BESS solutions build up steam in Vietnam
The agreement aims to foster joint research, localisation of BESS production, and pilot deployment of advanced battery technologies in Vietnam''s renewable energy and smart
The Current State of BESS in Vietnam As of 2024, Vietnam has practically no BESS installed. So far, only private renewable power projects have trialed BESS development, there is nothing at the utility scale. The largest electricity storage project in Vietnam is the Bac Ai Pumped Storage Hydropower Project.
In 2023, EVN PECC3 estimated that the cost for a 2 MWh BESS system was 360–420 USD/kWh, and that the investment would requires electricity prices in Vietnam above 18 UScent/kWh to be profitable – this is twice the current levels. However, BESS costs are declining rapidly.
Energy Management: BESS can help manage the intermittency of renewable energy sources, ensuring a balanced and stable supply of electricity. Vietnam has 20.1 GW of solar and wind power, and congestion in the electricity transmission grid sometimes lead to waste of electricity.
In line with the trend of integrating renewable energy, Vietnam began implementing BESS systems from 2019.
