The North welcomes the 'golden' rain, but hydroelectric reservoirs are still dry?

The Department of Industrial Safety Techniques and Environment (DAST) said that on June 21, the water level at hydroelectric reservoirs remained low. It is forecasted that in the coming time, the water flow to the reservoirs will not be high, hydroelectric plants in the Northern and North Central regions will mainly regulate water to ensure minimum flow, generate electricity moderately to ensure the safety of the generators during operation, and increase the water level for electricity generation.

Specifically, today, the water level at Lai Chau Lake is 945 m3/s; Son La Lake: 330 m3/s; Hoa Binh Lake: 330 m3/s; Thac Ba Lake: 55 m3/s; Tuyen Quang Lake: 315 m3/s; Ban Chat Lake: 217.7 m3/s; Trung Son Lake: 255 m3/s; Ban Ve Lake: 39 m3/s; Hua Na Lake: 28 m3/s; Binh Dien Lake: 6 m3/s; Huong Dien Lake: 75 m3/s.

The low water level at Son La hydroelectric reservoir has caused the power plant to operate at a moderate level.

Some lakes are still near dead water level: Thac Ba, Ban Ve, Dong Nai 3.

According to ATMT, the Northern region has entered the flood season but the flow to reservoirs is low, the water level of the reservoirs increases slowly, some hydropower plants are generating electricity at a moderate rate with low flow, water level, and capacity: Son La, Huoi Quang, Ban Chat, Thac Ba, Ban Ve, Thac Mo, Dong Nai 3.

Updated data on the morning of June 21 from the National Power System Control Center (A0) showed that the total load of the power system on June 20 reached 856.6 million kWh. Of which, the North is estimated at about 405.6 million kWh, the Central region is about 79.5 million kWh, and the South is about 370.9 million kWh.

The peak power capacity of the power system (Pmax) at 2 p.m. reached 41,407.1 MW. Specifically, the peak capacity in the South reached 18,417.8 MW, in the North reached 18,871.5 MW and in the Central region reached 4,086.7 MW.

On June 20, 2023, the total output mobilized from hydropower was about 197.1 million kWh (79.1 million kWh in the North); Coal-fired thermal power mobilized 441.1 million kWh (273.1 million kWh in the North); Gas turbines mobilized 104.1 million kWh; renewable energy electricity was over 119.7 million kWh; Oil-fired power did not need to be mobilized.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade and Vietnam Electricity Group are continuing to direct relevant units to increase power sources and flexibly operate reservoirs in the context of difficulties in hydropower reservoirs; urging thermal power plants to prioritize handling incidents of generators; ensuring coal and gas supply for power generation; actively supplementing renewable energy sources for the system; enhancing safe operation of the Central - Northern transmission system; and at the same time, promoting propaganda work to implement the Prime Minister's Directive on electricity saving...
