The project, spanning 74ha in central Quang Tri province, has a designed capacity of 1,500MW.

The People’s Committee of central Quang Tri province has
approved the investment policy of  the Quang Trach III LNG
Power Plant project.

Developed by the Vietnam Electricity (EVN), the project
spans 74 hetares in Phu Trach commune, including nearly 55 ha of land and more than 19 ha of
water surface, with  a designed capacity of 1,500MW.

The project requires an estimated investment capital of VND41.8
trillion ($1.6 billion), comprising 20% equity from EVN and 80% domestic
commercial loans.

The project is part of the Quang Trach Power Center which
includes the Quang Trach I Thermal Power Plant, the Quang Trach II LNG Power

expected to supply around 9.1 billion kWh per year to the national power grid.
