On April 23rd, Hung Nhon Group, De Heus Vietnam, Bel Ga Vietnam, and TTC Energy officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement in the field of solar power.
This event marks a step forward in integrating clean energy into high-tech agriculture – towards sustainable development and increasing the advantages of Vietnam's agricultural sector.
The signing ceremony was also attended by leaders of the Tay Ninh Provincial People's Committee and representatives from the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment.
Forming a clean energy ecosystem in agriculture
According to the cooperation agreement, the parties will coordinate the implementation of a series of rooftop solar power projects on farms and factories belonging to the De Heus - Bel Gà - Hùng Nhơn linkage chain. The project will be implemented synchronously in many localities, maximizing the use of existing roof space to produce clean electricity to directly serve production activities.
This collaboration helps businesses proactively manage energy, optimize costs, reduce emissions, and meet global environmental standards.
Mr. Dang Huynh Anh Tuan, Chairman of TTC Energy, stated that the project has an initial total capacity of 12.5 MWp, with a planned expansion to over 20 MWp in 2026 and the possibility of further cooperation between the parties up to 50 MWp in the future.
It is expected that the system, to be installed in 2026, will provide approximately 18,500 MWh of electricity annually, equivalent to nearly 360,000 MWh over its 20-year lifespan. This will contribute to a reduction of approximately 18,000 tons of CO₂ annually, equivalent to nearly 360,000 tons throughout its operational life.
A key highlight of the signed cooperation agreement is that each party assumes a distinct role, creating a strong link throughout the entire value chain.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Vu Manh Hung, Chairman of Hung Nhon Group, affirmed that this cooperation in solar power development is an important step in Hung Nhon's strategy of developing high-tech and sustainable agriculture. From its inception, Hung Nhon has identified a modern, closed-loop livestock farming model that meets international standards.
This strategy is being realized by Hung Nhon through its DHN project chain in Tay Ninh and the Central Highlands region. To date, De Heus and Hung Nhon have implemented 15 projects in Tay Ninh and the Central Highlands region, with a total investment of approximately 12,400 billion VND. Tay Ninh is identified as a key area in this linkage chain, with 12 projects and a total investment of 10,000 billion VND, playing a central role in forming a large-scale livestock farming, processing, and export ecosystem.
"Therefore, integrating solar energy systems into the DHN project chain not only optimizes operating costs but also contributes to reducing emissions, enhancing product value, and improving competitiveness in the market. Through cooperation with TTC Energy, De Heus, and Bel Gà, we expect to replicate this model, gradually forming a green, efficient, and sustainable agricultural ecosystem," Mr. Vu Manh Hung added.
Towards long-term sustainable development
Mr. Johan van den Ban - General Director of De Heus Vietnam and Asia - shared: "Integrating solar power into project chains in Vietnam is concrete evidence of this commitment. Through cooperation with TTC Energy, Bel Gà, and Hung Nhon Group in developing solar energy systems at breeding farms, we expect to continue expanding green, efficient, and responsible agricultural models, thereby making a practical contribution to the sustainable development of Vietnam's livestock industry."
Mr. Ben Cliteur, General Manager of Bel Gà Vietnam and Asia, shared: "For Bel Gà, sustainable development is not just about producing high-quality one-day-old chicks, but also about how we operate our entire production system. Integrating solar power into our farms and hatcheries within the production value chain helps Bel Gà reduce emissions, optimize energy costs, and enhance the competitiveness of our products.
Through our cooperation with TTC Energy, De Heus, and Hung Nhon, we believe this model will be replicated, contributing to building a modern, efficient, and environmentally friendly poultry production chain in Vietnam."
Mr. Dang Van Thanh - Chairman of TTC Group shared
From a strategic perspective, Mr. Dang Van Thanh, Chairman of TTC Group, commented: The signing of the agreement between Hung Nhon Group, De Heus, Bel Ga, and TTC Energy is a very smart decision, enhancing their market position and capabilities.
He believes that each party will leverage their strengths and mutually support each other to achieve sustainable long-term development, bringing the most practical benefits to the economy and society.
Mr. Nguyen Hong Thanh - Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, Permanent Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Tay Ninh province, delivered a congratulatory speech.
At the event, Mr. Nguyen Hong Thanh, Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Permanent Vice Chairman of the Tay Ninh Provincial People's Committee, extended his congratulations and acknowledged the efforts of the participating units. He highly appreciated the positive contributions that Hung Nhon, De Heus, Bel Ga, and TTC have made to the socio-economic development of the province in recent years. The province will create favorable conditions for the parties to develop in the most convenient way, working together with the province to realize the Tay Ninh provincial planning until 2030, with a vision to 2050.
The cooperation between leading enterprises in each field is expected to create a closed value chain, optimize operational efficiency, and lay the foundation for the long-term sustainable development of Vietnam's agricultural sector.
