Shanghai Electric Signs VND 3.27 Trillion Environmental Upgrade Contract for Vietnam's Quang Ninh Power Plant

en.Wedoany.com Reported - On October 16, the consortium formed by Shanghai Electric Power Station Engineering Company and Vietnam's Pacific Group officially signed an EPC turnkey contract with Vietnam Quang Ninh Thermal Power Joint Stock Company for the flue gas treatment system upgrade and renovation of the Quang Ninh Power Plant, with a contract value of approximately VND 3.271 trillion. The project is located in Ha Long City, Quang Ninh Province, Vietnam, and involves four 300 MW coal-fired generating units with a total installed capacity of 1,200 MW, with operation scheduled to commence in 2027.

This signing corresponds to Package No. 05 DAKT of the Quang Ninh Power Plant environmental upgrade project, covering engineering design, equipment procurement, construction and installation, and commissioning. The upgrade focuses on upgrading the existing electrostatic precipitator system, constructing a new nitrogen oxide removal system, renovating the existing desulfurization system, upgrading the flue gas induced draft fans with variable frequency drives, as well as renovating related auxiliary equipment and the fire protection system. The project will be implemented in accordance with Vietnam's industrial waste gas technical regulation QCVN 19:2024/BTNMT.

According to the project's technical scheme, the electrostatic precipitator system adopts a combination of high-frequency rectifier transformers and pulse transformers to improve fine particulate matter capture efficiency; the denitrification system adopts selective catalytic reduction technology, while the desulfurization portion involves upgrading the existing main equipment. The renovation works require coordination with the operation of in-service units, equipment manufacturing and supply, and on-site installation. As space is limited in some construction areas, the contractor will organize renovation work by unit and system.

Project funding is raised through the owner's own funds and commercial loans. Following the contract signing, Quang Ninh Thermal Power Joint Stock Company requires the contractor consortium to organize project personnel, equipment, and construction resources, advance design, equipment supply, installation and commissioning, and manage project quality, construction safety, and implementation progress.
