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.
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.
Solar power capacity targets have been raised to between 46,459 MW and 73,416 MW. BESS capacity will support this growing share of solar and wind power in Vietnam's energy mix, helping to stabilize the grid and manage peak demand.
Notably, T&T Group, a major renewable investor with a portfolio of over 2,800MW across wind, solar, and LNG-to-power projects in Vietnam, recently announced a plan to launch joint-venture battery storage products in 2026, aiming to build Vietnam into a manufacturing and technology hub for renewable energy equipment. 5
