At the same time, NLDC has maintained an uninterrupted operation of the competitive wholesale power market since July 1, 2012; actively assisted power generators in participating in the power market. In 2016, ten more power generators directly offered electricity prices in the market, raising the number of directly participating power generators to 73, with the total installed capacity of 17,929 MW, representing 46% of the total installed capacity of the system.
The President and CEO of EVN Mr. Dang Hoang An awarded Certificate of Merit of EVN to teams and individuals of NLDC who had excellent achievements in 2016
In 2017 and the upcoming time, the President and CEO suggested that NLDC should continue the power system operation in a safe, reliable manner, efficiently operating the power market. The President and CEO of EVN recommended that NLDC should develop an advanced and high security technical system in the power system operation. In particular, NLDC should promote its application of science and technology, as well as training and development of highly qualified human resource in order to meet requirements for power system operation with nearly 42,000 MW generation capacity, being ranked second among the countries in the South East Asia region and 30th in the world now.
