Hanoi (VNA) - PetroVietnam Power Corporation (PV Power) has supplied 200 billion kWh to the national grid since it started operations 13 years ago, confirming its position as the top power supplier in the country.

PV Power currently operates seven power plants across the country with a total capacity of 4,205 MW. They include coal-fired and gas-fired power, and hydropower projects.

In recent years, with safe and efficient operations, PV Power has generated over 21 billion kWh for the national grid per year.

According to PV Power Deputy General Director Nguyen Duy Giang, with domestic fossil energy being increasingly exhausted and a decline in potential for hydroelectric development, PV Power has determined that its development strategy must be green, clean and sustainable.

Apart from power projects using fuel from the Ca Voi Xanh (Blue Whale) field, PV Power is focusing on developing thermal power plants using imported liquefied natural gas (LNG), along with renewable energy projects./.
