(HBO) – The Hoa Binh Power Company (PC Hoa Binh) under the Electricity of Vietnam has for years been striving to improve its supply quality through the application of a series of measures to lower power outage duration and meet customers’ demand.
PC Hoa Binh steps up application of line insulator
washing, an important measure to improve the reliability of power supply.
Nguyen The Hung, vice director of the company, said it has
taken many measures to improve its supply reliability.
They include completing a safe and flexible grid structure,
developing a year-long plan for cutting off electricity, building a reasonable
operating method, and reducing the duration of power outage for maintenance;
and applying line insulator washing.
In addition, the company has also employed heat cameras and
drones; boosted human resources training; and launched communications
activities to raise public awareness on power safety.
As a result, PC Hoa Binh’s System Average Interruption Duration
Index (SAIDI) was lowered from 2,762.9 in 2020 to 1,634.5 in 2021, and its
System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI), from 26.3 to 16.14 in the
period.
Hung also pointed to a number of shortcomings found in the
company’s operations. As Hoa Binh is a mountainous province, the power grid in
some local areas runs on difficult terrain with unfavourable traffic. When an
incident occurs there, it might take a long time to check and handle.
Meanwhile, many electricity technologies applied in Hoa Binh have been
outdated, while the local level of automation remains low.
The
vice director said his company plans to build an action plan and a mechanism
for grid operation for 2023 t
After more than four years of implementing a project launched by the Hoa Binh Party Committee’s Standing Board on developing agriculture and promoting product consumption linked with building new-style rural areas for the 2021-2025 period, the province’s industry and trade sector has made significant strides, greatly contributing to local socio-economic development.
Luong Son district has identified 2025 as the year for the accelerated breakthrough to successfully implement the socio-economic development plan for the 5-year period from 2021 to 2025. The district has been focusing on executing the plans and trying to achieve a GRDP growth rate of approximately 15%.
Since the beginning of this year, under the direction of the Department of Agriculture and Environment, the Sub-Department of Agricultural, Forestry, and Fishery Product Quality Management has strengthened the integration of the professional activities to promote and guide the organizations and individuals in the production and trading of agricultural, forestry, and fishery products to comply with the legal regulations regarding the use of chemicals, pesticides and veterinary medicines in crop cultivation, livestock farming and aquaculture. They also provide guidance to processing and manufacturing establishments on keeping the records to trace the product origins and using food additives from the approved list according to the regulations.

Ha Thi Ha Chi, a 26-year-old graduate in law, has taken an unconventional path by returning to her hometown in Mai Chau district to establish the Tong Dau Cooperative, creating stable jobs for local women and bringing Thai ethnic brocade weaving to the global market.
As the Lunar New Year 2025 approached, pork prices surged, creating a profitable season for farmers in Tan Vinh commune, Luong Son district.
