Two more hydropower plants have joined national grid. These plants would add about 1.3 billion kWh of electricity output for Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) each year.

EVN has recently said that the first generator of An Khe-Ka Nak hydropower plant successfully joined the national grid on June 11.
Previously, in the morning of the same day (June 11), the second generator (with a capacity of 90MW) of Dong Nai 3 hydropower plant also joined the national grid successfully, making a meaningful contribution in ensuring the electricity supply during this rush dry season.

An Khe-Ka Nak hydropower plant has an estimated capacity of 173 MW with an average electricity output of 701.5 million kWh yearly.
Dong Nai 3 hydropower plant also invested by EVN is one of four existing projects on Dong Nai River including Dai Ninh, Srok Phu Mieng, Dong Nai 3 and Dong Nai 4. The plant with two generators with a total designed capacity of 180 MW will provide an average electricity output of 607 million kWh per year.
