EVNNPT prepares plans to implement 500kV projects

Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha approved the policy for the Nam Dinh I-Thanh Hoa thermal power plant's 500kV line on October 23, with the National Power Transmission Corporation (EVNNPT) assigned as the investor.

This project is one of four components for the 500kV Circuit 3 line, which combines Quang Trach-Quynh Luu, Quynh Luu-Thanh Hoa, Nam Dinh 1-Thanh Hoa, and Nam Dinh 1-Pho Noi.

According to Vu Tran Nguyen, deputy general director of EVNNPT, the 500kV line for Circuit 3 plays a vital role, so it needs to be implemented promptly and put into operation as soon as possible to contribute to ensuring power supply for the North.

“The approval is an important legal procedure, which now forms the basis for EVNNPT to implement the next steps. This positive result comes thanks to Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, the Ministry of Planning and Investment, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Committee for the Management of State Capital at Enterprises, and the localities accelerating the procedures for the project,” Nguyen said.

Currently, the locations where the Circuit 3 500kV line passes through are closely coordinating with ministries and central agencies to complete additional procedures and clarify dossiers on policies to change land use rights for forest areas, ensuring the compatibility of projects with local planning.

Along with that, EVNNPT is completing documents to ensure the approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIA) as soon as the Prime Minister green-lights the investment policy. Feasibility study reports will be completed and submitted to the authorities for appraisal immediately after the investment policy and EIA are approved.

"After the prime minister approves the investment planning for the 500kV line project for the Nam Dinh I-Pho Noi thermal power plant, EVNNPT will immediately implement the project to ensure its goals are met. In addition, we will continue to coordinate with ministries and branches to complete legal procedures to implement the remaining three projects according to the prime minister's directions," Nguyen said.

EVNNPT has arranged the simultaneous implementation of the project’s work and allocated adequate capital. It has coordinated closely with localities on site clearance work, and is gathering human resources, machinery, and materials to start construction immediately, contributing to ensuring the electricity supply for the North into the future.
