Reporting at the meeting, Mr. Nguyen Khac Nhan, Director of NPMB, said that the project has a length of about 80 km, aiming to strengthen the ability to connect the power grid and improve the transmission capacity of the 500 kV Nho Quan-Thuong Tin axis. At the same time, increasing power supply to the 220kV Phu Ly substation (TBA), meeting the increasing load demand in the provinces of Ninh Binh, Phu Tho, the southern area of Hanoi and surrounding areas. The project also contributes to improving the reliability and flexibility in operating the regional 500-220 kV transmission grid system. According to the original plan, the project was completed in 2025. However, due to problems in site clearance, the schedule was adjusted, expected to be completed in July 2026 to promptly meet the electricity supply needs of the region. To date, all 234/234 locations Column foundations and 118/118 corridor intersections have been handed over. Construction work has completed casting foundations in 234 positions, erecting columns in 230 positions and pulling ropes at 110/118 anchorages. For the 3-circuit section (from Nho Quan to Phu Ly), the units are pulling the final anchorages and installing tiebacks. For the 1-circuit line section (from Phu Ly to Thuong Tin), there are currently 3 positions that have not yet erected poles and 7 anchorages that have not yet pulled wires because they have to wait for the completion of energizing the 220 kV line section of the 3-circuit line. The current biggest difficulty of the project is that there are still many houses, structures and trees in the safety corridor of the line that have not been demolished or relocated in the provinces of Ninh Binh and Phu Tho.

At the meeting, the construction units affirmed that they will mobilize maximum human resources and equipment, focusing on implementing the remaining items in the sprint phase to speed up progress and meet the requirements of the investor. Direction at the meeting meeting, Acting General Director of EVNNPT Hoang Xuan Khoi emphasized that the remaining work volume is not large, but problems related to cutting down trees and handling houses and structures in the safety corridor of the route are key issues that need to be focused on resolving completely. To ensure energizing the 3-circuit route in June and completing the entire project in July 2026, EVNNPT requires NPMB to urgently work with the Peoples Committee of Ninh Binh province and relevant localities to remove remaining difficulties and obstacles. In particular, it is necessary to promote propaganda and mobilize households to voluntarily cut down trees that have been compensated and supported but have not yet been implemented; Handling crops on land not eligible for compensation; At the same time, continue to direct cases where houses and structures in the safety corridor have not been relocated or demolished according to regulations. RELATED NEWSEVNNPT and EVNNPC coordinate to accelerate power supply projects for Bac Ninh provinceEVNNPT focuses on maintaining national power transmission security during peak heat waves4 500kV North - South circuits provide nearly 20% of electricity output to the North during peak heat wavesLocalities also need to soon resolve problems with compensation mechanisms and policies for agricultural land and affected houses and structures in the 500 line safety corridor kV.EVNNPT also requested contractors to urgently complete grounding work at the remaining locations; NPMB coordinated with Power Transmission Company 1 (PTC1) and contractors to review plans for installing temporary grounding to ensure operating conditions when energized. Construction units need to arrange adequate human resources and equipment to complete electrical items as committed. At the same time, NPMB and PTC1 are required to coordinate to review all acceptance work, especially electrical items; Arrange adequate forces to inspect and accept the route corridor, ensure the quality of the project and necessary conditions for energizing as planned. With not much remaining construction volume, with the determination of the investor, construction units and the coordination of local authorities in removing obstacles on the route corridor, the 500/220 kV Nho Quan-Phu Ly-Thuong Tin line project is entering the sprint phase. Completing and putting the project into operation in the near future will contribute to strengthening power transmission capacity in the Northern region, improving power supply reliability and meeting the socio-economic development needs of localities in the region.
