Estimated Data quality
Tier
estimated · T3-modelled

No live feed and no published total for this region. A typical-shape profile is scaled to a capacity-based or literature anchor.

Modelled profile, scaled to annual (±40%)

Uncertainty
±40% of peak GW

Published envelope for this tier. See the uncertainty model.

Source provenance
modelled-fallback · No verified upstream link

There is no verified upstream link. The snapshot is a typical-shape profile scaled to an anchor, or otherwise estimated.

Source
EVN/NLDC assessed 2026-05-09: NLDC (nldc.evn.vn) publishes daily dispatch reports as PDF only; no machine-readable CSV/JSON endpoint found. EVN open data portal does not expose curtailment data. EREA and World Bank USAID SAVE project cite 20–35% curtailment rates in Central/South-Central provinces 2023 (~2+ TWh/yr estimated), but only as PDF reports. T1 blocked: PDF-only, no programmatic endpoint.

Tier, provenance, and source are read at build time from src/lib/regions.ts — the same table the globe draws from. The validation record below is generated separately and gated against it by npm run ci:docs-drift.

Discrepancy analysis

No backfill and no TSO anchor. Region relies solely on the live snapshot; nothing to triangulate against.

Known limitations

No region-specific limitations recorded. See docs/methodology/historical-backfill.md §"Known limitations" for cross-cutting notes.
