The projects were said to cost around US$83 million, financed with debt and equity from Indovina Bank of Vietnam and RCBC of the Philippines, while AC Energy will participate with at least 50% economic share, according to the company.

AC Energy formed a platform company with AMI Renewables last year to build renewable energy plants in Vietnam, including the 352MW Quang Binh wind project.

The company aims to exceed 5GW of renewable energy capacity by 2025.
