Second Power Transmission and Distribution Network Development Project
PROJECT OBJECTIVE

This project supports the reinforcement and construction of substations and transmission/distribution lines in Viet Nam to address overburdened infrastructure and lack of backup routes. It aims to ensure a stable power supply and support uninterrupted economic activity, especially for industrial operations.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In Viet Nam, in order to meet the increasing demand for electricity, priority has been given to the construction of new power transmission lines from power plants in conjunction with the construction of new power plants, and no progress has been made in reinforcing the existing power system. As a result, the load factor of power transmission, substation, and distribution equipment has increased, and as there has been a delay in establishing two circuit routes, there is no backup route, and power outages occur when accidents occur or when equipment is updated or maintained. Not only that, but economic activities such as the stable operation of factories are being hindered. This cooperation will support the construction and reinforcement of substations and power transmission and distribution lines. This will ensure a stable power supply and contribute to stabilizing economic activity.
