Global energy storage technology and energy software services provider Fluence and ACE Engineering have opened a new automated battery storage manufacturing facility in Vietnam's Bac Giang Province.
Globally, solar generation continues to go from strength to strength. In 2021, after an additional 143 TWh of solar capacity added to the world's energy mix, solar's contribution crossed 1,000 TWh for the first time.
A consortium has proposed an $850 million investment to build a high-capacity battery plant for power storage in Ho Chi Minh City, aiming to boost Vietnam's energy tech and green manufacturing capabilities.
Major solar projects significantly contributing to this capacity include the Trung Nam solar power complex in Ninh Thuan province, one of Southeast Asia's largest solar farms with an installed capacity of 450 MW, and the Phu Yen solar power plant, delivering 168 MW.
