Dak Lak (VNA) – Many
domestic and foreign enterprises have been granted investment licenses to
develop solar and wind power projects in the Central Highlands of Dak Lak,
according to the provincial People’s committee.

tentative capacity of 1,382 MW. The rest of the electricity will be generated
at solar power plants.
The HBRE Wind Power Company Ltd.
has invested 270 million USD to build a wind farm with total capacity of 120 MW
in Dlie Yang Commune, Ea H’leo District.
The farm, the first of its kind
in the Central Highlands, is designed to produce 450 million KW of electricity
per year.
For solar power projects, Vietnam’s
Xuan Thien Company Ltd. will invest 2.2 billion USD in a 2,000MW solar installation
in Ea Sup District.
Long Thanh Infrastructure Development and Investment
