Phu My 3 Company Limited celebrated its 10th anniversary of Vietnam operations last week during which the government granted the firm a Second Class Labour Order.

Over the past ten years Phu My 3, Vietnam’s first build-operate-transfer (BOT) power project, has made significant contributions to the development of the energy industry and the national economy. With a 716.8 megawatt capacity, Phu My 3 contributes around 4 per cent of total national power output.

Over the last decade the company has generated 47.22 billion kWh for the country’s power grid. “We are honoured to receive this medal from the president on the occasion of our 10th anniversary. This marks an important milestone in the course of our operations and development in Vietnam,” said Do Ba Canh, the company’s general director.

“The company will continue to work harder and contribute further to the country’s development to be worthy of this achievement,” Canh affirmed.

He also said that to meet Vietnam’s increasing power demand, the Phu My 3 power plant consistently looks for ways to maintain maximum output to accelerate the growth of gas power in the country. Also on the occasion, the company presented Ba Ria-Vung Tau province with a mobile medical clinic valued at VND4.5 billion ($214,000) to service people in remote areas. Phu My 3 regularly contributes to charity and community activities.

The company, in coordination with a number of government agencies, has successfully implemented a number of community development projects in the area, such as sponsoring heart and eye surgeries for the poor, awarding scholarships, building gratitude houses and contributing to road safety projects.
