The capital amount is 4 times as much as the annual investment value of Phu Yen Power Company (Phu Yen PC).

According to Mr. Thai Minh Chau, Director of the Phu Yen PC, the power grid in the whole province has been operating over 15 years, with many degraded sections, outdated rural reception power grid. Although the Power sector has annually invested a great deal of capital to rehabilitate and repair, it cannot be synchronized due to the lack of capital and increasing in load demand. 

The project is expected to be accomplished and put into operation before 31/12/2018, ensuring uninterrupted and stable power supply for people, especially to meet the power demand of investors in the coming time, contributing to building the socio-economic development of the locality.
