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./.
