SK Eco Plant announced on the eleventh that it held a roof solar energy completion ceremony at its Samil Vina plant in Dong Nai Province, Vietnam.
Rooftop solar energy is an influence generation method that produces electricity by installing solar modules on the roof of a constructing. By utilizing existing idle space, there is no such thing as a must secure a separate site for solar energy generation and there is no such thing as a need for location regulations.
Vietnam is an emerging country growing at a rapid pace, and its demand for electricity is increasing significantly. Nonetheless, it is understood that the facility supply is low in comparison with demand and the facility grid isn’t tightly constructed, resulting in frequent power shortages and power outages.
The 1-mega-art (MW) solar energy plant built on the roof of the Samil Vina factory is a self-consumption kind of distributed energy that uses 100% of the generated electricity on the business site. There isn’t any need to construct an extra power grid, and energy loss might be minimized throughout the transmission and distribution process. Samil Vina, a worldwide textile export company that has been requesting the usage of renewable energy from its customers, also opened its doors with the completion of the roof solar energy plant.
SK Eco Plant plans to expand the availability of self-consumption rooftop solar energy generation facilities in Vietnamese industrial complexes that require a stable power supply. Along with the recently accomplished site, rooftop solar energy projects totaling nearly 7MW are underway in Dong Nai, Binh Duong, and Haiphong in Vietnam.
As well as, we’re looking forward to securing carbon emissions rights. In 2021, Vietnam accomplished registration for the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). CDM is certainly one of the greenhouse gas reduction measures and is a project to secure carbon emissions rights from the United Nations (UN) in proportion to the performance of greenhouse gas reduction projects.
Topsun, a domestic solar energy company, will supply solar modules for this rooftop solar energy project. This can be a place where strategic investments were made in 2022, and it’s securing the worth chain of all the solar energy industry, including solar module manufacturing and business development. We’re also collaborating with SK Eco Plant on solar energy generation in Concho, Texas, and SK Hynix direct PPA.
Meanwhile, on the identical day, on the BCGE headquarters situated in Ho Chi Minh City, southern Vietnam, an MOU was signed with Sudokwon Landfill Management Corporation and BCGE to develop a greenhouse gas reduction project using renewable energy in Vietnam. This can be a project to secure international greenhouse gas reduction results through waste incineration and power generation.
Kim Jeong-hoon, CEO of SK Eco Plant Solutions BU, said, “Vietnam is a spot where economic growth and industrial development provide a stable supply of power and at the identical time demand for carbon reduction coexist.” He added, “Based on SK Eco Plant’s expertise in renewable energy solutions, we are able to solve global climate problems.” “We are going to resolve it,” he said.
