Vietnam: The Lao Bao 220 kV substation and Dong Ha-Lao Bao 220 kV power line projects were inaugurated on 16 October.
The substation and power line are ready to meet the transmission needs of wind power plants in the western part of Quang Tri province in preparation for commercial operation.
Quang Tri People’s Committee in collaboration with Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) and National Power Transmission Corporation (EVNNPT) organised the inauguration ceremony for Lao Bao 22 0kV substation and Dong Ha-Lao Bao 220 kV power line. These two projects have a total investment capital of $38.08 M (VND 876 B).
The investor of the substation is EVNNPT and Central Vietnam Power Projects Management Board (CPMB) is the manager and operator of the project. The substation, which is located in Tan Hop commune, Quang Tri province, includes building a new 220/110/22 kV substation with two 250 MVA transformers.
Tran Dinh Nhan, general director of EVN thanked Quang Tri People’s Committee and relevant authorities who created favourable conditions for the investors to implement the project on time, including administrative procedures, compensation, and communication for local people.
“The pandemic restricted the movements of engineers and workers involved in the construction of the project, and lead to a scarcity of materials and equipment with a serious impact on overall progress,” Nhan said.
With their extensive experience in project management, leaders of EVNNPT and CPMB, together with a team of qualified and enthusiastic staff, have overcome all problems to complete the project on schedule while ensuring quality.
