Hanoi (VNA) – The Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) said that the group fixed problems and resumed power supply to the central provinces of Nghe An and Thua Thien-Hue.
In Ha Tinh province, only one commune in Huong Khe district and one commune in Vu Quang district have yet to be reconnected to the grid.
Meanwhile, in Quang Binh province, the EVN Quang Binh restored all main medium-voltage lines and resupplied electricity for Dong Hoi city and Quang Ninh and Minh Hoa districts.
Electricity has not returned to its normal level in Le Thuy, Bo Trach, Quang Trach and Tuyen Hoa districts, which are still inundated.
