Many offshore wind power investors are holding their breath waiting for the next move of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Government.

Nearly three years have passed since the Prime Minister’s Decision 39 dated September 10, 2018 on wind power prices was issued, with the offshore wind power price over VND2,223/kWh (US$9.8 cent/kWh), but no offshore wind power project has kicked off yet.

Many foreign and domestic investors have surveyed and conducted research on offshore wind power in Vietnam. They have said the price of over VND2,200/kWh is “acceptable”. However, three years is still a short time for these projects to be implemented in reality, while this incentive price will end in two months.

Thang Long Wind, a $11.9-billion, 3.4 GW offshore plant, is being built in the central province of Binh Thuan.

Installation of floats will be completed in July to gather oceanographic data related to waves, wind and currents.

La Gan, another offshore wind farm, a joint venture between Asia Petroleum Energy Corporation (Asia Petro), Novasia Energy Company and Danish fund management firm Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), will have a capacity of 3.5 GW and cost $10.5 billion.

Offshore Wind Farms Show What Biden’s Climate Plan Is Up Against

The New York Times

The U.S. has fallen way behind Europe partly because of an old shipping law and opposition from homeowners and fishing groups.

A constellation of 5,400 offshore wind turbines meet a growing portion of Europe’s energy needs. The United States has exactly seven.

With more than 90,000 miles of coastline, the country has plenty of places to plunk down turbines. But legal, environmental and economic obstacles and even vanity have stood in the way.

Vietnam Symposium on Advances in Offshore Engineering 2021 (VSOE) – Sustainable Energy and Marine Planning

VSOE2021

OVERVIEW

Following the success of the first Vietnam Symposium on Advances in Offshore Engineering (VSOE2018), we are pleased to announce that the second Symposium, VSOE2021, will be held in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, on 22-24 April 2021. The second VSOE event is being organised by the Association of Vietnamese Scientists and Experts (AVSE Global) in collaboration with Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HCMUT) and the Vietnam Administration of Seas and Islands (VASI).

Focussing on the theme of “Sustainable Energy and Marine Planning“, VSOE2021 is expected to enhance the sustainable use of our marine resources while ensuring the effective management of marine activities including energy production and infrastructures as well as the health of the ecosystem.

VSOE2021 continues providing a platform for all participants to exchange knowledge and experience gained recently in offshore engineering, technology innovations, and marine spatial plan to achieve the goal of economic, reliable and sustainable solutions for offshore energy development, and ecosystem-based management of the marine environment.

VSOE2021 aims to gather researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and entrepreneurs together to discuss and promote technology and policy changes toward renewable energy, as well as to generate business opportunities in offshore energy, both domestically in Vietnam and globally.

The Symposium program will include paper presentations, posters and project demonstrations, along with prominent keynote speakers, researchers, academics and technologists from leading universities, research firms, policymakers, entrepreneurs and practitioners.

All submitted papers will be reviewed by experts in the field based on the criteria of originality, significance, quality and clarity. The proceedings of the Symposium will be published by Springer, indexed by Scopus and EI Compendex database. The VSOE2018 proceedings are available here.

Điện gió ngoài khơi: Kỳ vọng “đầu tàu” mới trong phát triển năng lượng tái tạo tại Việt Nam

ĐCSVN – Theo Hiệp hội Năng lượng Việt Nam, điện gió có thể thay thế nhiệt điện than, khí, phát điện 24/24 giờ…. Do đó, phát triển điện gió ngoài khơi sẽ là mũi nhọn, nòng cốt thay thế cho năng lượng hóa thạch hiện tại.

Việt Nam có tổng công suất gió ước tính khoảng 513.360 MW, lớn nhất khu vực Đông Nam Á, cao gấp 6 lần công suất dự kiến của ngành điện vào năm Đ2020 và lớn hơn nhiều so với tiềm năng các nước trong khu vực như Thái Lan (152.392 MW), Lào (182.252 MW) và Campuchia (26.000 MW).

Market to Watch: Vietnam Offshore Wind

Offshore wind is primed to become an optimal source of power reserve for Vietnam’s energy system. Its various advantages such as a high scalability, predictability flexibility, and of course its low environmental impact mean that this renewable energy technology can be used to stabilise and decarbonise Vietnam’s electricity system.

Giá cho thuê mặt biển của Việt Nam còn thấp

(TBTCVN) – Trao đổi với phóng viên TBTCVN, TS. Dư Văn Toán – Viện Nghiên cứu Biển và Hải đảo Việt Nam cho rằng, đơn giá cho thuê biển theo quy định tại Thông tư liên tịch số 198/2015/TTLT-BTC-BTNMT là quá thấp. Giá thấp sẽ khiến ngân sách nhà nước bị thất thu khoản này.

Offshore wind farms could power much of coastal China

Summary:If China is to meet and exceed its Paris Climate Agreement goal by 2030, it’s going to need to find a way to increase its wind capacity. Researchers found that offshore wind could be a big part of the solution.

Under the Paris Climate Agreement, China committed to rely on renewable resources for 20 percent of its energy needs by 2030. Currently, the country is on track to double that commitment, aiming to hit 40 percent by the next decade. Wind power is critical to achieving that goal. Over the past 20 years, China’s wind power capacity has exploded from 0.3 gigawatts to 161 gigawatts.

But, in recent years, that growth has slowed and the hopes for China’s wind-powered future have dampened.

Why? Location, location, location. Tiếp tục đọc “Offshore wind farms could power much of coastal China”
