.
- Awaiting Removal of the 'Bottleneck' in Rooftop Solar Power Sales
Vietnam has more than 134,000 rooftop solar systems, but selling electricity still faces hurdles in licensing and transaction procedures. Bitexco said rooftop solar under 1 MW selling directly through private lines is exempt from a power generation licence but not from distribution and retail licences, and proposed synchronized licence exemptions for these stages if capacity thresholds set by the Government are met, while stressing that exemption does not mean exemption from technical, safety and liability obligations. Nguyen Xuan Quy, vice chairman of the Vietnam Clean Energy Association, said Decree 243/2026/NĐ-CP raised the share of surplus rooftop solar that can be sold to the grid from 20% to up to 50%, but unstandardized procedures and anti-reverse-flow devices installed on many systems mean part of the surplus goes unused. According to EVN, by the end of August the country had 134,410 systems with total installed capacity of over 11,450 MWp. The Ministry of Industry and Trade said it had accepted adding a provision assigning the Government to determine cases exempt from electricity activity licences.
- Petronas wants to bring Vietnamese offshore wind power to Malaysia and Singapore
Malaysia's national oil company Petronas wants to help develop a project that would carry Vietnam's offshore wind power through Malaysia to Singapore under the VMS (Vietnam-Malaysia-Singapore) project. Petronas Vietnam representative Aimy Zairin Mohamed said the project aims to link Vietnam's clean power with regional markets and could become a pioneering model for the ASEAN Power Grid. Vietnam's wind resource could exceed 400 GW, and the planned route would send power by undersea cable to Malaysia, connect it to the local grid, then onward to Singapore. The four partners are Petronas (coordinator), Tenaga Nasional Berhad, PVS and Sembcorp Utilities of Singapore. Petronas, present in Vietnam for 35 years, will also work with PetroVietnam on domestic oil and gas, LNG imports and renewables, aiming to balance energy security, affordability and sustainability.
- Prime Minister: Power Development Must Still Keep Prices 'Reasonable for the People'
On the afternoon of 20/10, the National Assembly discussed in group sessions a draft amendment to the Electricity Law, where Prime Minister Lê Minh Hưng said large investment is needed for power development but electricity prices must stay 'reasonable for the people'. With hydropower at its limit and thermal power restricted by net-zero emissions commitments, the strategy focuses on domestic gas, LNG, solar and wind, though the PM warned that expensive LNG would push electricity prices up. The amendment also aims to simplify investment procedures, as one company spent 10 years on paperwork for an offshore wind project. Power Plan VIII for 2025-2035 has been adjusted to include about 21 LNG projects with 36,000 MW, while total installed capacity reached about 87,600 MW by end-2025. The target is 183,000-236,000 MW by 2030, and the government has directed a review and update of Power Plan VIII to ensure projects are feasible.
- Vietnam wants Danish corporations to expand investment in energy and logistics
On October 20, during a state visit to Denmark, General Secretary and President To Lam met leaders of major Danish companies in Copenhagen, including A.P. Moller - Maersk, LEGO Group, Carlsberg, Pandora, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Vestas. He urged them to expand investment in clean energy, ports and logistics, and praised their contributions of capital, technology, governance and green development models. He also called for deeper cooperation in wind and solar power, energy storage, the broader energy industry ecosystem, R&D and higher value-added manufacturing. Vietnam pledged to refine its legal frameworks on investment, land and energy, cut unnecessary procedures, and assign clear responsibility for resolving business concerns.
- Residential electricity prices may be set by peak and off-peak hours
Vietnam's Minister of Industry and Trade, Lê Mạnh Hùng, submitted to the National Assembly on the afternoon of October 20 a draft amendment to the Electricity Law. It would allow retail electricity to be priced by peak, off-peak and normal hours where technical conditions allow, with a roadmap for applying this to residential customers. The draft also sets out a plan to eliminate cross-subsidies between customer groups and proposes incentive pricing for renewable energy, new energy and storage systems. Nguyễn Thanh Hải, chair of the National Assembly's Committee for Science, Technology and Environment, asked that the scope and roadmap for removing cross-subsidies and electricity bill support be clarified, kept separate from direct aid to poor households, and that investment risks not be shifted to the State or the public. The committee also warned that the wording requiring full recovery of costs and reasonable profit could be read as the State guaranteeing investors' financial results.

- Anthropic Makes IPO Filing Public, Plans Nasdaq Listing Under ‘ANT’
Anthropic has filed for an IPO, planning to list its Class A shares on Nasdaq under the ticker “ANT”, with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley leading 24 underwriters. For the first half of 2026, revenue reached 16.29 billion USD (versus 1.16 billion USD a year earlier), but the company posted a net loss of 80.7 billion USD, mainly due to a 72.4 billion USD charge tied to fair value changes in convertible notes and other instruments. A trust will elect a majority of the board, while an entity owned by its seven co-founders will hold 50.1% of voting power; the filing warns this structure may effectively eliminate Class A holders’ ability to influence key decisions. The company previously raised 65 billion USD in May at a 965 billion USD valuation, and the number of shares and price range have not yet been set.
