Following the direction of the Prime Minister , EVN has regularly directed and supervised the project implementation by the investor (National Power Transmission Corporation) and the contractors.
Every week, EVN leaders hold meetings with the project owner to review and expedite the project's progress. During the recent Lunar New Year holiday, from the 1st to the 3rd day, EVN leaders inspected the production of materials and equipment for the project and the construction progress of the contractors on the site.
In addition to working with the authorities of the 9 provinces through which the project passes to resolve difficulties and obstacles related to the project, EVN has also promptly reported to ministries, agencies, the Government , and the Prime Minister any obstacles beyond its authority for resolution.

At the meeting with EVN leaders, the contractors reported on the progress of the contract packages and committed to making maximum efforts and focusing resources to complete the work items according to the schedule required by the investor.
Following the Prime Minister's directive that the entire line must be energized by June 2024, the Chairman of the EVN Board of Directors requested that contractors prioritize and allocate all resources to the project, increasing manpower and equipment to urgently deploy immediately in the areas where land has been handed over.
Consulting and design firms need to further enhance their roles and accelerate the progress of work items.
Regarding contractors supplying materials and equipment such as steel poles, wires, insulators, accessories, and fiber optic cables, Mr. Dang Hoang An also requested that they accelerate production progress, ensuring quality and timely delivery as committed.
“Contractors need to work together with even greater determination to complete the project in accordance with the Prime Minister's directives. EVN, the National Power Transmission Corporation, and the leaders of EVN's specialized departments will continue to closely monitor the progress of contractors, promptly resolve any difficulties and obstacles that arise, and take immediate action against contractors at risk of falling behind schedule,” Mr. An suggested.
