Vietnam continues to expand its power grid and transmission infrastructure to meet rising demand. In Central Vietnam, the Central Vietnam Power Corporation (EVNCPC) plans to invest is investing approximately 4,324 billion VND into the Quảng Trị province grid for 2026–2030, 2026–2030. This includes 12 categories of 110kV projects to add 102.5 km of transmission lines and nearly 400 MVA of transformer capacity, targeting a projected 13,000 MW increase in power capacity. EVNCPC officials have conducted field inspections in the Trieu Phong and Hai Lang districts to ensure the grid can support industrial projects like the Southeast Quang Tri Economic Zone and the Capella Quang Tri Industrial Park. In Northern Vietnam, the National Power Transmission Corporation (EVNNPT) is accelerating four critical projects: 500 kV substations in Hai Phong, Thai Binh, and Bac Ninh, and a 220 kV substation in Yen Dung. While land clearance and structural components are is progressing, the projects face hurdles such as bidding delays for equipment and difficulties sourcing materials like leveling sand. At the Thai Binh 500 kV substation, efforts are focused on resolving these issues to ensure completion before the 2027 heat season. Reflecting growing demand, the The Northern Power Corporation (EVNNPC) reported an 11.49% increase in commercial electricity output for the first nine months of 2026, reaching 89.31 billion kWh. To manage this growth, this, the corporation has energized 45 110kV grid projects and 801 medium and low-voltage projects. These investments have contributed projects, contributing to a 50.14% decrease in average power outage time per customer, while maintaining electricity loss rates at 3.48%. Regionally, the Quang Ninh Power Company supported this trend by increasing its output by 11.15% through the completion of various line renovations and transformer station installations. time. In Southern Vietnam, the Southern Power Corporation (EVNSPC) is also accelerating infrastructure investment to support economic growth and energy security. During the first nine months of 2026, EVNSPC commenced 46 110kV grid projects and energized 64 projects at the 220kV and 110kV levels, levels during the first nine months of 2026, with a disbursement value of 13,278.3 billion VND. Despite challenges including land clearance, procurement issues, and harsh weather, the corporation EVNSPC is prioritizing power supply for industrial zones and urban centers. aims to extend its N-1 reliability standard to residential and business customers by 2028.
