Renewable electricity "save" real estate
Many real estate businesses, thanks to "switching" to wind and solar power, are seeing impressive revenue results in the first quarter of 2023, in the context of a sharp decline in real estate.

Notably, HDG's revenue contribution in this quarter came from the energy sector with revenue of VND543 billion, up 13% over the same period in 2021, while real estate revenue only reached VND312 billion.

Of which, ASM's revenue from real estate in the first quarter reached VND32 billion, down more than 71% year-on-year, while revenue from solar power reached VND196 billion, up more than 27% year-on-year.
