  Frequently Asked Questions

We are ready to support you

BESS helps reduce electricity costs, maintain power stability and continuity, protecting machinery and equipment.

Typical customers of GG Industries can save up to ~10% of annual electricity expenses, with a payback period of 2 to 5 years, depending on the specific project scale and operating conditions.

The BESS charges during off-peak and normal-rate hours and discharges during peak hours, when electricity prices are 1.8 to 2.8 times higher.

Thanks to this mechanism, BESS has been widely adopted in developed countries to stabilize the power grid and optimize energy costs for industrial and commercial facilities, ensuring both economic efficiency and operational reliability.

BESS technology has been continuously improved and now meets most global safety standards such as IEC (Europe) and UL (USA).

BESS uses Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery cells, which offer high thermal stability and fire resistance, ensuring superior safety. According to global data, over 360 GWh of BESS capacity has been installed in developed countries, with an extremely low incident rate, confirming its reliability and safety in practical operation.

 

According to GG Industries’ warranty policy, the battery modules are covered for 5 years, while other components are warranted for 2 years.

The average annual degradation rate is around 3%, and the BESS can operate effectively for 12 to 20 years, depending on the number of charge and discharge cycles and the specific application conditions.

Currently, there are no specific fire safety (PCCC) or electrical utility regulations issued in Vietnam for BESS installations. However, GG Industries’ systems are designed in full compliance with IEC international safety standards, which are being referenced by local authorities for future regulation. BESS installation does not require formal approval from the local power utility (EVN), but it is recommended to submit a written notification to EVN regarding the integration of a BESS unit into the facility’s electrical system

There are two leasing models available.

  1. Rent-to-Own: Short-term leasing (1–3 months) allows customers to test performance and KPIs before deciding to purchase the system.

  2. Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS): Long-term leasing throughout the entire product lifecycle, where benefits and costs are shared based on the specific characteristics of each project (typically ≥30%).

These flexible financial models help businesses optimize investment efficiency, reduce upfront costs, and access GGI’s advanced BESS technology with minimal capital commitment.

 

GGI partners with banks and financial institutions to support customers with financing options.
Several banks are currently evaluating the BESS model to recognize BESS systems as eligible collateral. At present, customers can use other assets as collateral to secure financing for their BESS projects, with loan-to-value ratios of up to 70%.
This collaboration helps clients reduce upfront investment pressure while enabling them to access advanced, sustainable energy storage solutions efficiently and flexibly.

The Energy Management System (EMS) serves as the central intelligence of the BESS solution.
In addition to system control and optimization, the EMS enables users to monitor key performance indicators, energy savings, and fault alerts through a dedicated mobile application on Android and iOS. This allows real-time visibility and smart management of the entire energy storage system, ensuring efficient and reliable operation.

The appropriate battery capacity is calculated based on peak-hour energy consumption and the operating schedule of each business.

Customers should provide: (1) the electricity bill/statement from EVN or the local distributor, (2) an hourly load profile for about one representative week, and (3) a single-line electrical diagram.

The maintenance procedure is divided into two levels:

  • Regular maintenance (monthly or quarterly) and

  • Comprehensive maintenance (annually).

Each maintenance session takes 1–4 hours, depending on the system size, and can be scheduled outside peak hours or on non-working days to avoid disrupting production operations.

GGI is headquartered in Industrial Park No.5, Ân Thi, and operates a fully integrated value chain — from market research, R&D, production, and brand development to sales and after-sales service.
The company is also committed to product lifecycle responsibility, including collection and recycling of BESS units after end-of-life, ensuring environmental compliance and sustainable operations.

GGI is a Vietnamese company founded by three pioneers with extensive experience in the battery and energy storage industry.
The company is also funded by an investor based in Dubai, enabling GGI to strengthen its technological capabilities, expand production capacity, and accelerate the development of high-quality BESS solutions for both domestic and international markets.

Yes, because GG Industries is committed to delivering a comprehensive solution and turnkey service package to its customers.
This approach ensures that clients receive end-to-end support — from system design, installation, and commissioning to operation, maintenance, and long-term service — providing convenience, reliability, and optimal performance throughout the entire project lifecycle.

The warranty policy covers up to 5 years for battery modules and 2 years for other BESS components for  GGI C&I BESS. With GGI BESS residential, the warranty policy covers up to 10 year.
GG Industries also offers extended warranty packages tailored to each product line and customer’s specific requirements, ensuring long-term system reliability and optimized maintenance support throughout the lifespan of the solution.

Each BESS is equipped with a remote management and diagnostic system that can detect and alert faults in real time.
In cases requiring on-site intervention, GG Industries dispatches technical engineers within 4 to 12 hours, ensuring timely troubleshooting, minimal downtime, and continuous, reliable system operation.
