Sharp Energy Solutions Corporation (SESJ)(1) will construct mega
solar power plants at locations in Binh Thuan Province and Long An
Province in Vietnam, each with a capacity of approximately 49 MW-dc
for a combined capacity of approximately 98 MW-dc. SESJ received
the order from Gia Lai Hydropower Joint Stock Company(2) and
TTC-Duc Hue Long An Power Joint Stock Company(3) operating under
the umbrella of the Thanh Thanh Cong Group (TTC Group)(4).
The amount of electricity generated annually is forecast to be
approximately 149,740 MWh/year for both power plants combined. This
is equivalent to the amount consumed in a year by 79,353 average
Vietnamese households(5). The output from these facilities is
expected to allow avoided greenhouse gas emissions of 49,863 t-CO2
per year.
The government of Vietnam plans(6) to raise the generating capacity
of solar power facilities to 850 MW by the year 2020 and to 12,000
MW by 2030. In June 2017, the government introduced a feed-in
tariff (FIT)(7) system to further encourage the wider use of
renewable energy. Electricity generated at both of these power
plants will qualify under this system.
