Electricity industry is a specific economic sector in Hoa Binh. It is prone natural disasters. The disaster
prevention, search and rescue work is
considered as a key task of the Hoa Binh Power Company.
The firm has rolled out a disaster response scheme at
an early date, which was approved by the Northern Power Corporation. On the basis of the scheme, the firm’s branches were
assigned to swiftly solve incidents, thus ensuring safe power re-supply to
local residents.
The company has planned for the disaster
prevention, search and rescue work and assigned
its branches with specific works. It has also prepared backup equipment in
areas that enable replacement. For large-sized equipment, the company signed contracts
of equipment supply with capable units.
The power supply modes were also detailed,
including the basic and circular power supply ones, to ensure no power
interruption on the large scale.
Units have set up task force for
overcoming disaster consequences. Scenarios and plans to respond to natural disasters
are very close to the reality.
The Hoa Binh Power Company has actively inspected and reinforced infrastructure
facilities after disasters, helping minimize the damage.
Thanks to the careful preparations, the firm effectively overcame consequences caused
by floods for the electricity industry in 2017, especially for infrastructure
systems and power work.
Additionally, the company has also focused on implementing plans for setting up resettlement areas in areas vulnerable to natural
disasters. The firm has coordinated
with other localities’ authorities to build disaster prevention
schemes and detailed electricity supply plans so as to be able to supply
electricity as soon as possible after incidents./.
Once a mountainous province facing many challenges, Hoa Binh has, after more than a decade of implementing the national target programme on new-style rural area development, emerged as a bright spot in Vietnam’s northern midland and mountainous region. In the first quarter of 2025, the province recorded positive results, paving the way for Hoa Binh to enter a phase of accelerated growth with a proactive and confident mindset.
Hoa Binh province is steadily advancing its agricultural sector through the adoption of high-tech solutions, seen as a sustainable path for long-term development.

A delegation of Hoa Binh province has attended the "Meet Korea 2025" event, recently held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Vietnam, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the People's Committee of Hung Yen province.
Hoa Binh province joined Vietnam’s national "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) programme in 2019, not simply as a mountainous region following central policy, but with a clear vision to revive the cultural and agricultural values in its villages and crops.
From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
