An EVN representative stated that the Tri An Hydropower Expansion Project is a key initiative, with construction scheduled to begin in 2025. During its preparation, the company received significant attention and guidance from the Government and the Ministry of Industry and Trade, along with support and coordination from the People's Committee and various departments of Dong Nai province. This collaboration aimed to develop an effective plan for managing project progress and quality, ensuring the plant begins power generation and the entire facility is completed by Q4 2027.
The Tri An Hydropower Expansion Project has a total investment of 3,965 billion VND. Approximately 30% of this is owner's equity, with the remaining 70% sourced from commercial loans. Once operational, the plant will enhance power mobilization for the southern region's grid, especially during peak hours. Additionally, it will improve the national power system's operational efficiency by increasing hydropower generation and peak-shaving capacity, boosting operational flexibility, and enhancing reliability and safety. This will also help reduce production costs for the national power grid.
