| + | During the last 25 years Viet Nam’s economic growth reached more than 6% each year. At the same time, the energy demand increased almost twice as fast as the GDP. With an expected continuous increase of energy demand in the next years, Viet Nam’s energy sector will have to face many challenges, such as limited domestic fossil ressources, air pollution and climate change, causing amongst other things water scarcity. Viet Nam has been ranked among the five countries, that will be most affected by climate change.<ref name="Dara (2012): Climate Vulnerability Monitor 2nd. http://daraint.org/climate-vulnerability-monitor/climate-vulnerability-monitor-2012/country-profile/?country=Vietnam">Dara (2012): Climate Vulnerability Monitor 2nd. http://daraint.org/climate-vulnerability-monitor/climate-vulnerability-monitor-2012/country-profile/?country=Vietnam</ref> Another issue is the country's unreliable power supply, especially in rural areas. In order to face these challenges, legislative conditions have to be adopted and the framework conditions for investments have to be reformed to strengthen foreign investments and eventually stimulate the expansion of renewable energy generation capacity.<br/> | ||

| + | A reliable power supply is an important requirement for an emerging market like Viet Nam. By the end of 2014, 34 GW generation capacity was installed in the country, producing around 146 TWh electricity. Assumptions of the Power Development Plan VII (PDP VII) predict an overall power demand increase by a factor of almost 2.4 in the next 5 years, reaching a demand of 350 TWh in 2020, with an installed capacity of 75 GW. According to the PDP, coal power plants will mainly contribute to the essential capacity expansion, surpassing hydropower as primary resource for electricity generation.<br/> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Currently, the power production is still dominated by hydropower with a share of 41% in electricity generation, followed by natural gas with 31% and coal with 26%. Due to limited domestic coal and gas resources, Viet Nam’s fossil import dependency will increase. Except for hydropower, markets for renewable energies such as for wind and solar power are in a very early stage of development. Knowledge and reliable information about project development or regulative processes is very limited. <ref name="PDP VII: Prime Minister decision No. 1208/QD-TTg. http://www.nti.org/media/pdfs/VietnamPowerDevelopmentPlan2030.pdf?_=1333146022">PDP VII: Prime Minister decision No. 1208/QD-TTg. http://www.nti.org/media/pdfs/VietnamPowerDevelopmentPlan2030.pdf?_=1333146022 </ref><br/> | ||

In the generation market, EVN is single-buyer and power transmission and distribution systems are exclusively operated by subsidiary companies of the utility. However, the goal of the government is to develop a competition-based generation, wholesale and retail market until 2023, in particular in order to attract private and foreign investments in the energy sector. The average electricity selling price continuously increased in the last years, but with 1622 VND/kWh (incl.

Introduction
During the last 25 years Viet Nam’s economic growth reached more than 6% each year. At the same time, the energy demand increased almost twice as fast as the GDP. With an expected continuous increase of energy demand in the next years, Viet Nam’s energy sector will have to face many challenges, such as limited domestic fossil ressources, air pollution and climate change, causing amongst other things water scarcity. Viet Nam has been ranked among the five countries, that will be most affected by climate change.[1] Another issue is the country's unreliable power supply, especially in rural areas. In order to face these challenges, legislative conditions have to be adopted and the framework conditions for investments have to be reformed to strengthen foreign investments and eventually stimulate the expansion of renewable energy generation capacity.
Further information about Viet Nam see: All articles about Viet Nam on energypedia
General Overview of Viet Nam's Energy Situation
A reliable power supply is an important requirement for an emerging market like Viet Nam. By the end of 2014, 34 GW generation capacity was installed in the country, producing around 146 TWh electricity. Assumptions of the Power Development Plan VII (PDP VII) predict an overall power demand increase by a factor of almost 2.4 in the next 5 years, reaching a demand of 350 TWh in 2020, with an installed capacity of 75 GW. According to the PDP, coal power plants will mainly contribute to the essential capacity expansion, surpassing hydropower as primary resource for electricity generation.
Currently, the power production is still dominated by hydropower with a share of 41% in electricity generation, followed by natural gas with 31% and coal with 26%. Due to limited domestic coal and gas resources, Viet Nam’s fossil import dependency will increase. Except for hydropower, markets for renewable energies such as for wind and solar power are in a very early stage of development. Knowledge and reliable information about project development or regulative processes is very limited. [2]
Fig. 1: Electricity Production and Installed Capacity 2014 by Generation Technology
Governance and Market Structure
The Vietnamese electricity market is monopolistic, dominated by the state-owned-enterprise EVN, which is supervised by the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT). In the generation market, EVN is single-buyer and power transmission and distribution systems are exclusively operated by subsidiary companies of the utility. However, the goal of the government is to develop a competition-based generation, wholesale and retail market until 2023, in particular in order to attract private and foreign investments in the energy sector. The average electricity selling price continuously increased in the last years, but with 1622 VND/kWh (incl. VAT; approx. 7.5 USCent/kWh) it is still too low to finance overall electricity generation costs. EVN operated at a deficit of 790 million US$ in 2014.[3]

Renewable Energies in Viet Nam
In 2014, renewable energies (including hydropower) contributed with 41% to Viet Nam’s electricity demand, but this share was almost exclusively accounted for by hydropower. According to the MoIT Small Hydropower (SHP) can still be expanded, but in general Viet Nam’s hydropower potential is nearly exploited. In contrast, wind, solar and biomass expansion potentials are high and to a great extent untapped. In the PDP VII, expansion targets for renewable energy generation capacities are set until 2030 as shown in the figure below.[2]
Fig. 3: Renewables Capacity Targets until 2030 (according to PDP VII)
The government also has incentives for solar projects until mid 2019 and for wind project up to 2021. Vietnam aims to have solar and wind instablled capacity of 0.8MW and 0.85MW respectively by 2020. However, a total of 2.8GW wind and 10GW solar power plants have already been approved until February 2019.
Wind Power
Although potential for wind power development in Vietnam is high, only 190 MW have been put into operation up until now. While many projects are in the planning phase, they face substantial market barriers, such as deficient wind measurement data reliability and a low feed-in-tariff for wind energy of only 7.8 Ct/kWh. On September 2018, Vietnam increase the FIT from 7.8 to 8.5 US cents/kWh for onshore, and 9.8 US cents/kWh for offshore wind power projects, according to Decision No.39/2018/QD-TTg. The FIT is implement from 1 Nov 2018 and will be valid for 20 years from the commencement of the wind projects. The wind power that commenced operation before 1 Nov 2018 will be able to apply for this new tariff for the remaining period of their Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).[4]

Bioenergy
According to the PDP7 a bioenergy generation capacity of 500 MW will be installed until 2020. The largest regional feedstock potential is located in the Mekong delta region. Feed-in tariffs for electricity co-generation and municipal-solid-waste projects are already established, but projects are mostly in an early planning phase. It is assumed that the support mechanism and framework conditions have to be adopted and expanded on further applications and feedstock in order to strengthen biomass power deployment in Viet Nam.

Solar Power
In general, Viet Nam can be considered as a country with high solar energy potential. The solar resources are comparable to countries like Italy, Spain, and California or – staying in the region – China or Thailand. However, the current Vietnamese solar PV market is estimated to be only around 5 MWp, with 80% off-grid applications in rural areas.
Solar energy is not yet integrated into political energy development strategies, such as the national Power Development Plan (PDP). However, solar energy will possibly be included in the revision of the PDP VII. According to press releases, larger ground-mounted PV systems are under development.
Further information are provided on Solar Energy Country Analysis Vietnam.
Transmission and Distribution System
The national transmission and distribution grid has to be extended in synchronization with increasing power demand and generation capacity in order to reduce power outages, losses and increase the quality of supply. During the period of 2014-2020 an investment volume of around 12.4 billion US$ is estimated to be needed for expansion. Viet Nam’s rural electrification rate was 97.3% by the end of 2013. The government aims at 100% by 2020. According to the PDP 7 Viet Nam wants to implement a cooperation and connectivity program with neighbouring countries and Mekong sub-region power grids. High voltage line connections with Laos, Cambodia and China already exist.
In terms of power reliability Viet Nam is currently ranked 113 out of 144 countries.[5] In rural areas, power shortages and blackouts, lasting longer than 5 min occurred around 20 times per year in 2013.[6]
