EVNHCMC workers test the substation before energizing
The main item of the project is to install a T4 110kV transformer of 40MVA capacity, operating in parallel with a T5 transformer of the same capacity (40MVA).
Hiep Binh Phuoc 220/110kV substation is an important node in the Ho Chi Minh City power grid diagram. The substation consists of two 220kV transformers (of 250MVA each) and two 110kV transformers, loop-connected with Hoc Mon 220/110kV substation and Thu Duc 220/110kV substation; contributing to ensure power supply to the districts of Thu Duc, Binh Thanh, Phu Nhuan, District 12 and Hoc Mon; at the same time reducing power supply pressure on Tao Dan 220kV Substation.
The Hiep Binh Phuoc 220/110kV Substation and all substations in Ho Chi Minh City are remotely controlled and operated on an unmanned mode. After the capacity reinforcement, Hiep Binh Phuoc 220/110kV Substation not only ensures a better supply of stable, high-quality power to the northern Ho Chi Minh City but also enhances the stability and flexibility in ensuring power supply to the City during the hot season.
