According to the Bac Giang Provincial Planning approved by the Prime Minister, commercial electricity in the 2026-2030 period is expected to grow at a high rate, at about 13.4%. The reason is that in the area, there are many industrial parks with growing loads such as Quang Chau, Van Trung, Hoa Phu, etc., and a series of new projects being implemented such as the expanded Viet Han Industrial Park, Chau Minh-Bac Ly-Huong Lam, Phuc Son, and so on.

In the 2021-2024 period, the Northern Power Corporation (EVNNPC) implemented 18 110kV power grid projects with a total investment of VND 2,890 billion and 119 medium and low-voltage power grid projects with a total investment of VND 1,250 billion. Prioritizing to ensure sufficient power supply for 2025 and the following years, Vietnam Electricity and Northern Power Corporation continued to synchronously invest and construct the transmission grid system, 110kV and medium and low-voltage grids. In particular, constructing new Yen Dung and Lang Giang 220kV substations; Da Mai, Song Khe 2, Quang Chau 3, Bac Lung, and Son Dong 110kV substations; increasing the capacity of  Quang Chau 2, Song Cau, and Viet Han 110kV substations; building the 110kV feeders after the 220kV substation; renovating and improving the transmission capacity of the power grid... with a total investment value of thousands of billions of dongs.

Therefore, EVNNPC has required the Bac Giang Provincial Party Committee/People's Committee to pay attention to directing departments, branches, sectors, and investors of industrial parks and clusters to coordinate and unify so that EVNNPC/Bac Giang Power Company can invest in power grid infrastructure to supply power directly to each production customer in industrial parks and clusters. At the same time, it is requested that the Provincial People's Committee direct the Management Board of industrial parks and clusters to inform Bac Giang Power Company as soon as possible about cases where secondary investors apply for investment policy approval so that EVNNPC/Bac Giang Power Company can have a plan to synchronous invest in transmission and distribution grid.

EVNNPC desires that the provincial government will direct departments/offices/sectors to support and promptly complete investment approval and site clearance procedures to speed up the energizing progress as well as mapping and marking the route of power lines and substations from 110kV and above which is expected to be invested in and built by 2030 in the area.

In addition, EVNNPC also invests in purchasing and promoting the application of many new modern technologies in operation management to detect abnormalities early, prevent incidents (CBM), repair the grid without de-energization (Hotline), etc., contributing to increasingly improving the power supply reliability.

EVNNPC and Bac Giang Power Company always provide the best and most professional service in business and customer care. Thus, customers receive the highest benefits in terms of power supply for production, which is the basic foundation for business development.
