(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outdated, while the local level of automation remains low.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
During the two days of November 14th – 15th, at the Provincial Cultural Palace, the Department of Industry and Trade organized a conference to connect the product consumption of the ethnic minorities and the mountainous areas in 2024. There was the attendance of the representatives of leaders of a number of departments, branches, businesses, manufacturers and distributors inside and outside the province.
The One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme is reshaping the rural economy of Lac Son district, helping improve living standards, particularly among the ethnic minority communities in remote areas of Lac Son district.
The Van Mai dam xanh (Bangana lemassoni) fish has long been famous for its unique and delicious flavour, earning a spot on the menus of many restaurants and attracting food connoisseurs. In recent years, residents in Van Mai commune, Mai Chau district, have expanded their fish farming areas and striven to build a strong reputation for their product. They are also working to establish it as an OCOP (One Commune, One Product) item to increase their income.
Outstanding rural industrial products of Hoa Binh province in 2024 were recently honoured and granted certificates, becoming a source of pride for producers and also a boost for local economic development. The honourees are all deeply imbued with the local cultural identity and boast considerable commercial potential, helping popularise the image of Hoa Binh to domestic and international consumers. This is also a solid stepping stone for rural industrial establishments to develop.
In the first 10 months of 2024, Hoa Binh city made significant progress in job creation and labour exports, sending 112 workers abroad through partnerships with authorised recruitment firms.
An award ceremony to announce the official certification for Mai Chau district’s Bangana lemassoni fish, a specialty of the locality because of its unique flavour, was held recently in the district.
