The project, from Quang Trach in the central province of Quang Binh to Pho Noi in the northern province of Hung Yen, has a transmission capacity of up to 2,400MW. It holds special importance to improving the transmission capacity of the national power system, ensuring proactivity and flexibility in network operations, balancing power supply among regions, and guaranteeing national energy security, thereby contributing to the sufficient and stable power supply for economic activities and people’s life.
There remains only a small part of the main workload, but much still needs to be done to complete and put the entire project into operation before September 2. As this is the final stage of the project, all-level authorities, sectors, units, and individuals need to exert stronger efforts, take more drastic actions, clarify responsibilities of each person, set concrete deadlines, and boost examination and supervision to accelerate and finish the project on schedule, the PM said.
The Government leader also gave detailed instructions to relevant sides, including the Vietnam Electricity (EVN) group, the National Power Transmission Corporation (EVNNPT), ministries, and the nine provinces traversed by the lines.
PM Chinh requested the inauguration ceremony be organised before September 2 in all the nine provinces as a celebration of the 79th anniversary of the August Revolution and the National Day (September 2).
Work started on the lines in October 2023. The project is about 519km long and invested with some 22.35 trillion VND (nearly 895 million USD) in total.
It consists of four sub-projects, namely Quang Trach – Quynh Luu (Nghe An province), Quynh Luu – Thanh Hoa (Thanh Hoa province), Thanh Hoa – Nam Dinh 1 thermal power plant (Nam Dinh province), and Nam Dinh 1 thermal power plant – Pho Noi.
So far, several stretches of this project have become operational.
