How much does a solar plant cost in Vietnam?

Vietnam's Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) has published the new feed-in tariffs for utility-scale solar plants. For projects without battery storage, the tariff will be VND 1,382.7 ($0.053)/kWh for the northern part of the country, VDN 1,107.1/kWh for the central part, and VDN 1,012.0/kWh for the southern region.

Could Vietnam replace fixed feed-in tariffs with standardized auctions?

As global costs for solar, wind, and battery storage systems fall, Vietnam could replace fixed feed-in tariffs (FiTs) with standardized competitive auctions to procure clean energy at the lowest cost.

Why should Vietnam invest in solar power?

Vietnam can leverage domestic solar manufacturing to meet domestic demand, implement direct power purchase agreements (DPPAs) enabling private renewable supplies, accelerate grid and battery storage infrastructure, and avoid costly LNG imports by prioritizing renewables.

What are the conditions for solar storage in Vietnam?

Conditions for systems with storage include a minimum storage capacity of 10% of the solar plant’s installed capacity, a charge/discharge time of 2 hours, and at least 5% of total generation used for charging the storage system. Overall, projects with storage receive higher FIT rates. Previously, Vietnam’s FiTs were relatively low.

Can solar and wind power meet Vietnam's near-term energy needs?

Such financial hurdles have challenged the government’s ability to use fossil fuels to expand electricity supply in step with Vietnam’s fast-growing economy. Contrastingly, solar and wind power’s lower capital requirements and faster development timelines are well-suited to meeting Vietnam’s near-term energy needs.
