Vietnam: LOC Group has won a contract to provide support to the Phase 1 development of the Dong Hai 1 Wind Power Plant with the capacity of 50MW.

Key aspects of the power plant project involve the construction of a new 22 / 110 kV transformer station, a switchboard station, consisting of 6 outgoing feeders, the formation of a 4.1 km 110 kV transmission line, connecting the 13 wind turbines, and the creation of circuits to connect the wind turbines to the Dong Hai 1 power station.

The contract is awarded by EPC contractor BAC Phuong Joint Stock Company, based in Hanoi, Vietnam.

LOC will provide Marine Warranty Services (MWS) to support the development of the plant. The scope of the services will be for loadout, transportation, and installation of 13 units of Vestas V 150 – 4.0 series wind turbine generators, the inter-turbine MV cables, and link bridge sections.

The Dong Hai 1 Wind Power Plant Phase 1 will enable power to be added to the national electricity system, to provide electricity to the Bac Lieu province and the southwest region of Vietnam.

The project will be run from the company’s Singapore office, with support from other LOC offices and group companies, including Longitude and Innosea.  It also represents LOC Renewables’ growing presence and expertise in the South-East Asian market, expanding further afield from its offices, including Taiwan where the company has recently established a new presence.

“Winning this contract represents a further project to support the growth of the renewables industry in Vietnam. We are delighted to have won the contract and are looking forward to working with BAC Phuong Joint Stock Company. Winning this contract reflects the company’s proven experience in this area and of its growing presence in the South-East Asian renewables industry,” said Donny Ng, Project and BD Director, at LOC Singapore.
