"Authorities in many provinces and cities have taken measures to save energy to ensure stable and safe electricity supplies," the ministry said in a statement.
Public lighting in the capital Hanoi is being turned on 30 minutes later and turned off 30 minutes earlier than usual, the ministry said, adding that half the street lights along some major thoroughfares and in public parks have been completely cut. The ministry called on people to turn off electric devices when not in use and set air-conditioners' temperatures above 26 degree Celsius, adding that office buildings and shopping malls are encouraged to use just half of their exterior lighting systems.
Vietnam earlier this week opened a new 110-kV power transmission line from China to increase its electricity purchases from the neighbouring country, according to state media. The country is also seeking to import more electricity from Laos.
