Accordingly, Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN) is the investor, and the investor representative is Power Project Management Board 3 (EVNPMB3).
The project aims to provide stable and safe electricity to the grid on Con Dao Island. Thereby meeting the development goals of this district as well as ensuring national security and defense, and national sovereignty over seas and islands.
This is a fairly large-scale project, including a 110kV submarine cable, 77.7km long from Vinh Chau (Soc Trang province) to Con Dao.
There is also an underground cable from the landing point in Con Dao to the transformer station in Con Dao with a route length of about 8.5km.
Along with that is the overhead line system from Vinh Chau transformer station to the transition point to underground cable about 17.5km long.
The total investment of this project is up to more than 4,900 billion VND, of which the support capital from the central budget is about more than 2,500 billion VND, the rest is EVN's own capital. It is expected that in the fourth quarter of 2025, the project will be completed and energized.
Comparing power supply options for Con Dao, pulling underground cables to bring electricity from the national grid to the island is the most optimal when it comes to stability and minimizing impacts on the environment and fresh nature of Con Dao.
Currently, the electricity supply for Con Dao is mainly from diesel generators.
