Global Electricity Review 2022 said fifty countries have now crossed the 10% wind and solar landmark, with seven new countries in 2021 alone: China, Japan, Mongolia, Viet Nam, Argentina, Hungary and El Salvador. Three countries—the Netherlands, Australia and Viet Nam—shifted over 8% of their total electricity demand from fossil fuels to wind and solar in just the last two years.

According to Ember, in 2021 Vietnam's solar power output increased by 337%, equivalent to 17 TWH, making Vietnam the 10th largest solar energy producer in the world and the only country in Asia where the increase in electricity from the sun will exceed the increase in electricity demand in 2021.

Vietnam's total solar and wind power generation capacity by the end of 2021 increased four times compared to 2019.
