At 4:20 p.m. on November 14, Unit 2 (H10) of the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant Expansion Project was officially successfully connected to the national power grid.

Unit 2 of the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant Expansion Plant has officially connected to the grid successfully.

Previously, at 11:12 a.m. on the same day, transformer AT2 (T10) and GIS 500kV distribution station (within the scope of Unit 2) were also successfully energized.

The Hoa Binh Hydropower Expansion Project (total capacity 480MW) is invested by Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN), with Power Project Management Board 1 as the investor representative.

In order to ensure the progress of project completion and inauguration, Power Project Management Board 1 has focused on directing contractors to supply, install equipment, and conduct calibration testing to complete the installation, testing, and grid connection testing of Unit 2 (H10) such as: successfully installing the rotor on October 7; energizing the AT2 transformer (T10) and completing the testing and calibration work.

Previously, Unit 1 of the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant Expansion Project successfully generated electricity and connected to the national power grid on August 19, on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of National Day, in accordance with the direction of the Prime Minister .

Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant Expansion Project.

The Hoa Binh Hydropower Expansion Project is located on the right bank of the existing Hoa Binh Hydropower Dam. The plant is located in Hoa Binh Ward; the water intake and the access channel are in Thong Nhat Ward, Phu Tho Province. The plant shares the reservoir, dam, and spillway with the current Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant. The new construction includes: the access channel to the water intake, the water intake, the water tunnel, and the plant.

After being officially put into operation, the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant Expansion Project will contribute to: increasing the peak power generation capacity for the national power system; maximizing the annual excess water discharge during the flood season of the existing Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant for power generation; improving the frequency regulation capacity, stabilizing the power system frequency; reducing system operating costs; and at the same time reducing the working intensity of existing generators, thereby extending equipment life and saving maintenance and repair costs.
