SOLAR ELECTRICITY SERVICE COMPANY IN THE PROVINCE
OF BINH PHUOC, VIETNAM
Up to now, 4 DRE projects, all based on solar energy, have
been successfully implemented in Binh Phuoc province. One
40 kW micro-hydro turbine has been connected to the grid.
These projects were led in a purely 100% public subsidized
way. They made it possible to make the inhabitants of rural
areas aware of solar technology and involve the Provincial
authorities, which have been a reliable, motivated and well
informed partner in these projects. The province of Binh Phuoc
is active in rural electrification and renewable energies
fields.
Nevertheless, in order to target all the concerned households,
a new approach (cf. general approach), within the framework
of a public and private partnership, is proposed for developing
an economic sector in rural solar electricity service.
Delta PRO RES partners propose a bankable project implying
a partnership between private and public sectors to finance
it, and allow the company in charge of the operation (operator)
to be profitable, to reinvest and, in such a way, to increase
the number of beneficiaries.
During the seminar, the project was presented and a specific
session was dedicated to the Binh Phuoc project.
The presentation
of the project and the minutes
of the session are on line.
Moreover, in introduction of the session, two preliminary
presentations were done:
 • Solar
Rural Electrification supporting socio economic development,
by Mr. Trinh
Quang Ding, Solarlab
• Renewable
Energy Technologies’ potential dor rural electrification
in Vietnam,
by Mr. Pham
Kanh Toan, Energy Institute of Hanoi.

DESCRIPTION
Population
targeted by this project lives in rural areas in houses off
the electricity grid and scattered in fields.
About 31% of the population is still not connected to the
power grid, representing approximately 60 000 households.
Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) plans to reach many, but not
all, of the villages during the next 10 years.
Therefore, the project focused on those households that EVN
does not plan on connecting.
The number of such households is evaluated at the moment at
3 600, and are spread out over 5 districts. They represent
the priority group of Delta PRO RES action.
