China-based PV module manufacturer Risen Energy has announced that the company has signed a contract for a 61 MW power purchase agreement (PPA) project in Ninh Thuan with Tasco, a Vietnam-based company. The project is Risen Energy's first PV power station in Vietnam as well as one of the first PPA projects in the country.
Construction of the facility is expected to start in mid- or late September, with local government leaders from Ninh Thuan and top management executives from Risen Energy, including its president Wang Hong, scheduled to attend the groundbreaking ceremony.
The Ninh Thuan facility will be outfitted with 330 W high-efficiency polycrystalline modules suited to local environmental conditions and construction needs, laying an important technological foundation for the project's successful construction and operation. The project is on schedule to be connected to the grid in 2019.
