TotalEnergies ENEOS successfully commissions a nearly 28 MWp rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system at the Samsung Electronics HCMC CE Complex (SEHC) in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
The project is the first and largest rooftop solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) project under Vietnam’s Decree 57 Direct Power Purchase Agreement (DPPA) framework via private-wire arrangement. The commissioning ceremony was attended by representatives from local authorities and partners, underscoring the importance of onsite renewable solutions in advancing industrial decarbonization in Vietnam.
Under this 20-year PPA, TotalEnergies ENEOS financed, installed, and now operates and maintains the system for Samsung Electronics’ second largest global manufacturing site. Comprising close to 45,000 solar PV modules, the system generates over 40,000 MWh of renewable electricity annually, covering approximately 26% of the site’s electricity consumption and avoiding more than 500,000 tons of CO₂ emissions over the contract period. The successful delivery of the project demonstrates how large-scale onsite solar solutions can be integrated into complex manufacturing environment.
The project supports Samsung Electronics’ RE100 commitments, enhances energy autonomy of the site, lowers cost and improves efficiency through reduced heat gain from covered roof areas.
Keunha HWANG, President of Samsung Electronics HCMC CE Complex, said: “This project marks a significant milestone in SEHC’s transition toward renewable energy and demonstrates our shared commitment to building a more sustainable future.”
Alexandru BUZATU, Director of TotalEnergies ENEOS Renewables Distributed Generation Asia Pacific, said: “We thank Samsung Electronics for their trust and partnership. The successful commissioning of the project reflects the strong collaboration and demonstrates how onsite solar solutions can support industrial decarbonization, while upholding high safety and quality standards throughout.”
