A delegation of the Northern Power Corporation (NPC) led by its General Director Nguyen Duc Thien had a meeting with the Party Committee of Hoa Binh province on August 6 to discuss measures to remove difficulties in implementing power projects in the province.
The meeting saw the participation of Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member
of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee;
Quach Tat Liem, Vice Chairman of the provincial People's Committee; leaders of
local departments and agencies; standing members of Party Committees of
districts and Hoa Binh city; and representatives from Hoa Binh Power Company.
Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary
of the provincial Party Committee, speaks at the meeting.
Currently, the NPC is implementing eight 110kV
projects in Hoa Binh province, including four new line transmission projects,
three new transformer station ones and another on a transmission line from the
Yen Thuy 220kV transformer station.
All the projects are expected to complete by
between the end of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. Once completed, the
projects will help meet the electricity demand of cement factories, avoid
overload and ensure power supply for local socio-economic development.
In the 2021-2030 period, the province plans to
add eight industrial parks, bringing the total area of industrial parks to
3,569 ha. In the 2024-2025 period, the province’s total
registered capacity is 252.6MW; commercial electricity output by 2025 is
expected to be about 1.639 billion kWh, with average growth of 10.20% per year.
However, power projects in the province are
facing difficulties and obstacles relating to investment procedures, site
clearance, planning and prices.
The NPC proposed that the Hoa Binh provincial
People’s Committee will direct the People's Committees of districts and Hoa
Binh city to hand over land for power projects in advance and coordinate with
the Hoa Binh Power Company to compenstate households who have to relocate for
power works.
The NPC General Director agreed on the solutions
and orientations that delegates raised and discussed at the meeting. He hoped that in the coming time, Hoa Binh
province and the NPC will strengthen coordination in implementing the projects
and removing difficulties. He suggested assigning the Hoa Binh Power
Company with task of taking responbility for organsing the implementation of
the projects, and providing updated information for relevant parties. The Secretary of the provincial Party Committee
thanked the NPC for investing in power infrastructure and ensuring power supply
for the province’s production, businsess and people’s dailylife activities.
In the coming time, the province will promote
attracting investment from large enterprises to develop high-tech industry,
service tourism, clean agriculture, so its demand for electricity is very
large, Long noted, calling for further coordination with the power sector for
socio-economic development.
He asked the NPC to strengthen coordination with
the provincial departments and agencies to review planning, remove
difficulties, and direct activities of the Hoa Binh Power Company's activities. He also asked departments, agencies, People's
Committees of districts and Hoa Binh city to speed up the process of approving
investment proposals for power projects, completing site clearance
and improve the power supply system in the province.
Local people across Hoa Binh province enjoyed the festive spirit of the 2025 Lunar New Year (Tet) with joy, cultural traditions, and heartfelt family gatherings.
During this Lunar New Year (Tet), residents of Vay Nua commune, Da Bac district are joyfully celebrating the arrival of spring with various festive activities. Along the main road of the commune, a newly installed solar-powered streetlight system stands out, completed just before Tet. Funded by Agribank Hoa Binh with a total investment of approximately 80 million VND (over 3,100 USD), the project has already proven beneficial. Not only does it enhance the rural landscape, but it also improves road safety and security, adding to the New Year’s cheer for the people of Vay Nua.
Nestled in Tan Lac district, Van Son commune boasts a breathtaking landscape reminiscent of a serene, poetic painting. Winding roads gracefully embrace the hillsides, enhancing the commune’s natural charm. As spring spreads its vibrant colours, the lives of local people continue to improve day by day.
The trade union of Hoa Binh province’s industrial parks has presented meaningful gifts to workers with difficulties, ensuring that they will have a warm Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday.
According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development's report, in 2024, the appropriate authorities regularly propagated and disseminated forest protection management, forest development, and forest fire prevention and fighting.
