This special-grade energy project is led by EVNNPT as the investor, with SPMB managing the project, and the Transmission Corporation taking over operations, as reported by Baochinhphu.vn.
The 500kV transmission line (2 circuits) starts at the 500kV distribution yard pillar of the Nhon Trach 4 Power Plant and ends by connecting to the conductors between pillars 74 and 75 of the existing 500kV Phu My- Nha Be transmission line.
This transmission line is the sole connection enabling the evacuation of power from the Nhon Trach 4 Power Plant (with a capacity of over 800MW) to the National Power System. The operation of these thermal power plants will contribute to energy security and increase local budget revenues. The project’s completion will help ensure power supply in Southern provinces from 2025 onwards.
The Nhon Trach 3 and 4 Power Plants are invested by the Vietnam Oil and Gas Group with a total investment of $1.4 billion. Together, they offer a capacity of 1,624MW and can supply 9-12 billion kWh of electricity annually. This is Vietnam’s first thermal power project using liquefied natural gas (LNG) as fuel.
Previously, to ensure experimental power supply and evacuate power from the Nhon Trach 3 and 4 Power Plants, EVNNPT reported to the authorities for the approval of the 220kV connection line from Nhon Trach 3 Power Plant to Nhon Trach 1,2, and Bau Sen, which is part of the 220kV Nhon Trach 3 Power Plant – Long Thanh 500kV transformer station project. On May 15, 2024, the project was energized, ensuring reverse power supply and experimental grid connection for the Nhon Trach 3 Power Plant.
