Major factories in northern Vietnam, where Samsung Electronics Co. and Apple Inc. suppliers operate plants, will be given priority for power by state-owned Vietnam Electricity Group at the request of provincial governments amid widespread blackouts.

Other clients considered important by local authorities will also get special access to power, according to a statement on the government’s website, which cited Ngo Son Hai, deputy general director of Vietnam Electricity Group, during a Wednesday meeting.
