CME Solar Powers Ahead with Record Growth in Rooftop Solar
CME Solar has marked a stellar year in 2025, achieving a significant milestone with over 160 MWp of rooftop solar power projects now under its operational umbrella. This impressive surge in capacity underscores the company’s burgeoning influence in Vietnam’s clean energy sector, solidifying its reputation as a key player in the nation’s green transformation.
The company’s success is not merely measured by its installed capacity but also by the calibre of its partnerships. CME Solar has cultivated strong relationships with a diverse range of clients, including numerous large industrial parks and prominent commercial and industrial corporations. Notably, these collaborations extend to many leading foreign-invested enterprises operating in Vietnam, such as the globally recognised Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Kefico, and the expansive AEON Mall retail network.
These strategic alliances serve as powerful testaments to CME Solar’s proficiency in executing large-scale rooftop solar power installations. Beyond technical capability, these partnerships also highlight the company’s unwavering dedication to sustainable development principles and its active role in driving the nation’s transition towards a greener economy. By enhancing energy efficiency and significantly reducing carbon emissions, CME Solar is directly contributing to a more sustainable future.
Flagship Project: Samsung Electronics Vietnam
A particularly noteworthy achievement this year was the inauguration and successful operation of a rooftop solar power system at the Samsung Electronics Vietnam factory located in Bac Ninh province. This project, unveiled in July, represents a landmark cooperation between two major entities – one a titan in the technology industry and the other a leader in clean energy.

Speaking about the success, CME Solar CEO Chung Dieu Tuan remarked, “The success of the project not only brings energy and economic efficiency, but also reflects the shared core values of sustainable development, innovation, and responsible actions in pursuit of a green and low-emission economy.” This sentiment encapsulates the dual benefits of such initiatives: tangible economic advantages coupled with a profound commitment to environmental stewardship and forward-thinking business practices.
Rapid Deployment with Vista Global
Further demonstrating its operational agility and collaborative strength, CME Solar, in conjunction with Vista Global – a subsidiary of Samsung C&T – successfully brought a rooftop solar power project at ESTec Vina Vietnam into commercial operation in August. What makes this achievement particularly remarkable is the swift turnaround time; the project was completed and operational in just two months following the commencement of construction. This initiative marks the inaugural project under the collaborative framework established between CME Solar and Vista Global.
Quantifiable Impact: Energy Savings and Emission Reductions
Cumulatively, through its extensive portfolio of projects in 2025 and nearly 100 rooftop solar power schemes that have been operational over the past seven years, CME Solar and its joint venture partners have made a substantial contribution to Vietnam’s renewable energy landscape. Collectively, these installations have supplied tens of millions of kilowatt-hours (kWh) of clean, renewable electricity.
This significant output has translated into tangible economic benefits for manufacturers, industrial zones, commercial centres, airports, and various other facilities, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars saved in energy costs. Furthermore, the environmental impact is equally impressive, with a direct reduction of tens of thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide (tCO2) emissions annually.
Expanding Reach: Northern Vietnam Development
While CME Solar has a strong presence in the southern and central regions of Vietnam, the company has also strategically focused its development efforts on the northern part of the country. This expansion into the north, where solar radiation levels are generally lower, showcases CME Solar’s technical prowess. The company has successfully signed and operationalised nearly 70 MWp of projects in this region.
CME Solar’s ability to achieve high efficiency in these locations is attributed to its:
* Optimal Design: Tailored solutions that maximise energy capture even in less ideal conditions.
* Advanced Panel Technology: Utilising cutting-edge solar panel technology for superior performance.
* Intelligent Operation Solutions: Employing smart systems to ensure peak operational efficiency.
Commitment to Excellence: Operations and Maintenance
Beyond project development and installation, CME Solar places a strong emphasis on the long-term performance and reliability of its solar power systems. The company boasts an experienced operation and maintenance (O&M) team, complemented by a proprietary 24/7 monitoring platform. This sophisticated platform leverages advanced data analysis and artificial intelligence (AI) to:
* Ensure stable and consistent system performance.
* Facilitate real-time detection of potential issues.
* Maximise the operational lifespan of installed systems.
Solar panels are a common sight on many of CME Solar’s rooftop projects, including this one at the cargo terminal of Tan Son Nhat International Airport.
