Connection to the Power Grid: Grid connectivity requirements for power projects in Vietnam are governed by Circular No. 05/2025/TT-BCT, issued by the MOIT. This circular sets out the technical requirements applicable to the electricity transmission and distribution systems.
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.
The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) plays a crucial role in integrating renewable energy and electricity supply, contributing to supporting the power sector's goals towards global climate targets. The trend of BESS development has been accelerating in recent years.
One of the key highlights of Vietnam's revised Power Development Plan VIII (PDP8) is the significant increase in the targets for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). The original PDP8 approved in 2023 had set out a target of 300MW of BESS capacity by 2030.
