Envision Energy to supply turbines for 600 MW Onshore wind farm in Laos

Envision Group (Envision) has signed a Letter of intent (LOI) with Impact Energy Asia Development Limited (IEAD) for the supply of wind turbines to the 600 MW Monsoon Onshore Wind project in Laos.

The wind farm will be located in the Sekong and Attapeu provinces in Southern Lao PDR. Envision plans to supply 133 units of EN-171 wind turbines with a power rating of 4.51 MW. The Monsoon Wind Project will have the capacity to generate over 1,700 GWh of green energy each year. The project's electricity generation will be delivered from Lao PDR to Central Vietnam through the project's dedicated 500 kV transmission line. 

IEAD had signed a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement with Vietnam Electricity (EVN) in July 2021. The construction of the project is expected to commence before the end of 2022 with the planned commercial operation in 2025. Once completed, it will be the largest wind farm in ASEAN as well as region's first cross-border wind energy project.
