The project plays the role of the capacity reserve, failure prevention and system frequency regulation, and plays an important role in the national power system, especially in the present and future context with many renewable energy plants (solar power, wind power) with low stability put into operation. The main task of the project is to cover the load chart of the system, contributing to reducing the difference (flattening) the chart by mobilizing pump capacity at the off-peak hours and generating power at hours.
Bac Ai Accumulated Hydropower Project uses modern equipment and technology with pumped storage hydropower work use the most modern integrated technology of reversing pump-turbine and motor - generator in the world. The project uses the water source from the Song Cai reservoir belonging to the Tan My irrigation system as the lower reservoir. Water is pumped from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir to generate power through 2 parallel tunnels with diameters ranging from 5.5m to 7.5m, with a total length of each tunnel of more than 2,700m.
