ENERGY CHINA EYES EXPANSION IN VIETNAM WITH INCREASED INVESTMENT IN RENEWABLE PROJECTS
Energy China, a Fortune 500 energy conglomerate, has unveiled plans to expand its investments in Vietnam.
According to local newspaper Nhandan, the announcement came during Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh's recent visit to Guangxi, China, where he met with vice president of Energy China Zhang Manping on September 16.
The discussions centred on ramping up the company's footprint in Vietnam, particularly in terms of wind power projects spread across provinces such as Ha Tinh, Ninh Thuan, and Quang Tri.
This engagement coincided with PM Chinh's attendance at the 20th China-ASEAN Expo and Business and Investment Summit held in Nanning. It gave the Vietnamese leader an opportunity to emphasise the nation's focus on green and digital transition.
He stated, "Our partnerships with investors, especially in the green sector, mirror Vietnam's broader development goals."
Renowned as a multifaceted conglomerate, Energy China has cemented its place in the prestigious Fortune 500 list, demonstrating unparalleled expertise in delivering intricate technical solutions across the energy and infrastructure domains.
With an expansive footprint boasting 256 branches across 147 countries and territories, the group oversees 416 ventures and employs over 100,000 personnel.
During his presentation, Manping shed light on Energy China's corporate landscape, articulating its vision for prospective projects in Vietnam.
He stated, "Our expansion plans underscore our commitment to renewable energy, spotlighted by our initiatives in wind power across Ha Tinh, Ninh Thuan, Quang Tri, and other provinces."
PM Chinh lauded Energy China's forthcoming investment strategies, urging the conglomerate to explore digital and sustainable projects. He emphasised adherence to the rule of law, ethical business practices, healthy competition, and the prioritisation of socio-cultural values.
"The success of our investors aligns with Vietnam's aspirations, fostering a spirit of harmonious benefit and shared risks," noted the PM.
Addressing Energy China's partnership proposals, PM Chinh has entrusted the Ministry of Industry and Trade to collaborate with the group's representatives. The ministry will take the lead, liaising with relevant departments and regional bodies to ensure the smooth progress of Energy China's exploration into new ventures and investment opportunities in Vietnam.

VIỆT NAM STEPS UP EXPORT TO ACHIEVE US$550-BILLION TARGET
Việt Nam is intensifying efforts to sustain export momentum in the second half of 2026 as the country works towards its target of US$550 billion in export revenue for the year, despite continuing uncertainties in global trade. Statistics show that exports reached $266.5 billion in the first six months, meaning the economy needs to generate around $245.5 billion more during the remainder of the year to meet the annual goal.
ASIA POWERS VIETNAM’S SHRIMP BOOM, LEAVING THE WEST BEHIND
In the first half of 2026, Vietnam's shrimp exports surpassed the US$2.3 billion mark, driven largely by booming demand from China and a lobster craze. But behind that growth figure lies a lopsided picture: Asia is carrying the load, while the U.S. and Europe have yet to break out. These days, a container of frozen shrimp leaving a Ho Chi Minh City port is more likely to cross the East Vietnam Sea to Shanghai than the Pacific to Los Angeles.
