According to a report from Vinh Long Provincial People's Committee, in 2025, the industrial and construction sectors continue to play a pillar role in Vinh Long's economic growth, making important contributions to production stability, investment attraction and infrastructure development.
Industrial production maintained its growth momentum, with 6 industrial projects put into operation, contributing to increasing production value; the industrial production index of the whole province in 2025 is estimated to increase by about 12% compared to the same period.
However, the growth rate has not reached the plan due to some thermal power units having to stop periodic maintenance, unfavorable weather conditions reducing wind power output and the impact from the US applying a 20% tax on some export items.
In the energy sector, the province is planned with a total power source of more than 9,127 MW, including thermal power, wind power, solar power, biomass and waste power; many projects are being operated, constructed or preparing for investment.
Basic electricity supply is stable, commercial electricity output reached nearly 4,390 million kWh, an increase of about 2% compared to the same period, well meeting the production and living needs of people in the area.
Power grid infrastructure continues to be concerned with investment, many 110 kV, medium and low voltage projects have been completed and put into operation, contributing to improving transmission capacity and releasing capacity for renewable energy projects.
Regarding industrial zones and clusters, the whole province currently has 5 operating industrial zones and many other zones and clusters in the infrastructure investment phase, calling for investors, creating room to expand industrial production.
In 2025, the province received and worked with more than 125 investors, newly granted 13 investment projects; accumulated 218 secondary investment projects are still valid, with a large total registered capital, contributing to promoting growth.
