Trung Nam Group launches 450 MW solar and transmission project
Trung Nam Group has inaugurated its 500KV transformer station and 220/500KV gridline and the 450 MW Trung Nam Thuan Nam solar power plant in Phuoc Minh commune, Thuan Nam district of the south-central Ninh Thuan Province of Vietnam.
Covering an area of 557.09 hectares including a 17 km power transmission line from Phuoc Minh commune in Thuan Nam district to Vinh Tan commune of Tuy Phong district of Ninh Thuan Province, Trungnam Group had fixed the construction schedule from May of 2020 to the fourth quarter of 2020.
The 500kV and 220/500kV power line project in combined with the 450 MW Trung Nam Thuan Nam solar power plant generates more than 1 billion kWh -- an equal of 1GWh power from renewable energy (the first year will be 1.2 billion kWh), and contribute to ease overloaded power network in Ninh Thuan province via South-central coastal region. Two transformer stations of the project, with a total designed capacity of 1,800MVA, combined with a power line network will help improve the operation of the national grid system in the Southcentral region.
The completion and operation of 500kV transformer and 220/500kV power transmission system in combination with 450 MW Trung Nam Thuan Nam solar power plant was seen as a historical milestone of the Vietnam energy industry in the context of private sector investment in the power transmission system that earned improvement from local to central governments.
