Vietnam kavatseb märkimisväärselt vähendada päikeseenergia paigaldamist ja anda teed tuuleenergiale

Vietnam's planned solar capacity is "too high" and needs to be lowered, according to a government communiqué, according to local Vietnamese media.

According to the reports, Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh said the solar capacity target specified in Vietnam's 2021-2030 Power Development Master Plan VIII was "too high" and should be lowered to make room for more wind power. The current solar capacity target is around 18.4GW.

The country's Power Development Master Plan VIII covers 2021-2030 and also includes a "Vision to 2045". Released in February last year, the plan has undergone several revisions.

Vietnami päikeseenergia projekte on vaevanud võrguühenduse ja piiramise probleemid

Näiteks oktoobrikuu revisjonis vähendati taastuvenergia võimsuse eesmärki. Päikeseenergia võimsuse eesmärk 2025. aastaks muudeti esialgses projektis esitatud prognoosi 26 240 MW ülemisest otsast 18 040 MW-le muudetud versioonis.

After experiencing rapid growth in solar development, Vietnam's rooftop solar capacity exceeded 9GW in 2020, of which about 6GW was installed in December alone. Vietnam has been facing serious power rationing problems, and many projects are still struggling to connect to the grid.

Jaanuaris palgati konsultatsioonifirma AqualisBraemar LOC Group (ABL Group), et viia läbi teostatavusuuring, et uurida mitmes fotoelektrijaamas paiknevate akuenergiasalvestussüsteemide (BESS) potentsiaali normeerimisprobleemide korral.

Meanwhile, a 500 million monocrystalline silicon ingot and wafer fab in Vietnam built by "Silicon Module Super League" (SMSL) member JinkoSolar is expected to come online this quarter.

We reached out to Vietnam's Ministry of Industry and Trade for comment, but had not heard back by press time.
