Northern Vietnam Electricity Industry Technology Festival

Techshow EVNNPC 2026 is a space to showcase technical solutions, innovations, and technological applications directly stemming from the practical production and business operations of the Northern Vietnam electricity sector.

The Northern Power Corporation (EVNNPC) is organizing a series of events of special significance for the power industry: the EVNNPC 2026 Science and Technology Exhibition – Techshow EVNNPC 2026, linked with the Conference summarizing production and business activities in 2025 and implementing tasks for 2026.

The event took place over two days, January 12-13, 2026, in Hai Phong City, with the participation of representatives from central ministries and agencies, leaders of the Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN), and leaders of electricity units in the Northern region - an area playing a particularly important role in ensuring national energy security and economic growth.

The selection of science and technology, innovation, and digital transformation as the overarching theme for the series of activities launching in 2026 signifies a summary of 2025's efforts in monitoring unmanned substations, improving occupational safety, optimizing dispatching operations, and training human resources.

Mr. Nguyen Dang Hien – Head of Technical Department, Secretary of the Youth Union of the Northern Power Testing Company (NPCETC) shared: “Every initiative starts from a very simple question: how to make the work safer, faster, and more accurate. When displayed at Techshow, it is a source of personal pride, the result of a whole process of creative work.”

This "on-the-job" approach makes EVNNPC Techshow not just a showcase, but also a forum for sharing knowledge and promoting the replication of effective solutions throughout the entire corporation.

Science and technology, depth of management

In recent years, EVNNPC has implemented a comprehensive range of industrial park development, innovation, and digital transformation programs across all sectors: engineering and operation, business and customer service, internal management, and human resource training.

In the engineering field, the application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), remote monitoring systems, and big data analytics has significantly shortened power grid inspection time, reduced the number of power outages for technical work, and, most importantly, minimized risks for workers.

Alongside this, business operations and customer service continue to innovate towards digitalization and transparency. The rate of cashless payments by customers reached 99.23%. By the end of 2025, EVNNPC recorded 1,595 customers developing rooftop solar power for self-production and self-consumption with a total capacity of approximately 329.6 MW; at the same time, 74 customers have announced they are installing, with an expected additional capacity of about 114.9 MW.

From a technical efficiency perspective, EVNNPC controls power loss and power supply reliability as a "measure" of operational capacity. Power loss in 2025 is projected at 3.54% (of which 110kV: 0.95% | medium voltage: 1.73% | low voltage: 4.02%). All reliability indicators meet EVN's targets: MAIFI 2.04 times; SAIDI 282 minutes; SAIFI 2.65 times, reflecting the system's operational capacity, power restoration, and post-disaster response.

Alongside digital transformation, EVNNPC is promoting science, technology, and innovation in a substantive way: by 2025, there will be 8 initiatives recognized at the EVN level, 2 EVN-level projects assigned (1 project completed), and 90 initiatives at the Corporation level.

Affirming the role of state-owned enterprises in realizing major policies.

From a socio-political perspective, EVNNPC's placement of science, technology, and innovation at the center of its development strategy clearly reflects the role of state-owned enterprises in concretizing the major policies and guidelines of the Party and the State.

Resolution 57 of the Politburo on the development of science, technology, and innovation clearly states that enterprises, especially state-owned enterprises, must become important subjects of innovation, applying technology to solve practical problems of the economy.

In the context of the power industry having to both ensure energy security and face pressure to improve production and business efficiency, EVNNPC's organization of the Techshow in conjunction with the Annual Review Conference is seen as a vivid example of how a large infrastructure enterprise transforms policy into concrete action.

An energy expert commented: "A noteworthy point about EVNNPC is that technological innovation is inseparable from its political mission and business operations. The Techshow shows that science and technology are being placed in the right position, serving as tools for sustainable development."

New Year's greetings with a spirit of renewal.

Organizing the EVNNPC Techshow 2026 at the beginning of the year is not only a professional activity, but also carries symbolic significance, a New Year's greeting from the Northern power industry with a spirit of innovation and creativity.

With 2026 identified as a pivotal year for implementing many important tasks of the new development phase, the series of events in Hai Phong is expected to create a strong competitive spirit throughout the Corporation, spreading the spirit of proactive innovation to each unit and each employee.

According to EVNNPC leaders, the EVNNPC Techshow 2026 not only reflects an event but also shows how the Northern power sector chooses its development path: taking science and technology as the foundation, putting people at the center, and using efficiency in serving economic and social development as the measure. This is also the consistent message sent from Hai Phong, a dynamic industrial city, in the early days of 2026: The Northern power sector enters the new year with a proactive, innovative stance and is ready for higher development demands.
