Definition, Myths and
Dilemma of Auction based
Mechanisms

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 15


Different Understanding of Term “Auction”

The term “auction” is differently used in Vietnam and internationally:

1. Auction in the Vietnam context:


o “auction” refers to the procurement of goods and services financed by the
public budget (e.g. equipment auctioning or BOT projects), internationally
referred to as public procurement.

2. Auction for renewables in the international context:


o “auction” is understood as a publicly held bidding at which the
highest/lowest bidders wins (usually based on price!); it usually results in a
20 year PPA

Currently, there is no common understanding of the term “auction” in Vietnam ;


This can lead to misunderstanding among stakeholders

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 16


Auctions for RE versus auctions as part of wholesale
markets

1. Auctions in wholesale electricity markets:


o IPP will market a share of the produced electricity himself on the wholesale
market
o Bidding based on marginal costs of power plants (i.e. operation and
maintenance costs)
o Hourly products
o Price will enable IPPs to recover small share of total project costs (e.g. 10%
need to be sold in wholesale market, 90% via fixed prices)

2. Auctions for RE:


o Bidding based on total installed costs of power plants (including capital
costs,
o Fixed kilowatt-hour payment over 20 year lifetime
o Price has to enable IPPs to recover entire project costs (plus rate of return)

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 29


Background

Wind energy and targets in Vietnam

National Power Development Plan VII (Decision No. 428/QD-TTg, dated 18


March 2016) has required the total wind power capacity to be increased
from the current negligible levels (190 MW) to around 6.000 MW by 2030.
Vietnamese Government has been applying the FIT of 7.8 USct/kWh for
wind power since 2011.
Tariff level seems to be unprofitable to project developers and investors,
resulted in very limited deployment of wind power in Vietnam until now

Auction Design and
Potential Roles of Actors

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 37


Location neutral versus location specific auctions

Location neutral auctions are standard design (most countries)

Lower complexity for government


Higher risk for investors
Project developers need to calculate the following cost components and the
related risks
Cost for wind measurements
Land acquisition costs
Grid connection or grid upgrade costs
Cost related to administrative procedures
Equipment costs (including capital costs for finance)
Operation and Maintenance costs
Decommissioning costs

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 38


Location neutral versus location specific auctions

Location specific auctions can lower prices further


Government or local authorities will predefine and then preselect the land on which
projects will be developed
Higher complexity for government (pre-development)
Lower risk for investors
Project developers need to calculate the following cost components and the related risks
Cost for wind measurements
Land acquisition costs
Grid connection or grid upgrade costs
Cost related to administrative procedures
Equipment costs (including capital costs for finance)
Operation and Maintenance costs
Decommissioning costs

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 39


Location neutral versus location specific auctions

Advantages of Location Neutral Disadvantages of Location Neutral


Auctions Auctions

Fast deployment: Large number of project Higher risk for project developer (especially
developers in less mature markets)

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 40


Location neutral versus location specific auctions

Advantages of Location Specific Auctions Disadvantages of Location Specific


Auctions
Risk reduction for project developers Delayed deployment (preparation of site by
government entities usually takes longer than
preparation by private sector)

Lower auction results since costs are partially High burden for administration (staff and budget
covered during site-preparation process required to pre-develop sites)

Advantageous in case that land is already owned Already privately developed sites can no longer
by the State be used

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 50


Pre-Requisites for a Successful Shift to Auctions

Pre-Requisites for a Implications for Vietnam


Successful Shift to Auctions
A sufficiently large The wind market in Vietnam is still relatively small. Up to now, just slightly below 200 MW
national market size of capacity were installed under the FIT mechanism. Also, the average project size is
relatively small. A larger scale market in Vietnam would lead to more competition
and lower prices.

A high level of competition Due to several reasons, the wind power market in Vietnam is still dominated by a limited
number of actors. There is still limited interest from international investors, partially
because of the limited creditworthiness of EVN and the difficulty to make projects
bankable. A higher level of competition in Vietnam would lead to lower prices in
future auction rounds.

A mature market and In Vietnam, several wind project developers have stated that there are still no
policy framework standardised and streamlined processes when it comes to wind power development. It is
therefore highly recommended to streamline all administrative process (including
clear grid connection procedures) in Vietnam before the introduction of an auction-
based mechanism.

Clarity about long-term Vietnam has taken a first important step by defining wind energy deployment targets
market development until the year 2030. However, longer term targets up to 2050 would give an even
clearer sign to the international wind energy community and might also enable
Vietnam to harness socio-economic benefits

Roadmap for Wind Auction Implementation

The introduction of an auction regime for wind power projects in


Vietnam therefore appears only advised after an extension of the
operation period of the current FiT model to a horizon 2022/2023.

Transition Period Required

Hasty shift from one support mechanism to another can negatively


affect market development

The transition should reflect the time period required for project
development (avoid stranded costs for project developers that have
already started to develop a wind project )
during the transition period, the old FIT program will no longer be
available for “new” projects

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 64


Transition Period Required

Examples of transition periods: The UK and Germany

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 65


Roadmap for Wind Auction Implementation

Auction Mechanism Implementation


Steps Estimated implementing time
 First auction round – Call The call for tenders can start with a Request for Qualification
(RfQ) process (interested bidders need to prove that certain
for proposals financial or material qualifications are fulfilled). The RfQ
window is usually open for one month.
Next, a Request for Proposals (RfP) is issued by the
responsible government agency. Interested project developers
usually have six months to submit their proposals.
 First auction round – Bids need to be carefully assessed, checking pre-qualification
criteria, price and potential other selection criteria.
Selection of bids
This step takes 3 to 6 months.
 First auction round – The off-taker will sign Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) with
the wind project developers (standardized PPA ).
signing of PPAs
After signing the PPA the project developers can bring the
project to financial closure and start building the wind park.
Typically, an additional 3-4 years pass between singing of the
PPA and connecting the completed wind park to the grid.

Pricing Methodology
Pay-as-Bid:
bidders obtain their actual bidding price
Minimize costs
Take resource variations into account

Uniform pricing:
price of the last bid accepted that was set
out by the auction agency so as to reach
the targeted capacity – called the
‘’clearing price’’ – defined the price for all
winning bidders
Avoid “winner’s curse”

MoIT/GIZ Energy Support Programme 71


Core Auction Design Features

Auction format

Sealed Bid
Simple design – ceiling price?
Each bidder writes down a single bid which is not disclosed to other
bidders and the most competitive bidders win (“pay as bid”).

Descending Clock
Multi-round bid
Auctioner starts with a high price and then calls out successively lower
prices until quantity offered and quantity required match!

Core Auction Design Features

Penalties and bid bonds


Central elements to ensuring a successful bidding process are penalties to
avoid underbidding and underbuilding.
Bid bonds can be thought of as an upfront deposit that is required prior to
the bidding stage to assure and confirm a developers’ means to actually go
through with the project should it be awarded.
It is usually refunded when a developer does not receive the contract, or
once the contracts are signed.
