Completing and energizing the 500 kV Doc Soi-Pleiku2 line (belonging to the 500 kV circuit 3 line project) is a great effort of EVN and EVNNPT in the face of complicated developments of the COVID-19 pandemic. Photo: VGP

EVN said that from the beginning of the year until now , despite facing many difficulties due to the COVID-19 epidemic affecting the settlement of investment, construction, site clearance, transportation of materials and equipment, human Although this unit has made great efforts in construction of electrical works, this unit has made great efforts to successfully complete construction investment in the first 6 months of 2021.

For power source projects, EVN and the French Development Agency (AFD) signed a Credit Agreement for a preferential loan without government guarantee worth 74.7 million euros (equivalent to 1,900 billion VND, accounting for 30). .8% of the total project investment capital) for the Ialy Hydropower Plant expansion project; signed contract for package 15 (EPC-QTI) worth about VND 30,236 billion and signed a credit contract to borrow capital for Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant project.

For power grid projects, by the end of June 2021, the whole Group has started 64 works; completed energizing 64 power grid projects such as 500 kV My Tho - Duc Hoa transmission line, 220 kV Pha Lai transmission line branching off Hai Duong, energizing 2 220 kV Thanh Nghi substations, energizing and renovating 110 lines kV Hoc Mon-Ba Queo (Binh Tan-Ba Queo section), energizing 220 kV Lao Bao substation and energizing 500 kV Doc Soi-Pleiku 2 line (belonging to the 500 kV line project of circuit 3).

EVN said that from now until the end of the year, it will continue to urge units to overcome difficulties in construction due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, ensuring the progress of important power source and grid projects. In which, striving to complete the power generation of the expanded Da Nhim hydropower project in August 2021; speeding up the construction progress of Hoa Binh hydropower projects expansion, Ialy expansion, Infrastructure project of Quang Trach Power Center.

At the same time, strive to ensure the plan of energizing the works: Connecting Hai Duong and Nghi Son 2 BOT thermal power plants; release of renewable energy (Quang Ngai-Quy Nhon 220kV transmission line (Quang Ngai-Phu My section), Nha Trang-Thap Cham 220kV transmission line, Cam Ranh 220kV substation and Dong Ha 220kV transmission line- Lao Bao); ensuring power supply for the 500 kV West Hanoi-Thuong Tin transmission line, the 500/220 kV Nho Quan-Phu Ly-Thuong Tin transmission line...

Along with that, key projects will be commenced such as 500 kV Van Phong substation, 500 kV Van Phong-Vinh Tan transmission line, increasing capacity of 500 kV Pleiku 2 substation, increasing capacity of 500 kV substation. kV Dak Nong, 220kV Tuong Duong substation, 220kV Nam Sum-Nong Cong transmission line and hydropower projects in the Northwest region... to contribute to strengthening the capacity of the national power system in the coming time.
