DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Vietnam Solar Photovoltaics Equipment Market, By DC Voltage Type (400V, 600V, 1000V & 1500V), By Installation Mode (Ground Mounted Vs Rooftop), By End User, By Module Type, By Type, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2016-2026” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The Vietnamese Solar Photovoltaics Equipment Market was valued USD9209.75 million in 2020 and is forecast to grow at CAGR of 12.09% in the next five years.

Growth in the market is anticipated on account of increasing electricity demand from industrial, commercial as well as residential end-user segments. With favorable initiatives taken in the solar sector by the Government of Vietnam, an increasing number of investors and developers are also increasing their investments in solar industry in different regions across the country.

For instance, in 2017, the government introduced FiT of USD9.35 cents/kWh, which generated interest in solar projects, majorly in the southern regions of Vietnam. In 2019, the government revised the FiT to USD6.67-10.87 cents/kWh, depending on solar power technology and region of deployment. As a result, the cumulative solar capacity of the country reached 5.5 GW in 2019 from 237 MW in 2018. The Vietnamese government is now considering moving from FiT to a competitive bidding scheme for solar projects which would increase the installed capacity and create thousands of new jobs in Vietnam.

Solar photovoltaics equipment market in Vietnam can be classified based on DC voltage, installation mode, end-user, module type, type of equipment and region. In 2020, the Vietnamese Solar Photovoltaics Equipment Market was dominated by the polycrystalline type of module due to its cheap price. However, the monocrystalline type of module is forecast to grow at the highest CAGR, owing to its high efficiency in solar systems for energy generation.

Massive boom in rooftop solar installations is the key factor to create a more stable power supply. Electricity Regulatory Authority of Vietnam has taken steps for large as well as small rooftop installations. In April 2019, Vietnam’s Prime Minister issued a decision that set a new feed-in-tariff of USD83.80 per Megawatt Hour (MWh) for rooftop solar. Ground-mounted solar projects can receive USD70.90 per MWh. Throughout 2020, rooftop solar installations in Vietnam grew massively by more than 2000%, rising from a 2019 base of 378MW Peak to 9.58GW Peak, spread across almost 102,000 systems. State utility Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN) reported that rooftop solar installations totalled 2.9GW in November 2020 and 4.7GW on December 25, 2020.

According to the World Bank, there is a tremendous increase in electricity consumption in Vietnam. With a CAGR of 11% from 2016 to 2020, this consumption is expected to triple till 2030. As per the statistics published by ‘enerdata’, the total electricity consumption in Vietnam stood around 2,100 Kilo Watt Hour (kWh) in 2019 and this has increased on an average of 9% per year since 2010.

With this rising consumption, the average electricity price is increasing, and hence renewable energy is acting as a boon for the country’s electricity requirements. Currently, there is a lot of scope for renewable energy to grow and the share of renewable energy in total energy production stands at around 25.62% in 2019. Moreover, with government’s active participation to help the market grow, the solar PV equipment market is expected to continue growing significantly driven by the increasing consumption and prices of electricity in Vietnam.
