Because coal power output will be mobilized at a high level during the dry season for electricity production, coal consumption will begin to increase sharply.

In February 2025, with favorable weather conditions for coal and mineral mining and production activities, right after the Lunar New Year holiday, the entire Vietnam National Coal - Mineral Industries Group (TKV) entered production and business activities at a high pace, so basically the monthly production and business targets met the set plan.

Raw coal production in February 2025 reached 3.28 million tons, equal to 106% of the plan, consumption was 3.92 million tons, of which coal for power generation was estimated at 3.35 million tons; stripped soil reached 12.63 million m3; tunnel excavation reached 21,000 meters, equal to 102% of the plan.

Converted alumina mineral production reached 121,000 tons, equal to 102% of the plan, consumption was 126,300 tons, equal to 103% of the plan. Copper concentrate production was 9,400 tons, equal to 127% of the plan, production was 2,440 tons of copper plate; 682 tons of zinc ingot; 15,700 tons of iron concentrate.

Produced 869 million kWh of electricity, equal to 104% of the plan. In addition, produced 5,500 tons of explosives, consumed 8,000 tons; produced 17,000 tons of Ammonium Nitrate, equal to 108% of the plan; consumed 17,900 tons, equal to 113% of the plan.

Completing basic targets according to the operating plan has brought TKV's total revenue in February 2025 to an expected VND 13,650 billion.

Entering March 2025, with the forecast that the weather will continue to be favorable for coal and mineral mining activities, the demand for coal is expected to enter a strong growth cycle due to the high level of coal-fired power generation in the dry season for electricity production. In order to complete the operating targets of the first quarter of 2025, TKV will implement the March production and business plan with a number of key targets.

Expected production of 3.52 million tons of raw coal; coal consumption of 4.96 million tons, of which electricity consumption is 4.21 million tons; earth and rock excavation of 14.1 million m3; 23,100 meters of tunnel excavation;...

Alumina products are expected to reach 131,000 tons, consumption 142 thousand tons; exploitation of 114,000 tons of raw copper ore, 625 tons of zinc ingots, 2,700 tons of copper plates... The target is to produce 1,020 million kWh of electricity, 7,000 tons of explosives, supply 10,100 tons; Ammonium Nitrate production is expected to reach 17,000 tons, consumption 17,300 tons...

Strive to complete the first quarter of 2025, raw coal reaches 9.75 million tons; coal consumption reaches 12.8 million tons; Alumina products reach 385,000 tons, consumption reaches 325,000 tons; ore concentrate production reaches 28,200 tons, consumption reaches 8,500 tons. Cumulative copper plate production in the first quarter is 8,440 tons, copper plate consumption reaches 5,600 tons...

The target for the first quarter of 2025 is to produce 2.72 billion kWh of electricity; 18,000 tons of explosives; 45,200 tons of Ammonium Nitrate...

To complete the set targets, TKV will strengthen management and supervision of production and business sectors through operational targets and technical and management solutions; proactively produce, blend and process coal to ensure coal supply for electricity production in 2025 according to Directive No. 01/CT-TTg of the Prime Minister; direction of the Ministry of Industry and Trade on ensuring coal supply for electricity production in 2025 and the following years.
