Vietnam considers building energy storage system
Since wind and solar power projects cannot provide all the electricity output to the national grid, building an energy storage system is being considered.
According to the Electricity of Vietnam (EVN), the total designed capacity of renewable energy sources has reached 21,560 MW. Of this, the real electricity capacity provided to the national grid accounts for 26 percent of load capacity at noon of ordinary days and 61 percent of holidays and weekends.
The energy storage systems will allow solar and wind power project developers to improve the operational efficiency and reduce the capacity they have to cut.
