It is estimated that by 2025, Vietnam's power demand will grow at an annual rate of 8.5 percent, and the power demand will reach 90,000 megawatts. The Loc Ninh project can provide more than 800 million kilowatt-hours of clean electricity and achieve a reduction of more than 800,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide.
It will alleviate the local power shortage, improve the energy structure and provide strong support for local green development.
In recent years, POWERCHINA Zhongnan Engineering Corporation Limited has continuously promoted the shift to clean energy sources such as wind power and solar power generation in China. It has also worked to expand its brand influence in overseas markets to further promote the concept of green energy and green development to countries around the world.
