PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Vietnam is experiencing rapid growth in consumption and a commensurate expansion and evolution of their energy transmission network. This means that its Smart Grid roadmap will need to be refined to include applications that are not yet integrated within their existing systems. Therefore, a gap analysis has been performed in order to identify all the applications not yet integrated in the existing grid but which are fundamental to reach an adequate technological level in the transmission system for enabling a Smart Grid development. This analysis has been carried out starting with those identified issues and challenges in conjunction with including the functionalities that a transmission utility should have installed. The aim is to have a target operating model in line with the common current technologies and functionalities developed in most of the world’s power systems.
