To date, the plant’s accumulated electricity output has reached nearly 230 billion of kWh. Annually, the company contributes 1.2-1.4 trillion VND to the budget of Hoa Binh province, and 300-450 billion VND in natural resources tax to Son La province. It pays more than 200 billion VND in forest environment service fees to six provinces in the upstream Da River per year, while engaging in regulating floods effectively, ensuring safety for lower areas and minimizing damage caused by downpours and floods.

Since the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant was put into use, no flooding has been recorded in the northern delta region, with sufficient water for agricultural production during the dry season. In 2017, the plant was officially recognised as an important work related to national security.

On the occasion, the Prime Minister presented a certificate of merit to the Hoa Binh Hydropower Company for its outstanding achievements recorded over the past years. In addition, two units and four individuals of the company received certificates of merit by the Ministry of Industry and Trade./.
