According to data from Vietnam Electricity Group, at 11:00 AM on March 19, in the Northwest region, reservoirs on the Da River system continued to play a key role.
Son La Lake reached an elevation of 214.31m (0.69m lower than the normal water level), and is generating electricity with a discharge flow of 957 m3/s.
Hoa Binh Lake is at 115.18m, discharging 488 m3/s through the plant.
Notably, Lai Chau Lake reached 294.23m, approaching the normal water level (295m), but has not yet discharged water.
The two reservoirs of Ban Chat and Huoi Quang maintain stable operation, without overflowing.
In the Northeast region, Tuyen Quang reservoir is at 114.78m, generating electricity with a discharge flow of more than 121 m3/s.
In the North Central and South Central regions, the water level of lakes is generally lower than the normal water level.
Reservoirs such as Trung Son, Ban Ve, A Vuong, Song Tranh 2 mainly accumulate water and have not generated overflow discharge.
In the Central Highlands, many lakes have quite good water inflows, maintaining stable power generation.
Some reservoirs have large discharge flows such as Se San 3 (450 m3/s), Se San 4 (320 m3/s), Ialy (275 m3/s). However, most do not discharge overflow, only discharge through the plant as the main source.
In the Southeast region, Tri An reservoir reached 61.44m (close to the normal water level of 62m), and is discharging through the plant with a flow rate of 400 m3/s.
According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, the weather forecast for March 19th, the Northern region will have light rain in some places at night, early morning fog and light fog scattered; sunny skies with reduced clouds in the afternoon.
The Southern region has showers and thunderstorms in some places at night; sunny during the day, especially the East has hot sunny places.
