FOREWORD
1. The necessity of the research
Currently, many countries around the world have tried to
research, find and use new energy sources to replace traditional fossil
energy sources. We often use the definition of clean energy to refer
to energy sources that are cost-effective and friendly to the
enviroment. In Vietnam, two large hydropower supply sources and
thermal power plants do not meet the demand and our country still
has to import electricity. Meanwhile, Vietnam is considered a
country with great potential for clean energy. Clean energy
development effective or not depends very much on the policies,
legal policies and the legal system of the state. However, it is
possible to assess the system of legal documents on clean energy
development in our country. Recognizing the importance of the law
on clean energy development and the need to build and perfect this
legal field in our country, the author would like to select the topic
"The law on clean energy development in Vietnam” in order to do
the doctoral thesis.
2. Research purposes
- Supplementing and completing the theoretical basis of clean
energy development law in Vietnam.
- Analyzing and evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of
the clean energy development law.
- Providing a number of solutions to improve the clean energy
development law and improve the implementation efficiency in
practice.
3. Research tasks
- Analyzing and identifying the nature of some concepts.

clean energy development.
- Understanding the experience of some countries in the world in
clean energy development law.
- Analyzing the orientations and proposing recommendations to
improve the clean energy development law in Vietnam and improve
the implementation efficiency in practice.
