✨ AI Insight

Vietnam's solar share sat at 0.01% every year from 2010 to 2018 - effectively nothing - then jumped to 2.03% in 2019, 4.41% in 2020 and 10.31% in 2021. That is one of the fastest solar build-outs any country has recorded. What happened next is just as interesting: the share has fallen every year since, to 7.44% in 2025, even though solar output itself has not collapsed. Electricity demand grew faster than new solar was added, so the percentage slipped while the absolute figure held up.
