On the morning of June 23, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh continued to inspect the site, urge and encourage the staff, workers and employees, and chaired a meeting with relevant agencies on the implementation of the 500kV Power Transmission Line Circuit 3 Quang Trach - Pho Noi project.
"Never thought I could do such a project so quickly"
Inspecting the construction of VT22 pole in Quynh Trang commune (Hoang Mai town, Nghe An), Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh highly appreciated the results of the forces' deployment, when they transported nearly 200 tons of steel on rugged and difficult mountainous terrain to erect an 88m high electric pole.
After inspecting the construction situation in Nghe An, Ha Tinh and Thanh Hoa provinces, the Prime Minister chaired a meeting with leaders of ministries, branches, two localities (Nghe An and Ha Tinh) and Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN) about the project.
Reporting on the construction progress, EVN Chairman Dang Hoang An said that Thanh Hoa transformer station will be accepted on June 25, while Quang Trach and Pho Noi transformer stations have been completed.
Mr. An emphasized that the project is large in volume but was completed at lightning speed. The columns are taller and heavier than other projects. If multiplied, the volume is equivalent to 1,000km of other projects.
The EVN Chairman cited the 700km Quang Trach – Pleiku project that took 4 years to complete. Meanwhile, on January 25, when the Prime Minister held a meeting in Thanh Hoa with 9 provinces about the 500kV circuit 3 project, the site clearance had not yet been completed.
"The electricity industry itself never thought it would be possible to complete such a project so quickly," said Mr. An, affirming his determination to basically complete the project by the end of June and complete the acceptance procedures and inaugurate the entire project in July.
Strive to finish erecting poles, pulling wires, and testing in June
Concluding the meeting, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh stated that this project has a huge amount of work and very high goals, but with high determination, great efforts, and drastic actions, we have shortened the time, accelerated the progress, and ensured the quality and life of the people who have given up their land for the project.
The Head of Government highly appreciated the progress of the 500kV circuit 3 project, and also commended the team of officers, engineers, and workers from units of the electricity sector across the country who came to support the project implementation, working enthusiastically and selflessly in the hot weather of the Central region.
According to the Prime Minister, in harsh weather conditions, sometimes the sun was blazing hot, sometimes it was pouring rain, but all the forces participating in the project made tireless efforts, overcoming all challenges to achieve very good progress.
In the coming time, the Prime Minister requested to launch a special peak competition, "sprint", "lightning speed" to strive to basically complete the work of erecting poles, pulling wires, and testing by June. In July, inspections, technical operation procedures, acceptance, environmental restoration and project inauguration will be conducted.
In particular, the Government leader assigned EVN to focus on erecting poles, pulling wires, operating transformer stations, and implementing necessary procedures... Localities coordinated to hand over the route corridor, mobilized youth, women, veterans... to support the implementation of other tasks such as transporting raw materials, equipment, logistics, accommodation... so that workers could focus on their work.
The Prime Minister praised the press agencies for actively participating, "creating motivation and inspiration" to promote the project's implementation and asked the press agencies to continue to focus on communicating good experiences and valuable lessons in implementing this project.
On this occasion, the Prime Minister praised EVN and relevant agencies and units for ensuring electricity supply despite the fact that the source did not increase while demand increased dramatically. He emphasized the need to be ready to prepare for the next key power grid projects.
The 500kV power transmission line circuit 3 project from Pho Noi, Hung Yen province to Quang Trach, Quang Binh province, has a total length of about 519km. The total investment of the project is about 22,356 billion VND.
The project includes 4 component projects: Quang Trach – Quynh Luu; Quynh Luu – Thanh Hoa; Thanh Hoa – Nam Dinh 1 Thermal Power Plant and Nam Dinh 1 – Pho Noi Thermal Power Plant.
The component projects will start construction in October 2023 and January 2024. The Prime Minister has directed to strive to complete the project before June 30.
