Massively making solar power and then ‘putting mats’
The work is completed but has legal problems and cannot be put into operation; Spread investment, capacity exceeding demand… are the reasons why more than 4,000 rooftop solar power projects in Binh Duong have to be “covered”.
Being the first enterprise to invest in a 51 kWp solar PV system in an Industrial Park in Ho Chi Minh City. Thuan An (Binh Duong province), Vietnam – Singapore Smart Energy Solutions Joint Stock Company (VSSES), has been transmitting electricity on the grid to sell to the electricity industry for many years, but recently received a notice of temporary suspension of transmission because of road traffic. overloaded wire. Mr. Tran Anh Toan – Technical Director of VSSES Company said that in the past time, the unit has regularly received notices from the Binh Duong power industry about the reduction of the transmission date to the grid, which affects the revenue for the project. invested financial balance.
“We suggest that the power industry consider making up for it in the form of additional generation time according to the signed contract so that businesses can regain their investment capital, deduct additional time to use the panels,” said Toan. .
Vice Chairman of Binh Duong Provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Danh said that regarding the “call for help” of businesses investing in solar PV in the province, he had a working session with the Southern Electricity Corporation. Binh Duong has requested the electricity side to agree not to separate the connection for Solar PV projects and maintain the normal payment for customers who have signed the contract.
Meanwhile, Mr. Tran Nghia – Director of Energy Co., Ltd. admitted to being hasty in the process of investing in solar PV projects in Binh Duong. “At the time of 2019, when I saw businesses massively investing in solar PV, I also followed,” said Mr. Nghia, at the same time, saying that the company is facing the problem of solar power capacity exceeding demand. construction, we think, technological equipment is installed on the roof of the construction work without asking for permission, but the Department of Construction of Binh Duong province thinks that this is a construction work (grade IV energy works), because It was assembled without a construction permit,” Nghia said.
According to the Department of Industry and Trade of Binh Duong province, there are 4,069 solar PV projects in the province with a total capacity of 775,916 kWp. In which, there are 12 self-produced systems invested by EVN and 4,057 systems by other investors; There are 4,022 Solar PV investors who have not added legal documents as prescribed. From April 1, 2023, 90% of solar PV systems in Binh Duong have stopped paying, suspended contracts, and separated connections for projects that have not yet completed dossiers. Therefore, more than 4,000 solar PV projects in Binh Duong have to “cover mats”.
Mr. Phan Thanh Lam – Director of Binh Duong Xanh Renewable Energy Investment Joint Stock Company said that according to preliminary calculations, the investment value of more than 4,000 solar PV projects in Binh Duong province is nearly 12,000 billion VND. Most of the solar PV projects in Binh Duong, the investor cannot recover the capital. The forced shutdown causes great waste to businesses and people.
Why “cover mat”?
Sharing with Tien Phong, a representative of Binh Duong Power Company said that the survey process of solar PV projects in Binh Duong is not eligible, focusing on construction, environment and fire prevention. . With the characteristic of taking advantage of the roof of the factory for construction, most of the solar PV projects are items that arise after the factory or project has been licensed for construction, appraised for fire protection as well as assessed the impact. environmental action of the authorities.
Talking about the reason for announcing the reduction of power capacity, a representative of Binh Duong Province Power Company said that in many areas, because the previously invested power grid system has been calculated capacity, many solar PV projects develop. network has caused overload. In order for the power source to be stable and safe throughout, the power sector must moderate and reduce the generation of many solar PV projects on the grid.
“Currently, renewable energy sources are mainly simultaneously receiving and generating at the same time during the day, without a storage system, so the national power system is regulated, limited in capacity and power output to the grid”- Representative of Binh Duong Power Company explained.
According to Director of Binh Duong Department of Construction, Vo Hoang Ngan, currently, the guidelines of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Construction, etc. have not yet agreed on how to guide and solve difficulties and obstacles for the Solar PV system. installed in the works before 2020. Therefore, the locality has difficulty in issuing guiding documents.
