Power supply projects for Phu Quoc

08/10/2011

Phu Quoc Island District in the southern province of Kien Giang will receive more than VND9.16 trillion (US$436.2 million) to implement three power supply projects, said the Phu Quoc Investment and Development Management Board.

The approved projects include installation of the 56km Ha Tien – Phu Quoc 110kV underground cable system, which is expected to be completed next year to connect the island to the national power grid. A 200-megawatt-per-day thermal power plant will be built in Ganh Dau Commune.

The Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Industry and Trade to work out the planning for the plant. The thermal power plant, worth more than VND7.22 trillion (US$344 million), is included in the national power planning until 2015, which was ratified by the Prime Minister.

Under the plan, the first turbines should be operational by 2015. Another VND180 billion (US$8.57 million) will be allocated for developing wind and solar energy on Hon Thom Island, in a project designed to generate 1.27 megawatts of power each day.
