1. Rooftop solar power market flourishes: Great opportunities for households and businesses
During the hot season, the demand for electricity increased sharply, especially in the Southern region. Rooftop solar power returned as an urgent solution. The current investment cost has decreased significantly, from 20-30% compared to previous years. Battery technology has also been upgraded with high efficiency and long life.
Not only saving costs, the system also helps production facilities proactively source electricity, reducing pressure on dependence on the national grid. At the same time, related legal policies are also being completed, strongly encouraging the “self-production – self-consumption” model.
2. Practical benefits of rooftop solar power
2.1 Saving monthly electricity costs
One of the top reasons why many households and businesses choose solar power is the ability to save significant electricity costs. Solar power systems operate strongly during the day – which is also the time when large power-consuming devices such as air conditioners, refrigerators, industrial fans, compressors are used, etc. Therefore, the self-produced electricity output can meet most of the demand, helping to reduce grid power consumption.
Depending on the scale of the system, users can save from 30% to 70% on their monthly electricity bill. After about 3-5 years, the system can recover its capital, thereby bringing long-term economic benefits throughout the 20-25 year life cycle of the solar panel.
2.2 Proactive energy sources in all situations
Rooftop solar power helps users be self-sufficient in electricity production and consumption – especially useful during peak hours or when electricity prices increase in steps. With the “self-use on-site” model, electricity generated from sunlight will be prioritized to be directly supplied to equipment in the house/factory, thereby significantly reducing grid electricity consumption.
For manufacturing enterprises or households with stable electricity needs, proactive power supply also means minimizing the risk of power outages, reducing production interruption costs, improving safety and continuity in operation.
2.3 Contributing to protecting a sustainable living environment
Solar energy is a clean resource, does not emit CO₂ and does not pollute the air, noise or wastewater. A 5kWp solar power system can help reduce more than 5 tons of CO₂ emissions each year – equivalent to planting hundreds of trees.
With the increase in population and the pressure from climate change, using solar power is not only an economical choice, but also a responsible action for the environment and the community. In addition, applying renewable energy will help Vietnam move closer to its sustainable development goals.
2.4 Increase the value of housing and construction assets
Installing a solar power system not only brings benefits but also helps increase the value of the property. Houses, motels, villas or factories equipped with solar power systems are often more highly valued in the real estate market, because buyers/renters know that they will save significantly on electricity costs in the future.
In addition, the project has a renewable energy system that also demonstrates the long-term vision and modern thinking of the investor, which creates a positive impression on partners, customers and the community.
2.5 Enhance corporate image, demonstrate social responsibility
For businesses, investing in solar power systems is not only about reducing operating costs but also an effective communication strategy. Using green energy demonstrates a commitment to sustainable development, environmental protection and social responsibility.
Many businesses have used investment in renewable energy as part of their ESG (Environment – Social – Governance) strategy, contributing to enhancing brand reputation, increasing the ability to attract partners, investors as well as high-quality human resources.
3. Reasonable investment costs, clear legal policies
Installing solar power systems is now more accessible. Not only are the equipment reasonably priced, but the legal procedures related to installation and connection are also increasingly transparent and convenient. Banks and financial institutions also provide preferential loan packages, creating conditions for people to access this solution more quickly.
4. Households and businesses boost investment again
In Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai, Binh Duong, etc., many households have proactively installed solar power systems from 3–5kWp. Meanwhile, manufacturing enterprises are taking advantage of factory roofs to build larger systems, directly serving internal consumption needs. In particular, this model does not require reselling electricity but only uses it internally, making it easier to manage and reducing risks in electricity purchase policies.
