Quang Trach energy infrastructure development in Vietnam

Overview

Vietnam Electricity (EVN) is expanding the Quang Trach Power Center in Quang Tri province into a major energy hub. The development includes the Quang Trach I coal-fired thermal power plant, which has begun feeding electricity into the national grid and is undergoing testing, with commercial operation expected by the end of 2026.

Construction has also commenced on the Quang Trach II LNG thermal power plant, a $1.5 billion project utilizing United States technology. This plant is expected to reach commercial operation by February 2030. Additionally, EVN is in the process of selecting an EPC contractor for the Quang Trach III LNG plant, which is projected to have a capacity of 1,500 MW and aim for commercial operation in early 2031.

The center is integrating shared infrastructure, such as a coal import port capable of receiving 100,000-ton vessels, to support these various power generation projects.
