Gransolar General Manager considered that the target to raise the percentage of solar energy in the national power structure would challenge Vietnam. Besides the superior features, a limitation is that there are interruptions between power generating periods, because the solar energy system cannot generate power at night. Additionally, generation efficiency of a solar energy project also depends on a lot of factors such as radiation, temperature, wind, etc.
At the meeting, the two parties have discussed in more details about the feasibility when replacing other sources of power with solar energy, the cost of production as well as technical solutions to build solar power projects on water surfaces, etc.
Mr. Juan Pedro Alonso Salmerón asserted that with the experience of performing more than 80 solar energy projects all around the world, Gransolar Corporation hoped to collaborate with EVN in building solar energy projects – a clean, stable source of energy in Vietnam.
