• Installation location: Factory roof in Binh Duong

Phong Thanh Phat Co., Ltd is very interested in improving technology, investing in modern equipment to optimize business operations. At the same time, the Company also realized the potential and practical benefits of solar energy, so it decided to invest in a system with a total capacity of up to 3MWp.

Installing solar power has brought double benefits to investment enterprises. In addition to using clean energy to replace the grid, Phong Thanh Phat Company also has an additional source of income by selling excess electricity to Vietnam Electricity (EVN) at the price of UScent 8.38/kWh.

Thanks to more than 15 years of experience, supplying and installing more than 9,500 solar power systems with a total capacity of more than 560MWp in Vietnam, DAT Solar has received the trust from Phong Thanh Phat Company and became the EPC general contractor for this project.

In order for the project to operate stably and achieve high output, the owner has set a lot of technical and quality criteria for the project, especially in terms of panels, inverters and peripheral devices. Panels must come from a leading brand in solar power, integrating many of the latest technologies today; the inverter must be suitable for large projects, with a conversion efficiency of over 98%, safe and stable operation.

In addition, at the time when the customer was about to deploy the project, the market was in a state of shortage of solar panels. With outstanding equipment supply capacity, as a strategic partner of major global brands, DAT Solar has met the needs of owners to promptly turn on electricity by December 31, 2020, the time of expiration electricity purchasing power of EVN.

For the owner’s expectations about the project’s efficiency, DAT Solar’s team of experts and engineers have studied the actual situation, surveyed the roof structure, made feasible drawings and removed necessary materials to save investment costs and ensure construction progress. At the same time, prepare the source of the best quality equipment for the project.

The project chooses to use Canadian Solar CS3W-445MS panels that integrate many modern technologies, top 1 in quality, performance/price, suitable for large industrial projects, helping the system operate stably in 25 year life cycle and optimum performance and output.

After energizing and putting into operation, the project has met the initial expectations of Phong Thanh Phat Company in terms of technical quality, efficiency and high output as committed.

Outstanding performance of the project:

• Average power output 4,320 MWh/year
• Enterprises save nearly VND 9 billion/year
• Excess electricity can be sold to EVN for VND 1,940/kWh
• Reduce CO2 emissions by more than 3,802 tons/year
• Equivalent to planting 167,471 new trees
• Payback period is only 4.5 – 5 years.
