Nexif Energy’s Subsidiary Agrees Tariff for its Ben Tre Wind Power Project Paving Way for Construction Start
A key milestone in the development of the 80MW Ben Tre Wind Power Plant project has been achieved through an agreement with Electricity Vietnam (EVN) on the tariff to apply to electricity sales from the project through an amendment to its Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). With this breakthrough, the Nexif Ratch Energy team is now focused on completing financing and starting construction in the second half of 2025.
The project, originally conceptualised and developed by Nexif Energy, has made steady progress since being transferred to Nexif Ratch Energy, whose team has worked collaboratively with all relevant authorities to agree on a revised tariff following the expiration of the Feed-in Tariff (FiT) regime in October 2021, positioning the project as one of the first transitional wind energy in projects in Vietnam to sign an amendment to its Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with a tariff agreed under Vietnam’s new renewable energy tariff regime.
Mr. Surender Singh, Founder and Chairman of Nexif Energy commented, “We commend the Vietnamese government for its proactive efforts in driving the country’s energy transition. Structural changes in the energy sector require a strong and coordinated approach between government, regulators, and, importantly, investors. As we have seen with the Nexif Energy Ben Tre Wind Power Plant project, success relies on strong, ongoing partnerships to overcome challenges and unlock new opportunities for the country’s development aspirations.”
Mr Matthew Bartley, Founder and Managing Director of Nexif Energy, added “We are please with the steady progress of Nexif Ratch Energy in successfully converting and growing its pipeline of renewable Energy projects in South East Asia, now totalling 378MW of operating, construction and contracted assets and 3.1GW at all stages of development.”
This progress underscores Nexif Energy’s commitment to delivering sustainable and reliable energy to Vietnam’s national grid, supporting the country’s energy transition, and contributing to the development of a greener future.
