(HBO) – Over the past years, the Power Company of Hoa Binh province (PC Hoa Binh) has actively carried out many measures to develop a smart grid in efforts to optimise electricity consumption, reduce costs, and enhance the power system’s reliability and efficiency.

Deputy Director of the company Luong Van Phuong
said a smart grid is a system sending electricity from producers to consumers
able to independently monitor and distribute power to achieve maximum energy
efficiency. All facilities of the grid interact with one another to create a
smart power supply system thanks to the application of modern information and
communications technology. To consumers, the smart grid help monitor their
electricity use in different points of time, thus helping change consumption
behaviours and save money.
Given those advantages, PC Hoa Binh has taken
measures to develop a smart grid since 2018, which is also a move to carry out
the Government’s programme on smart grid development.
He noted that the company has worked to apply
science - technology to all activities, from electricity production to grid
management and operation. Softwares have been created for use in management,
e-invoices applied, old electricity meters replaced with electronic ones, and
related services provided online. Uniform measures have been implemented to
improve the reliability and quality of power supply.
In addition, PC Hoa Binh has invested resources
in developing the grid infrastructure and made use of scientific and
technological advances to modernise the grid operation. Notably, a remote
control centre was put into use in July 2018, helping detect and deal with
electricity incidents faster.
Thanks to the active application of new
technologies, the firm has achieved the set targets, thus ensuring the safety,
stability, and reliability of power supply for consumers. Those attainments
form a prerequisite for PC Hoa Binh to boost the smart grid development in the
years to come./.
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.
