Power outages in the North improved

According to information from the National Power System Dispatch Center (AO), on June 10, the total available power capacity in the North reached 20,321 MW, of which the available capacity of hydropower was 5,244 MW.

Power outages in the North have improved, while the South and Central regions are still guaranteed to meet their electricity needs.

The mobilization of thermal power plants in the North increased by 1,000 MW. Today, the incidents at some thermal power plants (S1 Nghi Son 1 - 300 MW, Thai Binh 1 S1 - 300 MW, Quang Ninh S1 -300 MW) were successfully resolved.

Along with that, the mobilization of renewable energy plants with a mobilized capacity of wind power is 33.9 million kWh, solar power is 70.2 million kWh. 19 transitional renewable energy plant projects with a total capacity of 1221.12 MW.

However, according to AO's assessment, power source incidents still pose a high risk in many places, especially coal-fired thermal power plants due to severe heat, high load demand, and continuous mobilization of generators. According to statistics, the total capacity of coal-fired power plants with prolonged incidents that cannot be mobilized is about 3,250 MW, and the total short-term incidents are 410 MW.

Meanwhile, the mobilization of hydropower plants at multi-purpose hydropower reservoirs in the North, namely Lai Chau, Son La, Ban Chat, Huoi Quang, and Tuyen Quang, has improved, due to improved water supply compared to June 8.

However, most hydropower reservoirs are still near dead water level, resulting in the inability to mobilize about 5,000MW of source capacity.

It is forecasted that in the next few days, the North will have moderate to heavy rain, and hydroelectric reservoirs will actively accumulate water to exceed the dead water level.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade and EVN are continuously urging and seeking solutions to increase the operation of thermal power sources to cope with the water shortage in large hydropower reservoirs. At the same time, the units continue to implement the Prime Minister's directive on saving electricity; ensuring the supply of coal and gas for power generation; actively adding new power sources to the system; focusing on overcoming power source problems.

Experts recommend that although the hydrological situation is more favorable and coal-fired power sources are supplemented, the hot weather situation continues to be complicated, with high electricity demand, so hydropower plants need to operate flexibly and increase water storage in hydropower reservoirs.

People and businesses need to raise their sense of responsibility and promote programs to save electricity and water to avoid pressure on the national power system, especially in the North.
