The thesis is carried out based on the theoretical basis of environmental science, economic theory, state theory and law in view of Marxism - Lenin - The thesis is based on the principle of "Sustainable development", "Polluters pay", "Stimulating economic benefits" - The thesis is also implemented on the basis of the views and policies of the Communist Party of Vietnam on the development of clean energy - The author also selectively acquires some views and experiences of countries on developing clean energy 1.2.2 Research hypotheses First, clean energy has many advantages, the development of clean energy brings many economic and environmental benefits Second, the development of clean energy is subject to competition with the traditional energy industry Therefore, in order to develop clean energy, the state needs to have interventions Third, the content of the clean energy development law is approached in many different angles, each approach has its own advantages and disadvantages Fourth, the improvement of the law on clean energy development must follow the orientation of clean energy development of the Communist Party of Vietnam, the basic principles, in line with the requirements of international integration and ensure the unified in the legal system 1.2.3 Research questions First, what is clean energy? What are the characteristics and properties of clean energy? How these characteristics and properties affect the content of clean energy development legislation? How does science and technology affect clean energy development and clean energy development law? Second, how does the state intervene to ensure clean energy development? The reason is that this field is difficult to attract investors and cannot be developed due to difficulties compared to the exploitation and production of traditional fossil energy if the market is to regulate itself according to the law of supply and demand Third, what is clean energy development law? Which approach is the most appropriate approach to the definition of clean energy development law? What are the principles of clean energy development law developed, completed and enforced? Fourth, what is the status of clean energy development law in Vietnam? Are the regulations complete, strong enough to stimulate the exploitation, production and use of clean energy? How are the remaining difficulties expressed? Fifth, orientation and solutions to improve clean energy development law and improve enforcement efficiency? CONCLUSION OF CHAPTER 1 In recent years, the issue of clean energy development, clean energy development law has attracted the attention of domestic and international researchers The works related to the thesis have used research methods: the method of dialectical materialism and historical materialism of Marxism - Lenin; methods of analysis, comparison, synthesis, field survey, logical reasoning, evaluation, comment, Fellows also inherit these methods The works related to the thesis of the previous authors have solved some theoretical and practical issues as follows: - Giving own views on clean energy and related definitions (renewable energy, green energy) - Evaluating the clean energy potential of Vietnam - Analyzing some basic theoretical issues and the situation of clean energy development objectives - Evaluating some difficulties in the current status of the law on preferential and support measures in order to develop science and technology to exploit, produce and use clean energy - Analyzing the content of a number of regulations on preferential measures, supporting the exploitation, production and use of clean energy - Analysis of financial support for fossil fuels is the reason why electricity prices in Vietnam are artificially cheap - Initially analyzing the position and functions of some state management agencies on clean energy development There has not been any work to systematically and comprehensively study the theoretical issues and the situation of clean energy development law in Vietnam This is the reason why the researcher selects the topic: "Clean energy development law in Vietnam" as her doctoral thesis Chapter 2: THEORETICAL ISSUES OF CLEAN ENERGY, CLEAN ENERGY DEVELOPMENT AND CLEAN ENERGY DEVELOPMENT LAW 2.1 Theoretical issues of clean energy and clean energy development 2.1.1 Theoretical issues about clean energy 2.1.1.1 Clean energy concept The PhD student gives the definition: "Clean energy is a renewable energy source and production, using them environmentally friendly and cost-effective." 2.1.1.2 Features of clean energy Clean energy must be renewable; The exploitation, production and use of clean energy have little or no environmental pollution; The production and use of clean energy saves costs; Clean energy is widely used in many fields 2.1.1.3 The main clean energy sources Clean energy is exploited from water, wind, sunlight, geothermal, ocean waves, biofuels, biomass 2.1.2 Theoretical issues about clean energy development 2.1.2.1 Definition of clean energy development Clean energy development is the process by which entities carry out various activities to exploit, produce and use clean energy or 11 Secondly, planning clean energy development Basic contents of clean energy development law planning include: Step 1: Planning clean energy development; Step 2: Appraisal of clean energy development planning; Step 3: Approve clean energy development planning 2.2.3.2 Legislation on incentives and support for scientific and technological development to exploit, produce and use clean energy Science and technology play a very important role in clean energy development Therefore, it is necessary to develop and improve the legal regulations on preferential measures, support the development of science and technology to exploit, produce and use clean energy 2.2.3.3 Legislation on incentives and support for exploitation, production and use of clean energy Preferential and supportive measures for developing clean energy mainly include: loan incentives; tax preferences; incentives for land infrastructure 2.2.3.4 Law on measures to limit exploitation, production and use of energy sources that have a negative impact on the environment In addition to supporting clean energy development, there should be measures to limit exploitation, production and use of energy sources that have a negative impact on the environment 2.2.3.5 Law on state management agencies in developing clean energy The establishment and granting of management authority to any agency must ensure that no barrier to clean energy development is created An agency cannot manage all the contents related to the clean energy development but requires the coordination of many 12 different agencies However, the law should clearly stipulate which agencies are responsible for the main, which agencies are responsible for coordination 2.2.4 The role of clean energy development law The role of clean energy development law manifests itself in the following key aspects: Legislation is a common code of conduct that everyone in society must perform when implementing mining activities, producing and using clean energy; The law prescribes preferential measures and supports the development of clean energy; The law stipulates sanctions in the development of clean energy; The law stipulates technical regulations in the clean energy development; The law stipulates measures and ways to resolve disputes in clean energy development; The law guarantees to implement other measures in clean energy development 2.2.5 Factors affecting clean energy development law 2.2.5.1 Natural condition 2.2.5.2 Political factors 2.2.5.3 Economical factors 2.2.5.4 Science and technology elements 2.2.5.5 International cooperation 2.2.5.6 Other factors CONCLUSION OF CHAPTER The author of the thesis presents the following views on clean energy: Clean energy is a renewable energy source and production, using them environmentally friendly and cost saving Clean energy development is understood as the process of entities carrying out various activities to exploit, produce and use 13 clean energy or stimulate the exploitation, production and use of clean energy fruit brings benefits to the whole society Clean energy development law is a combination of legal regulations issued by competent state agencies to regulate social relations arising in the process of entities carrying out various activities to exploiting, producing and using clean energy or stimulating the efficient exploitation, production and use of clean energy benefits the whole society Clean energy development law is developed, completed and enforced based on the following basic principles: The principle of polluters must pay; The principle of beneficiaries must pay; Principles of sustainable development; Principle of stimulating economic benefits; Principles of fairness; Principles of using centralized financial resources The content of clean energy development law is approached in many different angles In the thesis, the PhD student approaches under the view of the process of building and enforcing clean energy development law Clean energy development law is affected by natural conditions, political factors, economic factors, scientific and technological factors, international cooperation, awareness of population communities and human resources force Chapter 3: CURRENT SITUATION OF CLEAN ENERGY DEVELOPMENT LAW IN VIETNAM 3.1 Legal provisions on objectives and planning for clean energy development 3.1.1 Legal regulations on clean energy development goals 14 The target of clean energy development is reflected in Vietnam's renewable energy development strategy to 2030, with a vision to 2050 and the national electricity development plan for the 2011-2020 period, with a vision to 2030 These two legal documents clearly demonstrate the Government's ambition to develop clean energy However, the objectives set out in these two documents are different 3.1.2 Legal provisions on planning for clean energy development The State has developed a basic legal framework for clean energy development planning In addition, the legal provisions in this area and the implementation process encountered some difficulties Specifically: In our country, there are no national energy development plans with accurate and measured data; The calculation of natural conditions, socio-economic conditions affecting the operation of clean energy projects has not been implemented 3.2 Provisions on incentives and support for scientific and technological development to exploit, produce and use clean energy Preferences and support for clean energy science and technology development include: Land incentives; Credit incentives; Improve competitiveness for businesses through scientific research activities; Tax preferences However, the reality of scientific development of clean energy technology in our country has not had many outstanding achievements 3.3 Regulations on preferential measures, support for exploitation, production and use of clean energy 3.3.1 Incentives on investment capital, taxes and fees 3.3.1.1 Preferential investment 15 Investors of clean energy development projects can borrow credit from Vietnam Development Bank to carry out production and business activities However, this Decree only identifies projects that produce clean energy from credit loans The reality of investors of clean energy development projects is not easy to access loans from Vietnam Development Bank Fellows have similar views with the views of scholars Phan Duy An should not establish a clean energy development support fund because the nature of this fund is not different from the Environmental Protection Fund, Vietnam Development Bank 3.3.1.2 Tax and fee incentives Clean energy development projects are favored for: corporate income tax and import tax 3.3.2 Preferential land infrastructure Projects on exploitation, production and use of clean energy are favored in terms of land infrastructure In the process of implementing these regulations, the biggest difficulty is that the region can exploit, produce, use clean energy to be "overlapped" on other socio-economic planning areas Besides, the allocation of land to the owner of clean energy development project is not simple 3.3.3 Incentives on the output market Electricity of Vietnam acquires all electricity produced from clean energy of grid connected factories However, according to investors, experts and the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the current purchase price of electricity is low, investors can hardly profit Besides, at present, the legal regulations on grid support are not clear and in fact, investors still have to buy and install equipment by themselves 16 The incentives and support for exploitation, production and use of clean energy in our country are similar to those of some countries in the world However, according to current Vietnamese law, preferential and supportive measures are mainly aimed at projects of exploitation, production and use of large-scale clean energy without considering the projects are small 3.4 Regulations on measures to limit exploitation, production and use of energy sources have a negative impact on the environment Fossil energy is the object of tax collection for environmental protection In addition to environmental protection taxes, gasoline, naphtha, recombinant preparations and other preparations for mixing gasoline are also subject to special consumption tax and environmental protection fees However, at present, the fossil, hydroelectric power industry and tropical industry still enjoy certain incentives to continue to develop 3.5 Regulations on state management agencies in clean energy development According to previous regulations, agencies involved in state management of clean energy development include: Government, Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Planning and Investment, Department of Electricity Regulation of Vietnam, General Department of Energy, Electricity of Vietnam (EVN), Energy Institute, Provincial People's Committee But now, the Ministry of Industry and Trade decided to abolish the General Department of Energy, established three units: Department of Energy Saving and Sustainable Development, Department of Petroleum and Coal, Department of Electricity and Renewable Energy 17 Although the structure is cumbersome, there are many contents of state management such as managing data on clean energy potential, building technical standards on equipment for exploitation, production and use of clean energy yet assigned to which agency And the abolition of the General Department of Energy will lead to the fact that many legal documents regulating the authority of this agency will not be possible 3.6 Summary of advantages and limitations in the status of the clean energy development law in Vietnam - The clean energy development law is currently regulated in many different legal documents These documents are usually underlaw documents with low adjustment effect - The government has set a target to show the expectation and vision of clean energy development However, the goal of clean energy development differs between legal documents and is not commensurate with the potential - The State has developed a full legal framework as a basis for subjects to prepare, appraise and approve clean energy development plans However, in fact, in our country, there are no national clean energy development plans with reliable data - Regulations on developing science and technology of clean energy are relatively complete However, the science of clean energy technology of our country has not yet developed and has not met the demand - Current law stipulates that only investment projects to build power plants using clean energy sources can borrow investment credit from the state And in practice, investors of clean energy 18 development projects not easily access loans from Vietnam Development Bank and other commercial banks - Regulations on exemption of corporate income tax, import tax for clean energy development projects are reasonable In addition, clean energy products are not subject to environmental taxes or excise taxes while fossil energy products are subject to these two taxes - Regulations on infrastructure incentives for projects to develop clean and reasonable energy However, the process of implementing land clearance and land allocation for project owners is not simple because it must consider other socio-economic plans, - Vietnam Electricity Group buys all electricity produced from clean energy of grid connected factories But the electricity purchase price is low and there is no mechanism to support grid connection - Preferential and supportive measures are mainly aimed at large-scale clean energy production and exploitation projects that are not interested in small-scale clean energy exploitation cases - Fossil energy must be subject to environmental protection tax, environmental protection fee and special consumption tax However, large energy corporations not want to develop clean energy Electricity selling prices in Vietnam are artificially low compared to international prices Clean energy development projects are mainly deployed in remote areas, so it is difficult to access the consumer market - State management authority on clean energy development is given to many agencies However, the agency responsible for developing clean energy has not been specifically identified 19 CONCLUSION OF CHAPTER The current legal regulations on clean energy development are regulated in many different legal documents These documents are usually under-law documents with low adjustment effect The Government has set a goal to show the expectation and vision of future clean energy development However, the goal of developing clean energy differs between legal documents The State has developed a full legal framework as a basis for subjects to prepare, appraise and approve clean energy development plans However, in fact, in our country, there are no national clean energy development plans with reliable data Regulations on science and technology development in general, clean energy science and technology in particular are relatively adequate However, the science of clean energy technology of our country has not developed and has not met the domestic demand Investors of clean energy development projects may borrow capital from Vietnam Development Bank However, the current law stipulates that an investment project to build a power plant using clean energy sources is entitled to borrow investment credit from the state And investors of clean energy development projects not easily access loans from Vietnam Development Bank Clean energy development project is entitled to preferential treatment in terms of corporate income and import tax Regulations on infrastructure incentives for reasonable clean energy development projects However, the process of implementing land clearance and land allocation for project owners 20 is not simple because it is necessary to consider other socioeconomic plans and get the consent of the people Electricity of Vietnam acquires all electricity produced from clean energy of grid connected factories However, according to experts, the current purchase price of electricity is hard for investors to profit The reason is that the Government intervenes to keep electricity prices generally low Regulations on incentives and support for grid connection are not clear and investors must purchase and install grid-connected equipment Preferential measures, support for exploitation, production and use of clean energy include: preferential investment capital, taxes (corporate income tax, import tax); preferential land infrastructure; Incentives for output markets represent the state's interest in developing clean energy However, preferential and supportive measures are mainly aimed at large-scale clean energy production and exploitation projects that are not interested in smallscale cases 10 Fossil energy including gasoline, oil and coal must be subject to environmental protection tax in accordance with the Law on Environmental Protection Tax in 2010 Besides, gasoline of all kinds, naphtha, recombinant preparations and Other preparations for mixing gasoline are subject to special consumption tax at the tax rate of 10% (Article of the 2008 Special Consumption Tax Law) However, Vietnam's energy market is being dominated by three groups, namely Electricity of Vietnam, Vietnam Oil and Gas Group, Vietnam Coal and Mineral Group Electricity selling prices in Vietnam are artificially low compared to international prices because subsidies for fossil fuels remain Clean energy development projects 21 are mainly deployed in remote areas, so it is difficult to access the consumer market These difficulties are limiting the clean energy development in our country 11 Currently, the state management authority on clean energy development is given to many agencies These agencies include both central and local agencies; general competent agencies and specialized agencies However, the agency responsible for developing clean energy has not been specifically identified Chapter 4: PERFECTING CLEAN ENERGY DEVELOPMENT LAW IN VIETNAM AND IMPROVING THE IMPLEMENTATION EFFICIENCY IN PRACTICE 4.1 Orientation to improve clean energy development law and improve the implementation efficiency in practice - Clean energy development law to institutionalize the Communist Party's viewpoint on developing clean energy - Building, completing and enforcing clean energy development laws must ensure the following principles: The principle of polluters must pay; The principle of beneficiaries must pay; Principles of sustainable development; Principle of stimulating economic benefits; Principles of fairness; Principles of using centralized financial resources - Policies and clean energy development law must be in line with international and regional integration requirements, especially international commitments to which Vietnam is a member - The improvement of clean energy development law must be put in the holistic relationship with other law fields 22 - To concentrate on building and perfecting legal regulations on exploitation and production of clean energy sources, which Vietnam has a prospect for development - The clean energy development to be successful must have significant support from the state - The clean energy development law needs to be public, transparent, clear, accessible and feasible 4.2 Group of solutions to improve clean energy development law Step 1: Complete the existing clean energy development law Step 2: Towards building a specialized law document on clean energy development 4.2.1 Complete the current legal regulations on clean energy development - Perfecting the target of clean energy development - Developing technical standards for technology of exploitation, production and use of clean energy - Completing the regulations on investment credit loan at Vietnam Development Bank - Completing regulations on electricity purchase prices and grid support - Developing and improve support and preferential mechanisms for small-scale clean energy development projects 4.2.2 Developing the clean energy development law We need to develop the clean energy development law This law covers the scope of activities that directly exploit, produce and use clean energy and activities to stimulate the exploitation, production and use of clean energy; Policies and measures to support and encourage the state to exploit, produce and use clean energy; The 23 position and role of parties in clean energy development include: state management agencies, subjects of energy exploitation, production and use 4.3 Group of solutions to improve the efficiency of law enforcement on clean energy development - Planning for national clean energy development - Develop pilot clean energy development projects - Identifying a state management agency in charge of clean energy development - Developing clean energy technology science - Gradually eliminating price subsidies for energy sources that have negative impacts on the environment - Training and developing human resources for exploitation, production and use of clean energy - Promoting the role of the provincial People's Committee on developing clean energy - International cooperation in clean energy development - Strengthening propaganda to raise awareness for individuals and organizations in society about clean energy development CONCLUSION OF CHAPTER Chapter of the thesis refers to orientations and solutions to improve clean energy development law and improve the implementation efficiency in practice The solutions proposed in Chapter of the thesis are synchronous and appropriate The construction and improvement of clean energy development law in Vietnam and the enhancement of implementation efficiency in practice need to follow specific orientations 24 Chapter of the thesis determines that the construction and improvement of clean energy development law should have a suitable roadmap with two basic steps as follows: Step 1: Completing the law on development existing clean energy; Step 2: Towards building a specialized law document on clean energy development Besides, Chapter of the thesis also offers a number of synchronous solutions to improve the efficiency of law enforcement in clean energy development in practice CONCLUSION In the coming time, the State needs measures to promote the clean energy development Facing that situation, building a unified and comprehensive legal system to promote the clean energy development becomes urgent It can be assessed that there has not been a research project that systematically, comprehensively and deeply discusses the theoretical issues and situation of clean energy development law in Vietnam This is the reason why the author selected the topic: "The law on clean energy development in Vietnam" as her doctoral thesis The thesis approaches the content of clean energy development law from the perspective of building and implementing clean energy development law The legal regulations on clean energy development have gained many achievements Besides, the reality of the clean energy development law is still facing many difficulties The thesis proposes solutions to improve the clean energy development law and improve the efficiency of implementation in practice LIST OF ANNOUNCED RESEARCH WORKS RELATED TO THE THESIS’ THEME Nguyen Thi Binh (2017), “The prerequisite and solution to develop clean energy in our country
