The plan also called for 300MW of battery storage deployment and 2,400MW of pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) by 2030. State-owned public power company Vietnam Electricity (VE), is participating in a 50MW/50MWh grid-scale BESS pilot project which marks a first step towards that BESS goal.
Marubeni Green Power Vietnam, a wholly owned subsidiary of Marubeni—one of Japan’s largest general trading ‘sōgō shōsha’ companies—partnered with Vietnamese counterpart VinGroup for the 1.8MW/3.7MWh lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery energy storage system (BESS) project.

Marubeni aims to further strengthen its strategic partnership with Vingroup while developing new power services in Vietnam. Through these efforts, Marubeni will contribute to a stable power supply for commercial and industrial consumers in the country. Battery Energy Storage System Overview:
Vietnam’s Eighth National Power Development Plan, published in 2023, also acknowledges that the country’s solar potential is an estimated 963GW of capacity, and the government has since made moves to provide offtake tariffs and better enable onsite self-consumption.
The global residential solar storage and inverter market is experiencing rapid expansion, with demand increasing by over 300% in the past three years. Home energy storage solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new residential solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 38% market share, driven by homeowner energy independence goals and federal tax credits that reduce total system costs by 26-30%. Europe follows with 32% market share, where standardized home storage designs have cut installation timelines by 55% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets are adopting residential storage for backup power and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 4-7 years. Modern home installations now feature integrated systems with 10-30kWh capacity at costs below $700/kWh for complete residential energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving home solar storage and inverter performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 40% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,200/kW to $650/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow home systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing homeowner savings by 35% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 25% for solar storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $600/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with residential projects typically achieving payback in 5-8 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard home systems (5-10kWh) starting at $8,000 and premium systems (15-20kWh) from $12,000, with financing options available for homeowners.
