Specifically, the Group completed the task of securing power for the country's socio-economic development and serving the people’s demand for domestic activities.

The power supply to islands district and remote areas was continued to be properly implemented by the Group.
The power quality is increasingly improved. For power supply reliability indicators, EVN’s performance was better than the target in its assigned plan. In which, the System average interruption duration index (SAIDI) in 2018 was 724.48 minutes/customer, a decrease of 304.3 minutes/customer compared to that of 2017.

With this result, the index of power access has been one of the 4 highest ones in ASEAN, completed 2 years ahead of the target set by the Government; contributing to increasing Vietnam’s rank in business environment improvement in the context of ranking reduction in many other component indexes.
For customer services, EVN not only changes its mindset and service attitude but also takes full advantage of modern technologies, improves its quality and diversifies its services. From December 2018, EVN officially provided online electricity service at level 4 - equivalent to the highest level in online public service provision under the Government's regulations.
EVN connected electricity service provision to Public Administration Center and Online public service portal at 63/63 provinces/cities.
