After receiving your question, the website (evn.com.vn) Editorial Board sent it to Southern Power Corporation’s Contact Center and received the following answer:
- At the moment, there is no regulation about to what capacity that the customers using power not for their daily life have to install their own substation.
- The determination of usage capacity to provide power to customers depends on the actual capacity of the nearby public substation. If the customers’ usage capacity does not exceed the remaining capacity of the public substation, Power utility unit will sell power after the public substation to the customers. If the customers’ power capacity exceeds the present capacity of the public substation, Power utility unit cannot sell power to the customers right away. In order for your proactive usage of power, the customers can install their own substation.
- The benefits gained when the customers install their own substation are that the customers can be proactive in the operating time of their firm; the voltage is stable and not affected in comparison with using the public substation.
