To meet the market's demand for coal, especially coal for electricity, from the first days and months of 2025, units of the Vietnam National Coal - Mineral Industries Group (TKV) have boosted coal production and consumption. TKV's determination this year is to strive to successfully complete the production and business plan and provide enough coal for electricity production in the coming time.
On the morning of January 31 (the third day of Tet), Da Bac Logistics Company imported more than 11,618 tons of coal from Nam Mau Coal Company. These are the first tons of coal "entering the warehouse" of the new year to serve consumption, signaling a bustling new coal season. Currently, Da Bac Logistics Company is the main coal consumer in the Western region of TKV. In 2025, the Company strives to consume 11.78 million tons of coal and purchase 11.77 million tons of coal.
To soon complete this goal, right from the first months of the new year, the Company closely followed the Group's management, proactively taking consumption solutions to meet customers' needs, especially coal supplied for electricity production... Currently, taking advantage of favorable weather conditions, the Company is speeding up the progress of coal imports from mines and building a suitable coal blending plan for delivery to customers, ensuring sufficient quantity and type.
In the Cam Pha area, on the morning of the 4th day of Tet, Cua Ong Coal Selection Company coordinated with Cam Pha Port and Logistics Company to pour 23,000 tons of 6A.1 coal dust to the Hai Nam 88 ship under a consumption contract for Vinh Tan 1 Thermal Power Company Limited. This is the ship that "stormed" Cam Pha port to receive the first tons of coal consumed in the new year of At Ty 2025. The organization of loading and pouring the first tons of coal consumed on the first day of the new year of At Ty has an important meaning, opening the way for coal consumption to be smooth, contributing to the successful completion of TKV's coal production and consumption plan, together with Quang Ninh province to achieve the highest goals set in 2025.
Along with boosting coal consumption in the first days of the new year, on February 1 (the 4th day of Tet), some open-pit coal production units of TKV, such as Cao Son Coal Joint Stock Company, Ha Tu Coal Joint Stock Company, Deo Nai - Coc 6 Coal Joint Stock Company - TKV... started production at the beginning of the year. On February 3 (the 6th day of the first lunar month), all underground coal production units also organized the spring opening ceremony to resume normal production. In the first working days of the year, TKV required units to mobilize maximum human resources for production, increasing coal output to meet market demand.
In the first quarter of 2025, although there are fewer working days than in the other quarters, it is the first quarter of the new year, so TKV's coal production units take advantage of favorable weather conditions to focus on taking coal from the pit; ensure labor safety; maintain sufficient human resources, machinery and equipment for production, meet the coal demand of the market and strictly implement operational discipline and technical and technological indicators.
TKV assessed that the actual demand for coal consumption in the first months of the year is showing an upward trend. Increasing coal production to meet the needs of the economy, especially for electricity production, is an urgent requirement that the Group pays special attention to.
However, in the condition that the Group's coal mines have been fully mobilized, new mine projects have not been implemented due to obstacles, and coal inventories are low, the Group is also facing many difficulties. However, to meet the increasing coal consumption market, in 2025, TKV aims to produce 36.85 million tons of clean coal; consume 50 million tons of coal. The Group will import 13.2 million tons for blending.
Mr. Nguyen Huy Nam, Deputy General Director of TKV, said: Since the beginning of the year, coal mining units have been focusing on producing raw coal at the highest level to increase coal output, especially the open-pit units of Cao Son, Deo Nai - Coc Sau. In addition, units with favorable conditions are given priority to increase maximum output to meet coal demand for electricity, so that no customer who has signed a contract with TKV lacks coal for production.
The screening units focus on blending imported coal and domestically produced coal to ensure sufficient coal supply for EVN's power plants that have signed contracts to use imported blended coal with TKV; rearrange port warehouses to meet TKV's business tasks...
