Location
The project is located in the Duyên Hải Power Generation Complex, in the Duyên Hải district of Trà Vinh province.[1] The map below shows the location as identified in Wikimapia.[2]
Background
The planned power plant complex would be made up of three separate coal-fired power plants: Duyên Hải 1, 2, and 3.
The 1,245-MW Duyên Hải 1 is a project of Vietnam Electricity Group (the successor company of the state-owned power monopoly) and the Chinese Dongfeng Group, and will cost $1.6 billion. Duyên Hải 1 broke ground in Sept. 2010.[3] The two 622-MW units are both expected to enter service in July 2015.[4]
The 1,200-MW Duyên Hải 2 is a project of the Malaysian company Teknik Janakuasa, a subsidiary of the MMC Corporation Berhad, and will cost $1.5 billion.[5] In April 2011, Janakuasa signed Chinese company Huadian Engineering to take the lead in construction.[6] In 2009, Janakuasa stated that construction would begin in 2010-11, and the plant would be completed in 2014; there has not been any news on the plant since 2011, however, and it is unclear whether or not the plant is being constructed currently.
The 1,245-MW Duyên Hải 3 is a project of a consortium of Chinese companies: Chengda Engineering, Dongfang Electric Corporation, the Southwest Electric Power Design Institute (SWEPDI) (a subsidiary of the China Energy Engineering Group), and Zhejiang Electric Power Construction. The project will cost $1.5 billion, and broke ground in Sept. 2010. The plant is slated to begin operation in early 2015.[7]
In April 2013, construction began on a $280 million coal seaport for the power complex. The seaport is being built by China Communications Construction, and is expected to be completed in late 2015; it will be capable of handling 12 million tons of coal per year for consumption at the complex's three power plants.[8]
News reports have stated that the complex will have a power generating capacity of 4,400 MW; however, the three plants listed total 3,690 MW. It is unclear where the remaining 710 MW would come from.
