Long An TTC is a 49 MW solar power plant in Long An, Vietnam. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 20,848 homes (estimated). It ranks #166 of 298 Vietnam power plants by installed capacity. As a non-combustion source, it has no direct CO₂ emissions from generation. In context, solar supplies about 7.4% of Vietnam's electricity; the national grid averages 461 gCO₂/kWh (45.4% low-carbon) (2025).

At 49 MW, Long An TTC is around the median solar plant in Vietnam (50 MW). Solar PV converts sunlight directly into electricity with no moving parts or fuel; output varies by time of day and weather, so it pairs with storage or flexible backup.

This solar plant converts sunlight directly into electricity with photovoltaic panels. It sits in a tropical savanna climate (Köppen Aw) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 10.7°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
Monthly mean temperature
Heating degree-days here run 100% below the median power plant in this dataset — a proxy for how much extra energy heated equipment must replace through its surfaces in winter.
Climate heat-demand index: 13/100 — this site sits in the bottom third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.
In colder climates, uninsulated hot equipment (boilers, turbines, valves, steam lines) loses proportionally more heat to ambient air — exactly the loss Inzonex modular insulation is designed to cut.
Solar PV loses ~0.35%/°C above 25°C cell temperature — roughly 1.5% at warm-season highs here (estimate).

The #11 largest solar power plant of 16 in Vietnam by capacity.
Vietnam has 16 solar power plants in this dataset, together about 1,616 MW of capacity.

Plants like this lose energy through hot turbines, heat exchangers, valves and steam lines. Inzonex makes removable, reusable turbine & heat-exchanger insulation that cuts that loss by up to 90% and holds surface temperatures under 45°C, unclipping in seconds for maintenance.
