Super Energy’s nine solar power projects in Vietnam, with a combined capacity of 836.72 MW, earned revenue of THB854.4 million ($23.3 million), up 1.53% year-on-year. The firm attributed the growth to a slight increase in light intensity compared to the previous year.

As a result, Super Energy posted gross profits of THB440.1 million ($12 million) from solar projects in Vietnam, down 0.3% year-on-year. For wind power, the figure was THB120.4 million ($3.3 million), up 4.7%.
