One of the planet's foremost glassmakers, NSG produces glass for solar panels that capitalizes on its thin-film formation technology. The Group's global operations include wholly owned subsidiary NSG Vietnam Glass Industries (VGI), whose factory is devoted to the manufacture of glass for solar panels.
Anticipating Vietnam's economic growth and with an eye to satisfying rising demand in the domestic architectural market, NSG established Vietnam Float Glass (VFG) near Hanoi in the north of Vietnam in 1995 and VGI near Ho Chi Minh City in the south in 1997. Meanwhile, demand for photovoltaic power generation soared worldwide.
Our workforce in Vietnam has grown to more than 1,200 associates who are leading the way in the development of solar module design and production. First Solar Vietnam is committed to producing the industry’s best thin film PV modules while maintaining a safe and secure environment for our associates.
NSG Vietnam Glass Industries is a wholly owned subsidiary of Nippon Sheet Glass. The sheet of glass on the cutting line is about 4 meters in length (above). VGI is in an industrial zone in Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province, southeast of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam's largest city. Many Japanese companies have factories here (left).

As countries around the world set about decarbonizing their economies by embracing renewable energy, they are increasingly turning to photovoltaic power generation.
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.
