In the afternoon of Oct. 23, 2015, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai chaired the steering meeting to set up a mechanism to support the development of solar power projects to ensure prioritized objectives in new and renewable energy sources to meet the energy demands of the country.

The lower efficiencies mean that it takes years for homeowners and businesses to recoup the money they invest in solar power systems. If the efficiencies were higher, that time for return on investment would be slashed, people would be able to cover more of their power loads with renewable energy and solar power would be much more enticing to people and corporations.
