The programme was originally issued under Resolution No. 328/NQ-CP on October 13, 2025, to implement the Politburo's Resolution No. 70-NQ/TW, dated August 20, 2025, on ensuring national energy security through 2030, with a vision to 2045.

Under the new resolution, the Ministry of Industry and Trade and local authorities are required to strengthen inspections and supervision of energy security policies and regulations. They must also ensure that energy plans and development projects meet quality standards and stay on schedule.

The resolution assigns the Ministry of Industry and Trade to work with relevant ministries, agencies and localities to draft a Prime Ministerial decision on support for households installing rooftop solar power systems for their own use. The proposed support will also cover electricity storage systems, with policies tailored to different periods.

In 2026, the ministry will continue to improve and effectively implement legislation on geology and minerals.

The resolution also calls for stronger measures to ensure adequate energy supplies and infrastructure, in line with the country's economic growth needs.

The Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and provincial and municipal authorities are tasked with developing strict penalties for investors who register energy projects but delay or fail to carry them out. The measures aim to prevent such delays from undermining national energy security during the 2026–2030 period.
