The very first testing of Virtual Power Plant (VPP) should be shortly organised with appropriate scale and amount of time in Viet Nam, so power system and market operators, as well as the Electricity Regulatory Authority of Vietnam (ERAV) have a basis for considering and issuing legal and technical regulations. The VPP can be then put into operation to support the integration of renewable energy resources into the country’s power grid.

To update the Smart Grid Roadmap and ensure the sustainability of the country’s electricity network, Viet Nam should take measures on eight indexes, namely, green energy, energy market, supply reliability, data analytics, monitoring and control, customer satisfaction, cybersecurity and integration of distributed energy resources.
