Ninh Thuan Solar Project continues operating successfully in Vietnam’s Ninh Thuan Province as the country expands its renewable energy capacity through both utility-scale and distributed solar developments. The 45MW photovoltaic facility remains an important contributor to the national electricity grid in 2026, supporting Vietnam’s long-term energy transition while demonstrating the continued value of utility-scale solar infrastructure in one of the country’s leading renewable energy regions.
Ninh Thuan Solar Project 2026 update
As of 2026, the Ninh Thuan Solar Project remains in commercial operation and continues supplying renewable electricity to Vietnam’s national grid. The facility generates approximately 76GWh of electricity annually while avoiding an estimated 25,458 tonnes of carbon emissions each year. The project continues supporting Vietnam’s growing demand for clean electricity as renewable energy becomes a larger share of the country’s power mix.
Vietnam has also strengthened its renewable energy framework by integrating operational solar projects into its updated power development plans. In 2025, the Ministry of Industry and Trade included 142 commercially operating solar projects in the national implementation scheme, reinforcing the government’s commitment to maintaining and optimizing existing renewable energy assets.
Although utility-scale solar projects remain essential, Vietnam’s market has increasingly diversified toward commercial and industrial installations. This shift is reflected in the recently commissioned Vietnam Largest Rooftop Solar project at Samsung Electronics’ HCMC CE Complex. The 28MWp development demonstrates how rooftop solar systems now complement utility-scale projects such as the Ninh Thuan Solar Project in expanding the country’s renewable energy infrastructure.

The continued operation of the Ninh Thuan Solar Project highlights the long-term importance of early utility-scale investments. At the same time, newer rooftop developments illustrate how Vietnam is creating a more diversified and resilient clean energy portfolio to meet rising industrial and national electricity demand.

Ninh Thuan Solar Project Boost Power Supply
The completion of the 45MW solar power plant project in Vietnam brings the annual power generation by the country to an equivalent of over 40,000 households. The plant is in line with the Vietnamese government’s plan to increase the country’s power generation to 12,00MW by 2030. The country is also looking to investing in floating solar power plants and has already installed 47MW of floating PV.
Vietnam and South Asia’s largest solar project currently under construction is the 600 MW Dau Tieng Solar Power Complex, located in Tay Ninh province, approximately 100 km outside Ho Chi Minh City. In June 2019, Dau Tieng 1 and Dau Tieng 2 achieved commercial operation and began delivering power to the Vietnamese state-owned utility company, Electricity Vietnam (EVN). In September 2019, Dau Tieng 3 went online and brought an additional 150 MW of generation capacity with it. The Dau Tieng project was developed by Dau Tieng Tay Ninh Energy JSC, a joint venture of Vietnam’s Xuan Cau and the Thai conglomerate B. Grimm Power Public Company Limited, with the engineering, procurement construction (EPC) work undertaken by Powerchina Huadong Engineering Corporation Limited.
In the Ninh Thuan province, the centre of Vietnam’s solar energy boom, the Trung Nam Group (a Vietnamese conglomerate) announced not too long ago that it would begin the construction of a 450 MW solar farm, which will make it one of the largest in Southeast Asia.
