The construction site is bustling with sunshine.

QTO - In June, the sun in Quang Tri blazes down like fire. On key construction sites, the sounds of machinery reverberate, along with the urgent work atmosphere of officials and engineers. They brave the heat and overcome their own limitations to ensure the projects are completed on schedule.

Engineer Le Van Thien, from the Safety Engineering Department of the Power Project Management Board 2, who is supervising the construction site of the Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant project, was surprised by the unique "Lao wind and white sand" of Quang Tri .

He shared: “I worked for 10 years on thermal power projects in Thai Binh, but mainly in the central control room. I was transferred to the Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant project at my own request, and now I work on the construction site.”

Despite the scorching heat, engineers and workers like engineer Le Van Thien are working day and night, taking turns at the construction site. The Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant project is expected to begin commercial operation of unit 1 in July and unit 2 in October 2026.

Racing against time, the Power Project Management Board 2 has urged contractors to mobilize all resources to ensure the Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant project commences commercial operation on schedule.

Mr. Dao Ngoc Long, Deputy Director of the Power Project Management Board 2 and Director of the Quang Trach Power Center Project Management Board, said: “The project is in its peak phase. Although we completed the synchronous grid connection of Unit 1 on April 12th and the first coal firing of Unit 1 on May 6th, 2026, we are always ready to start commercial power generation according to schedule. To date, the Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant project has achieved 23 million safe working hours. In addition to the Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant with a total installed capacity of 1,403MW, the Quang Trach II LNG Thermal Power Plant project and the Quang Trach III LNG Thermal Power Plant project will be implemented in the near future.”
