Laos Wind Power Project Plans to Transmit 1,000 MW to Vietnam

en.Wedoany.com Reported - The CIP-FECON consortium has proposed evaluating the construction of a 1,000 MW onshore wind power project in Savannakhet Province, Laos, with the goal of transmitting electricity to Vietnam between 2026 and 2028. This Laos wind power project is still in the feasibility assessment and preliminary advancement stage, with subsequent research focusing on project procedures, cross-border power transmission mechanisms, and supporting infrastructure.

The CIP-FECON consortium involves Denmark's Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Vietnam's FECON-related parties. Public information shows that CIP currently manages approximately $40 billion in green energy investment funds, covering offshore wind, onshore wind, solar power, and energy storage. In addition to the Laos wind power project, the consortium is also discussing forming a renewable energy portfolio of approximately 2.5 GW by 2030, encompassing wind power, photovoltaics, and related infrastructure in both Vietnam and Laos.

If this Laos wind power project continues to advance, it will create new project reserves targeting Vietnam's electricity demand and regional cross-border power cooperation. Subsequent work for the project includes completing feasibility studies, procedural approvals, transmission access, and commercial arrangements. As the 1,000 MW onshore wind power plan enters the research phase, the Laos wind power project will also drive potential demand for wind turbines, towers, substations, transmission lines, and energy storage systems.
