Power Sector 20%RE in power generation in 2036 Supporting measure: Feed-in Tariff for VSPP and SPP Define RE Zoning, supply-demand matching principle Electricity trade by competitive bidding Improve transmission system to accommodate electricity from RE Promote RE electricity for Self-consumption Develop hybrid electricity system Support R&D in energy storage
Heating Sector Promote the use of other materials as fuel sources Develop supply chain management Define standard of renewable fuel for commercial Encourage more utilization of energy from waste and solar Study appropriate measure to promote the RE heat production
