Starting the expanded Da Nhim hydropower project
Attending and issuing an order to start the project, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai highly appreciated that the project contributes to the implementation of the power development task one step ahead to meet the requirements of socio-economic development and ensure national security and defense in the context of international economic integration, basically turning our country into a modern-oriented industrial country by 2020.
The Deputy Prime Minister also emphasized that although the added output value is not large, the biggest meaning of the project is to utilize resources by limiting excess discharge, thereby increasing the overall efficiency of Da Nhim Hydropower Plant in the context of The scene of primary energy sources for our country's electricity generation is increasingly difficult. At the same time, the project also ensures the regulation and efficient use of water for irrigation and domestic use in Ninh Thuan province, which is always facing drought difficulties.
In order for the project to be implemented effectively and safely, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai asked the investor - Da Nhim Hydropower Joint Stock Company - Ham Thuan - Da Mi to ensure the operation of the Da Nhim hydropower plant. Current safe, efficient; closely coordinating with contractors, implementing the construction and expansion of the factory in accordance with the current regulations; ensuring labor safety and complying with commitments in the signed contracts between contractors and investors; ensuring the schedule of putting the unit into operation on schedule with the highest quality. Ensuring the environment during the construction process, the process of putting the work in operation needs to be paid attention and attention regularly.

The current Da Nhim hydropower plant was put into operation on January 15, 1964, with the main task of producing electricity with an average annual output of about 1 billion kWh / year, in addition to providing water for Ninh Thuan province annually is 550 million m3 / year.
Over 50 years of management, operation, and operation, the plant has actively contributed to the power supply for the socio-economic development of the country in general and especially the stable water supply for Ninh province. Prosperous development in particular.
In order to further promote the efficiency of the current Da Nhim Hydropower Plant, the Prime Minister has agreed to the policy of developing the plant expansion project in Power Plan VII with the aim of making the most of the flow. flow through limiting the annual excess discharge through the spillway, increasing the power capacity for the power system, serving the safe and efficient operation of the electricity system at peak hours; maintain stable water supply for agricultural production and daily life of the people in the downstream area of the plant.
The scale of the expansion project is an 80 MW unit, when put into operation, will increase the overall output of Da Nhim Hydropower Plant by 100 million kWh / year. It is expected that the expansion project will be completed and put into operation in the first quarter of 2018.
The expansion project continues to receive capital support from the Government of Japan through Japan International Cooperation Organization (JICA).
Total investment of the project is 1,952 billion VND, of which ODA loan from JICA is 85%; the rest (15%) is the reciprocal capital of the investor.
On the same day, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai inspected and reviewed the planning and construction of the Tan My irrigation reservoir project and the Bac Ai energy storage project. These are two projects of particular importance in the water regulation in the South Central Coast and the Central Highlands as well as closely related to the nuclear power project of Ninh Thuan./.
