📋 Tender Overview
On May 28, the National Power Transmission Corporation (EVNNPT), Power Transmission Company 1 (PTC1) in coordination with the Northern Power System Dispatch Center and related units successfully energized the project to install the second transformer (AT1) at the 220kV Nam Cam substation. Download The second transformer of Nam Cam 220 kV TBA has just been energized and put into operation - Photo: EVNNPT After completing the installation of the second transformer, the capacity of the Nam Cam 220 kV transformer station (TBA) is 500 MVA, doubling the current capacity. This is a level I energy project, group C invested by EVNNPT, PTC1 is assigned to manage and operate the project. The project is implemented on the reserve land area of Nam Cam 220kV substation in Nghi Loc commune, Nghe An province. The project has the scale of installing an AT1 220/110/22kV-250MVA transformer; On the 220 kV side, install equipment for a total 220 kV feeder of the new transformer; On the 110 kV side, install equipment for a total 110 kV feeder of the new transformer; At the same time, complete related technical solutions suitable for the new scale of the station. Once completed, the project contributes to increasing electricity supply for Nghe An province and the northern region; meeting N-1 criteria, improving the reliability and safety of power supply to the regional power grid, and sharing the load for the 220kV Do Luong and 220kV Vinh substations. According to Power Transmission Company 1, before installing the second transformer, the existing transformer at the Nam Cam 220kV substation often operated under full load, at times overloaded, potentially causing incidents. affecting the electricity supply. RELATED NEWS Energizing the project to enhance electricity security for the Capital during the hot season Energizing the project to enhance electricity assurance for the North on the occasion of the April 30th anniversary Successfully energizing the Go Cong 220kV Substation project and connection lines Implementing the direction of EVN and EVNNPT, PTC1 implemented the project under many difficult and challenging conditions. The construction process takes place when the equipment in the station is energized; Arranging the power cut schedule also encountered many difficulties due to the need to mobilize high capacity to ensure power supply to Nghe An province and the northern region during peak heat waves. However, with the close direction of EVNNPT and the efforts of PTC1, affiliated units, construction contractors and close coordination of the Northern Power System Dispatch Center, the project was successfully energized, meeting the set schedule. Successfully energizing the second transformer Nam Cam 220 kV substation not only contributes to improving operating capacity but also plays an important role in enhancing the assurance of electricity supply to the North in the context of intense heat, when electricity consumption capacity continuously peaks. Completion of the project at this time is also a practical activity of EVNNPT and PTC1 to celebrate Workers Month and Action Month on Occupational Safety and Hygiene in 2026 launched by the Vietnam Electricity Trade Union. To ensure supply Providing safe and stable electricity during the hot season, the Electricity Industry recommends that customers use electricity safely, economically and effectively, especially during peak heat periods. This not only contributes to reducing the load on the electrical system but also helps optimize electricity costs. Toan Thang
