Renewable Energy News Week 3-Nov-25 to 9-Nov-25

Here is a concise roundup of renewable energy news this week (3-Nov to 9-Nov), with special focus on Vietnam.

International market

  • According to the World Economic Forum, the world is falling short of key renewables targets even as deployment grows — indicating that while capacity is increasing, it may not be keeping pace with ambition. (World Economic Forum)
  • In China, a major clean‑energy build‑out is reshaping both the domestic market and global supply chains. (The Economist)

Key take‑aways:

  • Deployment of renewables is still accelerating, but the gap to climate/transition goals remains.
  • Supply‑chain and manufacturing dominance (e.g., China) are affecting global market dynamics.
  • Investment and policy alignment remain crucial for scaling and sustainability.

Vietnam market

  • The Vietnam Energy Week 2025 (Nov 5‑7) has officially kicked off in HCM City, gathering hundreds of companies and showcasing technologies in renewables, storage and smart‑grid. (kinhtemoitruong.vn)
  • In the first 9 months of 2025, Vietnam’s electricity output surpassed 240 billion kWh, with renewables making up nearly 14% of the generation mix. (Nhà đầu tư)
  • A new analysis indicates that Vietnam’s offshore wind potential is now estimated at about 1 068 GW, much higher than earlier figures — highlighting “a green gold mine” for the country’s energy transition. (tin tức moitruong.net.vn)

Highlights for Vietnam:

  • The Energy Week event is significant — it shows policy, technology and investment stakeholders are actively aligning.
  • The generation statistics confirm: renewables are becoming a material component of Vietnam’s power mix.
  • The offshore wind potential figure underscores a major opportunity for development, especially for companies like ours in offshore structure design engineering.

✅ Summary & Implications for BWE

For our company (BWE) working in offshore structure design engineering, these developments point to:

  • Strong signal that Vietnam is accelerating its energy transition — opportunities in offshore wind, floating platforms, foundations, etc.
  • The international context reminds us that competition, supply‑chain readiness and cost control will be critical.
  • The technology & policy alignment at the Vietnam Energy Week suggests that projects will likely move from planning → execution, increasing demand for our engineering expertise.
