Co-funded by a grant from U.S. Mission Vietnam, the pilot project will demonstrate how energy storage can help Vietnam integrate more renewable energy into its power system to meet ambitious climate goals.
The BESS project aims to demonstrate the commercial viability of battery energy storage in Vietnam and showcase the practical benefits of renewable energy, including its reliability and efficiency. It also seeks to help Vietnam meet its climate action targets.
The largest electricity storage project in Vietnam is the Bac Ai Pumped Storage Hydropower Project. Located in Ninh Thuan province, the project has a capacity of 1,200 MW and is expected to play a crucial role in stabilizing the grid when it completes in a few years.
Since 2017, the company has been developing and operating renewable energy projects in Vietnam, which include the 252 MW wind project in Quang Binh and the 80 MW solar plants in Khanh Hoa and Dak Lak. In October 2021, U.S. Mission Vietnam awarded AMI AC Renewables a grant of US$2.9 million to spearhead and develop the project.
Regulatory Landscape The Vietnamese government has recognized the importance of BESS in the country's energy transition. The revised National Energy Policy includes new incentives for BESS installations, such as tax credits and subsidies, which are aimed at accelerating the adoption of energy storage solutions.
First announced at the annual U.S.-Vietnam Energy Security Dialogue, the project plans to use a Honeywell energy storage system integrated into a 50-MWp solar farm operated by AMI Khanh Hoa. AMI AC Renewables is a joint venture between ACEN and AMI Renewables.
