‘Sunflower branch’ generates clean electricity at Saigon Riverside Park

A solar power system resembling a sunflower branch has been set up in a park along the Saigon River in Ho Chi Minh City, supplying clean energy for the daily operations of the public space. The innovative clean energy system, a creation of the New Energy Ho Chi Minh Club (NEH), was officially transferred by its inventor to the administration of Thu Duc City in Ho Chi Minh City on Tuesday. With an installed capacity of 2 kWp, the solar power system can generate 2.9 MWh per year.
