Battery energy storage systems are opening up new opportunities for rooftop solar power in Việt Nam, improving electricity efficiency and strengthening energy security.
With a planned capacity of 495MW and an estimated investment of US$768 million, the project is expected to commence commercial operations by December 31, 2028.
Việt Nam faces rising risks of power shortages through the end of the decade as electricity demand from data centres, artificial intelligence (AI), semiconductor manufacturing and electrified transport is booming.
Access to stable green energy at reasonable costs is now becoming the decisive factor as green power is directly affecting investment decisions by multinational corporations, the ability to retain export orders and businesses'' participation in global value chains.
An initial study of the renewable energy hub model completed in July 2025 proposed an integrated ecosystem combining renewable energy generation with manufacturing, infrastructure and supporting services, research and innovation and workforce training.
The oil and gas industry no longer enjoys the favourable conditions of previous decades, with many major oil and gas fields entering decline while new discoveries are increasingly located in deeper waters, requiring higher investment, more advanced technology and stricter...
A new wave of global demand for greener vessels and mounting pressure to diversify supply chains is offering Việt Nam a rare opportunity for the country to revive and expand its shipbuilding industry after more than a decade of restructuring.
Renewable energy and nuclear power now account for around 42 per cent of global electricity generation, while wind and solar power are on track to overtake coal as the world''s top source of electricity.
Việt Nam must accelerate its energy transition and remove longstanding bottlenecks in infrastructure and institutional frameworks to sustain double-digit economic growth.
National Assembly Vice Chairman Nguyễn Hồng Diên praised GWEC’s role and contributions in promoting renewable energy worldwide through policy recommendations and its active cooperation with Việt Namese agencies and partners in recent years.
A landmark electricity deal marks a new step in Việt Nam’s clean energy transition as a global manufacturer becomes the first to buy renewable power directly from a producer through the national grid.
Rooftop solar power, especially when combined with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), is emerging as a strategic solution, paving the way for a greener, more flexible and more sustainable industrial park model.
To sustain GDP growth of around 10 per cent, electricity demand is expected to increase by 12-15 per cent annually, requiring an additional 7,000-8,000 MW of new capacity each year.
