HA NOI (Biz Hub)— The Thai electricity firm Egati will invest in a 1,200MW thermal power plant worth about US$2.26 billion in the central province of Quang Tri.
Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, Nguyen Duc Cuong, announced this yesterday.
The plant will be built in the form of BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer), and will be transferred to Viet Nam after 25 years.
According to Cuong, the plant, which will cover 450ha in Hai Lang District, will include two turbines. The first is expected to be operational between 2019-20 and the second one in 2030.
Once operational, the plant will generate 7.25 billion kWh of commercial electricity a year. — VNS
