description

Vietnam is among the South-Asian regions the one that better supplies remote areas. However, many islands and remote areas are still not connected to the main grid and this fact jeopardizes their development, while forcing people to move to urban areas. With a high potential from renewable energy sources and a lot of islands, Vietnam has thus many favorable environmental features for developing the microgrids technology. In this chapter, a detailed analysis about opportunities and challenges for widespread deployment of microgrids technology in Vietnam is considered. Such analysis is based on the assessments of the potential from renewable energy sources in the country and of the national policy framework for the development of renewable energy sources. In the application section, results from the test of improved optimized control strategies to one microgrid system are presented. The results show that such cutting-edge technologies can improve the applicability of the microgrid technology thus reducing its Return on Investment cost.
