ECA has been appointed to advise the Electricity Regulatory Authority of Vietnam on the introduction of the country’s competitive wholesale electricity market, which will start in pilot form in late-2015. The electricity market builds on the existing competitive generation market, for which ECA was instrumental in assisting ERAV in the design. ECA tasks will include overseeing and coordinating the work of the various consultancies designing aspects of the wholesale market and in supporting ERAV in determining its strategy for accompanying sector reforms.
