On the morning of May 12 in Hanoi, EVN Vice President Nguyen Tai Anh chaired a briefing with the Ninh Thuan Nuclear Power Project Management Board (EVNNPB) regarding the project's implementation status and upcoming action plans.

According to the report at the meeting, EVNNPB is coordinating with consulting units and the Group's functional departments to continue refining the dossier for adjusting the Pre-Feasibility Study Report of the Ninh Thuan 1 Nuclear Power Plant Project, to be submitted to competent authorities for review and approval.

EVNNPB stated that it has completed the bid evaluation and approved the contractor selection result for the consulting package for site investigation and update of Site Approval Dossier (SAD1) phase 1. This will facilitate the issuance of site permit to begin surveys for the design of the Ninh Thuan 1 Nuclear Power Plant.

Additionally, EVNNPB is carrying out tasks related to human resource training for the project, preparing construction infrastructure, reviewing the system of technical regulations and standards, and coordinating with authorities to refine mechanisms and policies related to nuclear power.

In May 2026, EVNNPB will continue to coordinate with relevant agencies and partners to finalize the dossier for adjusting the project’s investment policy. It will also implement procedures for surveys and technical design, while preparing the necessary conditions for personnel training and the rollout of owner’s engineer service packages.

Vice President Nguyen Tai Anh requested that EVNNPB and EVN's functional departments continue to review the project's overall implementation plan, the master procurement strategy, contract options, and financial mechanisms to ensure they align with actual conditions and current regulations. Furthermore, EVNNPB must proactively coordinate with state management agencies, consultants, and partners to resolve issues arising during negotiations, investment preparation, and subsequent project steps. He also emphasized strengthening risk assessments and proposing feasible solutions to ensure progress, efficiency, and risk control throughout the project's execution.
