Project Description
The project aims to construct a double-circuit 500- kV high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission line from Viet Nam-s border with Yunnan Province (PRC) to Soc Son (Viet Nam), along with a direct current converter station, substations, and 220-kV transmission lines. It will also provide capacity building for EVN staff. This project will enable the importation of low-cost power from the PRC to meet the load growth in Northern Viet Nam, strengthen high voltage power transmission, and provide reliable and improved quality power supplies to all types of users. The feasibility study is under consideration by EVN and China Southern Power Grid.
