Thai Binh (VNA) – The Thai Binh Thermal Power Company has implemented various measures to respond to COVID-19 pandemic and ensure production at the same time, thus reaching all set targets despite impacts of the pandemic.

Director of the company Ta Trung Kien said that since July, all managers and workers of the company have worked and stayed at the company to minimise the risk of COVID-19 spreading and maintain production.

He stressed that the firm defines the implementation of COVID-19 prevention and control measures as a top priority, because if the pandemic breaks out in the company and forces the lockdown of the entire plant, losses will be extremely heavy.

The company has 335 workers who have received COVID-19 vaccination and regular tests. The firm has built plans for responding to the pandemic and organised a number of rehearsals to ensure all officials, engineers and workers are ready for all possible circumstances.

A representative from the company’s employees said that although they have to live far away from their family, they feel secure to work, as along with ensuring the payment of salary, allowances and bonus, the management and the Trade Union of the company have regularly met and encouraged them. The firm has set up a gym for all workers to do exercise to improve their health conditions and relax for better working performance.

Thanks to its accurate forecast of possible difficulties from the pandemic, right since the end of 2020, the Thai Binh Thermal Power Company has reviewed and made preparations in materials serving production, while purchasing machines and equipment for maintenance, repair and replacement activities.

Along with tightening disciplines in the management and operations of the plant, the firm has strictly controlled all economic and technical indications. Managerial officials of the firm have given regular directions to officials, engineers and workers to keep a close watch on all working shifts and turbines, maintaining hygiene and conduct regular maintenance on equipment, thus discovering failures and incident for timely fixing.

This year, the Thai Binh Thermal Power Company is assigned by the Vietnam Electricity (EVN) to generate 3.58 billion kWh of electricity for the national grid. Thanks to its effective measures to prevent COVID-19 and maintain safe production, in the first seven months of 2021, the firm recorded a power output of 2.435 billion kWh, and a revenue of over 3 trillion VND (131.7 million USD), fulfilling 68 percent of the goal set for the whole year.

The company’s director said that in the rest of the year, the company will strive to produce 1.272 billion kWh of electricity to push total production in the whole year to 3.7 billion kWh, exceeding the targets assigned by the EVN. It aims to pay nearly 300 billion VND (13.16 million USD) to the State budget in the year, added Kien.

In order to complete the targets, the Board of Directors of the company is focusing on directing officials, technicians and workers to strictly abide by COVID-19 prevention and control measures, while maintaining effective production, and coordinating with the EVN Maintenance Service Centre to fix all problems and breakdowns, shortening time spent on maintenance and repairing activities, thus maintaining continuous operation of all turbines in a stable, reliable and effective manner.

Kien said that the company’s Board of Directors and Trade Union have also encouraged officials, technicians and workers to improve their sense of responsibility, thus actively contributing to the firm’s success in implementing the “dual targets”.

Run by the Vietnam Electricity, the Thai Binh Thermal Power Company was put into commercial operation in April 2018, with two turbines having combined installation capacity of 600MW. The plant provides electricity to localities in the Red River delta and enhance the safety and stability for the whole electricity system in the region./.
