According to data from Vietnam Electricity Group, at 2:00 PM on June 11, the water flow to large hydropower reservoirs in the Northwest region continued to be maintained at a high level, in which Hoa Binh reservoir recorded the largest water flow to the reservoir in the country.
The water flow to Hoa Binh reservoir reached 3,529m3/s, while the total discharge through power generation was 1,622m3/s. The upstream water level of the reservoir is at an elevation of 98.07m, nearly 19m lower than the normal water level.
At Son La reservoir, the water inflow to the reservoir reached 2,101m3/s, total discharge flow of 3,212m3/s. The reservoir water level is at an elevation of 196.97m, about 18m lower than the normal water level of 215m.
Lai Chau Lake has a water inflow rate of 719m3/s and is generating electricity with a discharge rate of 1,078m3/s. Meanwhile, Ban Chat, Huoi Quang, Thac Ba and Tuyen Quang reservoirs do not discharge water.
In the North Central region, Khe Bo reservoir has a water inflow rate of nearly 295m3/s, with a total discharge rate of 223.2m3/s. Trung Son, Ban Ve and Quang Tri reservoirs continue to store water when no discharge flow has occurred.
