During the implementation, the project encountered many difficulties. However, under the close direction of Vietnam Electricity and the high determination of the Power Project Management Board No.2 & the contractors, the project was successfully energized at 01h12'' on 26th April 2023.
When the Nam Kong 2 and 3 hydropower plant projects in Laos complete the procedures according to regulations, the Bo Y switching station will receive electricity from these plants (expected before 15 May 2023) to be integrated into Vietnam’s power system.
The project of Bo Y 220kV switching station and connection 220kV power lines contribute to the implementation of bilateral commitments on cooperation relations between the Governments of Vietnam and Laos in the field of energy development; at the same time strengthen the capacity of Vietnam’s power system, especially in the hot season.
