SkyX Solar Zero-Capex Rooftop Solar, DPPA and BESS

SkyX Solar is a rooftop solar developer headquartered at CII Tower in Ho Chi Minh City that focuses only on Vietnam. It is a member of EDF power solutions, with VinaCapital also listed as a shareholder, and its mission is to turn idle roofs in Vietnam into clean power for commercial and industrial clients.

The company invests in, designs, licenses, builds, owns and operates rooftop systems for the full contract term, so customers need zero capex and zero opex. It offers power purchase agreements including a direct power purchase (DPPA) scheme, battery energy storage, energy attribute certificates for 100% renewable electricity, and a centralised remote monitoring centre with a web and mobile asset management platform driven by an AI data engine. Clients include garment, food and seafood manufacturers.

• End-to-end delivery: investment, design, licensing, construction and operation of rooftop systems.
• Zero capex, zero opex: SkyX owns and operates the asset for the full contract term.
• PPA and DPPA: rooftop power purchase agreements and a direct power purchase scheme.
• Battery storage: BESS technology added to solar systems.
• Energy attribute certificates: EAC ownership for 100% renewable electricity claims.
• Remote monitoring: a central monitoring centre and web and mobile platform with an AI data engine.

Garment and footwear factories supplying global brands can host a SkyX system and use certificates to report renewable sourcing. Seafood and food processors with large cold storage roofs can cut daytime grid demand. Plants with evening shifts can add BESS to extend solar use.

Factories get rooftop solar with zero capex and zero opex, as SkyX owns and operates the system for the whole contract. The company handles all licences needed to build and operate. Energy attribute certificates let customers claim 100% renewable electricity. A remote monitoring centre and AI-based platform track system performance.

Vietnam's DPPA decree and the revised rooftop solar rules give factories new ways to buy renewable power. Garment and food exporters face carbon and renewable sourcing targets from global brands, which increases demand for third-party owned rooftop solar with certificates and storage.
