Mr. Dinh Van Cuong - Deputy Director of PTC3
- Please tell me why Power Transmission Company 3 (PTC3) cooperates with Power Transmission Service Company (NPTS) to repair and replace equipment at Vinh Tan 500kV Substation right on the occasion of the Lunar New Year 2023?
- Mr. Dinh Van Cuong: Vinh Tan 500kV substation plays a very important role in the national transmission grid system, as a power transmission node from the cluster of thermal power plants (TPP) of the Vinh Tan Power Center as well as releasing capacity from renewable energy sources in Ninh Thuan and Binh Thuan provinces.
In order to take advantage of the low load demand during the Lunar New Year holiday, facilitating power cuts to replace, repair, and maintain equipment, PTC3 has coordinated with NPTS to organize a replacement, repair, and maintain equipment even during the time of Tet holiday with the highest consensus and determination. This will contribute to ensuring the safe operation and uninterrupted power supply of the Vinh Tan 500kV substation and ensure the rights of renewable energy sources in the area. In addition, the replacement of the current transformer improves the power transmission capacity at the substation, ready for high-load operation from the dry season in 2023.
