Is Vietnam ready for a competitive bidding mechanism for solar energy?
Vietnam is now developing a competitive bidding mechanism for solar energy to improve grid efficiency, promote competition, and ensure a stable energy supply, but it’s currently in the works and hasn’t been implemented yet. As such, Vietnam has been in a transition phase since the end of the FiT policy.
How has the FIT program impacted solar power development in Vietnam?
The FiT program has been a major driver of solar power development in Vietnam, offering a tariff of 9.35 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for projects completed by June . This program led to a surge in solar capacity, reaching 4.46 gigawatts of new installations.
How do private solar power plants work in Vietnam?
Previously, owners of private solar power plants, whether rooftop or large-scale, could only sell electricity to the grid through conventional power purchase agreements (PPAs), with no option for direct sales to consumers. In Vietnam, there are two types of DPPAs: private-wire DPPAs and on-grid DPPAs.
When will large-scale solar power plants be implemented?
PDP 8 includes a list of projects for large-scale solar power plants, but while planned, they are not slated for implementation until after . These include both ground-mounted and floating large-scale solar power plants.
