Envision Energy (renewable energy company) has secured a 200-megawatt nearshore wind project in Vietnam through a partnership with REE Energy, the country's leading renewable energy investment business.

 

The deal represents Envision's largest overseas nearshore wind project to date and its largest wind project in Vietnam, marking what both companies describe as a significant expansion of wind energy infrastructure across Southeast Asia.

 

1. Project Details and Timeline

The project, known as Phu Cuong 1A and 1B, will deploy 25 Envision EN-226/8.X YE wind turbines across the combined 200 MW installation. Batch deliveries of the turbines are scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2027, with grid connection targeted for October 2027.

 

The project is located in nearshore waters and has been designed to perform under the low- to medium-wind conditions characteristic of Vietnam and the broader Southeast Asian region.

According to Envision, the turbines selected for the project combine what the company calls proven technology, strong site adaptability, and reliable lifecycle performance.

 

The company said the project is expected to provide a replicable model for turbine selection, engineering execution, project delivery, and long-term operations and maintenance, with the goal of reshaping industry benchmarks for nearshore wind development across the ASEAN region.

 

2. A Second Collaboration with REE Group

The Phu Cuong project marks the second major collaboration between Envision Energy and REE Group. The two companies previously partnered on the 128 MW Vinh Long wind project in Vietnam.

 

The first batch of turbines for the Vinh Long project rolled off the production line at the end of April 2026, and all wind turbine units are being shipped to the Vinh Long project site in batches according to schedule.

Envision cited the execution progress on the Vinh Long project as a foundation for deepening the relationship with REE and scaling that collaboration through the Phu Cuong project. The combined capacity of both projects positions Envision as a significant player in Vietnam's nearshore wind sector.

 

3. Strategic Vision: The Future Energy System

Edward Hou, Senior Vice President and President of the Asia-Pacific Region at Envision Energy, framed the Phu Cuong project within a broader strategic context the company calls its Future Energy System.

 

Speaking at the announcement, Hou said the next phase of wind development would be defined not only by scale, but by how effectively technology can be matched to local resources and long-term system needs.

"Through the Phu Cuong Project, Envision aims to show how locally adapted technology, reliable execution and lifecycle services can deliver enduring value," Hou said.

 

He described the project as an important step in Envision's Future Energy System across Southeast Asia, which the company characterizes as integrating intelligent renewable generation, energy storage, AI-powered energy management, and digital capabilities to build more reliable and resilient clean-energy infrastructure.

Hou added that the company looks forward to advancing what it calls a scalable model for nearshore wind development and supporting the energy transition in Vietnam and across the region.

 

4. REE Energy's Perspective

Nguyen Quang Quyen, Managing Director of REE Energy, cited the progress achieved on the Vinh Long project as a key driver of confidence in expanding the partnership with Envision.

"The development of nearshore wind in Vietnam calls for long-term partnerships built on suitable technology, reliable delivery and sustained asset performance," Quyen said.

He described the Phu Cuong project as an opportunity to apply the capabilities developed through the Vinh Long collaboration at greater scale, and said the two companies aim to deliver a high-quality project that supports the reliable development of nearshore wind and contributes to Vietnam's long-term energy transition.

 

5. Context Within Vietnam's Energy Sector

The announcement comes as Vietnam continues to develop its renewable energy capacity. Nearshore wind has been identified by both companies as a segment particularly suited to the country's geographic and meteorological conditions, with the low- to medium-wind environment of Vietnam's coastal waters presenting both a challenge and an opportunity for turbine manufacturers and project developers.

The EN-226/8.X YE turbine model selected for Phu Cuong has been positioned by Envision as specifically adapted to those conditions. The 25-turbine deployment across 200 MW means each unit carries a rated capacity in the 8-megawatt class, a scale consistent with the company's pitch to regional developers looking for turbines capable of maximizing output in less-than-ideal wind resource environments.

Envision Energy describes itself as a global leader in green technology. REE Energy is the renewable energy investment arm of REE Group, which the announcement identifies as Vietnam's leading renewable energy investment business. The Phu Cuong project was announced from Ho Chi Minh City on August 3, 2026.

 

6. Powering Your Pipeline: Unlock Every Opportunity Across Vietnam's Energy Sector

The Vietnam power sector is expanding at a pace that leaves little room for missed opportunities, yet without the right intelligence infrastructure, even the most experienced teams find themselves reacting rather than planning.
