Against this background, this article examines the key drivers underpinning Vietnam''s energy storage market demand and provides an outlook on its future development.
In late 2022, VinGroup began construction of the country''s first lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery gigafactory through a joint venture (JV) with Chinese battery maker
At the same time, the demand for battery energy storage systems (BESSs) is accelerating, driven by Vietnam''s abundant renewable energy (RE) potential, particularly in solar and wind power.
Siemens and AES manufacture the Fluence Cube, lithium-ion-based battery energy storage solutions (BESS) in Vietnam, nearly 2 GW have been exported worldwide. Other companies,

In 2023, EVN PECC3 estimated that the cost for a 2 MWh BESS system was 360–420 USD/kWh, and that the investment would requires electricity prices in Vietnam above 18 UScent/kWh to be profitable – this is twice the current levels. However, BESS costs are declining rapidly.
Regulatory Landscape The Vietnamese government has recognized the importance of BESS in the country's energy transition. The revised National Energy Policy includes new incentives for BESS installations, such as tax credits and subsidies, which are aimed at accelerating the adoption of energy storage solutions.
The Current State of BESS in Vietnam As of 2024, Vietnam has practically no BESS installed. So far, only private renewable power projects have trialed BESS development, there is nothing at the utility scale. The largest electricity storage project in Vietnam is the Bac Ai Pumped Storage Hydropower Project.
The legal framework for BESS in Vietnam is still developing, but it will likely build upon existing energy laws. The Law on Electricity provides the overarching framework for the power sector, while specific regulations will need to be developed for BESS.
