Background
In Dec. 2013, Nam Định provincial authorities said they would support the construction of a 2,400-MW coal plant by the Korean Taekwang Vina Company, a subsidiary of the Taekwang Group. The plant would cost $4.5 billion, and is slated to begin construction in 2014; two units, with 1,200 MW capacity, would come online in 2017, and the other two would come online in 2021.[1] Site preparation work has begun.
In June 2014, Taekwang signed a joint agreement with Saudi company First National Operation & Maintenance Co. (NOMAC), a subsidiary of ACWA Power, to build the first 1,200-MW, $2 billion phase of the plant. POSCO Engineering & Construction was selected as the preferred engineering, procurement, & construction (EPC) bidder.[2][3]
