Envision Energy Singapore is also finalising procedures to begin construction of the 300-MW Envision Nam Po wind power plant in Vietnam’s northern mountainous province of Dien Bien in June. The company is aiming to have completed construction by the end of 2026.

The $420-million, 105-ha venture is set to connect to the 500kV Lai Chau transformer station via the 220kV power line in the northern mountainous region. It will feature 60 turbines of 5MW each, providing 900 million kWh per year on average.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh met with Nate Franklin, chairman of Pacifico Energy Group from the United States, on March 12 to discuss wind power projects.

Grid operators are investing heavily in expanding infrastructure to adapt to the proliferation of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and to mitigate the intermittency of renewable assets.

Envision Energy, a world-leading green technology company, continues to solidify its position as a global leader in wind energy, ranking among the top in both turbine orders and installations for 2024.
