Safe and continual supply of electricity
Mr. Le Minh Quoc Viet, Director of Binh Duong Power Company, said that in the first 9 months of 2024, the socio-economic situation in the province has strongly recovered after the Covid-19 pandemic, leading to a high increase in electricity demand (commercial electricity output increased by 14.1% compared to the same period in 2023). In addition, the El Nino phenomenon has caused prolonged heatwaves across a wide area during the dry months, leading to increased demand for electricity for cooling. However, thanks to the deep investment in the power grid in recent years and the application of flexible grid operation methods, the company always ensures safe and continuous electricity supply, making significant contributions to the socio-economic development of the province.
In addition to providing electricity, Binh Duong Power Company also focuses on improving the quality of electricity and service for customers. In recent years, Southern Power Corporation (EVNSPC) has invested a large amount of capital in constructing and repairing power facilities in Binh Duong province. EVNSPC is also investing in 37 110kV grid projects to meet the electricity supply needs of the area, including Binh Duong province. In 2024, EVNSPC assigned Binh Duong Power Company to invest in upgrading 70 power grid projects and repairing 42 projects. In addition, the National Power Transmission Corporation plans to invest in 6 220kV~500kV power grid projects in the province.

Up to now, the proportion of electronic transactions, electricity payment through banks and intermediary methods has reached 100%. The application of online forms helps save time, minimize administrative procedures, and ensure transparency and safety in transactions. This form has received positive feedback from customers and contributed to improving the efficiency of Binh Duong Power Company's operations.
