Renewable Horizons Vietnam: Accelerating Solar and Wind Integration

An independent power producer (IPP) active in Vietnam’s renewable energy market partnered with Eurogroup Consulting to refine its expansion strategy amid evolving regulatory and grid constraints. The client aimed to optimize project pipeline selection and secure long-term investment viability.

Vietnam’s renewable energy capacity has grown rapidly, particularly in solar and wind. However, grid congestion, policy adjustments, and tariff uncertainties have created challenges for investors. The client faced difficulties prioritizing high-potential projects while navigating regulatory risks and infrastructure limitations.

Eurogroup Consulting developed a strategic investment framework to prioritize geographically viable renewable projects. The framework integrated regulatory scenario analysis, grid capacity assessments, and financial modeling to optimize portfolio returns.

The project commenced with market mapping of renewable energy hotspots and grid transmission bottlenecks. Policy scenario modeling assessed potential tariff changes and regulatory shifts. Financial simulations compared project IRRs under varying grid and policy conditions. Stakeholder engagement with local authorities ensured regulatory alignment.

The consultancy advised diversification across solar and onshore wind projects to mitigate risk exposure. Early engagement with grid operators was recommended to secure transmission capacity. Additionally, the client was encouraged to explore energy storage integration to enhance dispatch reliability.

The refined portfolio strategy improved investment predictability and optimized capital allocation. By prioritizing grid-ready regions, the client accelerated project approvals and strengthened investor confidence. The initiative reinforced the client’s competitive position within Vietnam’s renewable energy transition.
