Successful grid-connected of unit 1 of Ialy Hydropower Plant expansion project

16:45, 26/11/2024

At 4:38 a.m. on November 26, 2024, unit 1 (180MW) of the Ialy Hydropower Plant (HPP) expansion project was successfully connected to the national grid after only nearly 3 years of implementing the project.

Currently, unit 2 has also completed 99% of the equipment installation work, striving to connect to the grid before December 21, 2024, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Vietnam Power Sector's Traditional Day (December 21, 1954 - December 21, 2024).

The Ialy HPP expansion project includes 2 units with designed capacity of 360MW, is invested by Vietnam Electricity (EVN), implemented by Power Project Management Board 2 (EVNPMB2) (on behalf of EVN), engineering consulted by Power Engineering Consulting Joint Stock Company 1, construction supervised by EVNPMB2, and equipment installation consulted by Ialy Hydropower Company and EVN Repair Service Center.

Once put into operation, the Ialy HPP expansion project will increase the capacity mobilization ability for loads in the Southern region, especially during peak hours; Contribute to improving the working mode of the power system (increasing source and peak load of the load curve, increasing flexibility in operation, increasing reliability and safety coefficients, etc.), thereby contributing to reducing production costs of the system; Maximize the flow capacity by limiting the annual excess water discharge, increasing the average annual power output value by about 233.20 million kWh/year. The project also contributes to reducing annual fuel costs, reducing CO2 emissions, and reducing dependence on fossil fuels; Reducing the operating intensity and time of existing units, thereby extending the life of the equipment, and saving maintenance and repair costs.
