The projects after completion and put into operation will contribute to improving the reliability and safety of power supply; strengthening grid connectivity, flexibility in operation management, ready to meet the requirements of double-digit economic growth in southern provinces and cities.
According to EVNSPC, identifying 2026 as a "pivot year" to create a foundation for the 5-year plan, period 2026 - 2030, the EVNSPC Party Committee has issued Resolution No. 46-NQ/ĐU on focusing on comprehensively completing production and business targets, especially the investment and construction of the power grid.
Accordingly, EVNSPC aims to accelerate the progress and shorten the implementation time of power grid investment projects to improve the efficiency of capital use, ensure safe and stable supply to meet the requirements of socio-economic development and people's lives in the southern provinces in 2026 and the following years.
To effectively implement the Resolution, EVNSPC directly assigns leaders to be in charge of each project, especially key and urgent projects. Difficulties and problems arising during the implementation are required to be handled promptly or reported to competent authorities in the spirit of "clear, specific, and within authority", so as not to affect the progress of power projects.
From the beginning of 2026 to now, the construction atmosphere on projects invested by EVNSPC is always urgent and serious. Right during the recent New Year holiday of 2026, thousands of officials, engineers, and workers of EVNSPC and the construction force of contractors still stayed at the construction site, maintaining the construction progress with the determination to bring the projects to completion on schedule.
In 2026, EVNSPC strives to start construction of 77 projects and energize 105 110kV grid projects, with a total investment of about 17,260 billion VND. In which, EVNSPC sets a goal to resolutely complete 51 projects in the first 4 months of the year, achieving achievements to celebrate its 51st anniversary of establishment (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2026).
