PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Initial situation
As a tropical country, Vietnam has great potential for the use of rooftop solar systems. The government is promoting this type of electricity generation at a political level in order to relieve the strain on the grid. In this way, it also wants to meet demands for the expansion of the transmission networks. At the same time, investors' interest in rooftop solar systems is growing because they can be installed at a flexible time, which also allows the capital requirements to be flexibly structured. However, there are still some hurdles to overcome:
- A large number of rooftop solar systems would impact grid operations and infrastructure, even if the individual systems are small.
- Vietnam lacks modern grid connection procedures, efficient data collection and processing, and secure integration into IT systems for grid connection.
- There are no specific technical standards and safety requirements for solar panels and rooftop solar systems.
Goal
The market conditions for commercial rooftop solar systems in Vietnam have improved.
Approach
The project focuses on three areas:
- Legal and regulatory framework
+ Analysis of the gaps in the technical regulations and standards for the grid integration of rooftop solar systems
+ Recommendations for alignment with international best practices
+ Facilitation of a technical working group to clarify the need for updated regulations and standards
- Competence development
+ Improvement of technical and administrative management at Vietnam Electricity (EVN), th
