One of the key highlights of Vietnam's revised Power Development Plan VIII (PDP8) is the significant increase in the targets for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). The original PDP8 approved in 2023 had set out a target of 300MW of BESS capacity by 2030.
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
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.
This increase reflects Vietnam's commitment to integrating more renewable energy sources into its grid. Under the revised PDP8 onshore and nearshore wind capacity is forecast to reach between 26,066 MW and 38,029 MW by 2030, while offshore wind capacity is projected to be 17,032 MW by 2035.
