The total amount of electricity produced and imported
next year is scheduled to exceed 120.7 billion kWh, a 10.89 per cent increase
over this year, according to a new plan for power supply and electricity system
operation.
The plan, which has been
approved by the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT), sets a target of 58.1
billion kWh of electricity in the dry season and 62.6 billion kWh in the wet
season.
The hydro-power plants are
expected to generate more than 45 billion kWh in total, including 18.3 billion
kWh in the dry season and 26.6 billion kWh in the wet.
Electricity produced by
thermo-power plants would be 24.7 billion kWh, with 13.7 billion kWh in the dry
and 11 billion kWh in the wet.
The electricity imported from
China by the Electricity of Viet Nam would be an estimated 4.65 billion kWh.
The ministry has asked EVN to
build up and implement the weekly and monthly plan on electricity supply.
EVN was required to co-operate
with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the National
Hydro-Meteorological Service, the Vietnam Oil and Gas Corporation and the
Vietnam Coal, Mineral Industries Holding Corporation to ensure effective use of
water sources for power supply and agricultural production, as well as the
supply of coal, oil and gas for electricity generation.
