The Decision contains provisions for funding, incentives (including a feed-in tariff and import duty exemption) and investment in the construction of solar power projects. It also sets out the responsibilities of the relevant state agencies and ministries including the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Planning and Investment and the Ministry of Finance.

This decision was amended in April 2020 to update the legal framework around solar projects. This new update (Circular No. 18) entered into force in July 2020 to replace Circular No. 16, updating the regulating framework and support mechanism (feed-in tariff) for solar installations.
