Authorities to have check-up on EVN’s power production costs The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) would check electricity production and business costs of Việt Nam Electricity (EVN) in 2018.

Power tariffs should have been increased more: MoIT Electricity retail prices should have been raised by 9.26 per cent instead of 8.36 per cent if Việt Nam Electricity (EVN) had correctly calculated the VNĐ3.26 trillion foreign exchange rate difference in 2018 into its power production costs.
