Case study

Self-consumption solar + BESS at Tay Nam Steel Group

A rooftop self-generation, self-consumption solar system combined with battery storage for a steel plant in Thien Loc Thanh industrial cluster (Tay Ninh), with technical advisory, load simulation and storage sizing by Orca Group and PNE.

Solution highlights

01

Load simulation per metering system

System 1 consumes 14,480 MWh a year with a 73.2% solar self-consumption rate; System 2 consumes 44,914 MWh a year at 98.8% — the basis for sizing the battery behind each utility meter.

02

Load shifting against the three-band tariff

Charging during off-peak hours or from surplus solar and discharging at peak; the off-peak to peak spread referenced from Decision 1279/QD-BCT is VND 2,208 per kWh.

03

Peak shaving ahead of the two-part tariff

The battery flattens the load profile, lowering peak demand from the grid and the capacity component once the two-part tariff applies.

04

Full use of surplus generation

Surplus solar output — averaging 7.45 MWh a day on System 1 — is stored for evening use instead of being curtailed.

Figures from the project techno-economic report (April 2026 version); actual output and savings depend on irradiation, load and the electricity tariff at the time of operation.
