In addition to fulfilling production and business plan, Power Engineering Consulting Joint Stock Company 4 (EVNPECC4) in 2023 also focuses on enhancing training and research activities to improve the quality and effectiveness of engineering consulting and power projects in Vietnam particularly, as well as meeting clients’ satisfaction in general. From May 24th to May 30th, 2023, the EVNPECC4 delegation, led by Mr. Le Cao Quyen, Chairman of the Board, visited and worked with Tokyo Electric Power Services Company Limited (TEPSCO) in Japan.
During this trip, the officials and engineers from EVNPECC4 visited and worked at TEPSCO's headquarters and TEPSCO’s Load Dispatch Center.
Additionally, the EVNPECC4 delegation visited the Higashi Uchisaiwaichou 275kV Underground Substation, which has a voltage level of 275kV/66kV and transformer capacity of 3x300MVA (in operation since 1997).
The delegation also had the opportunity to visit the Shiobara Pumped Storage Hydropower Plant. The Shiobara Pumped Storage Hydropower Plant consists of two fixed-speed units (operated since 1994) and one adjustable-speed unit (operated since 1995).
