Deputy Director of the company Luong Van Phuong
said a smart grid is a system sending electricity from producers to consumers
able to independently monitor and distribute power to achieve maximum energy
efficiency. All facilities of the grid interact with one another to create a
smart power supply system thanks to the application of modern information and
communications technology. To consumers, the smart grid help monitor their
electricity use in different points of time, thus helping change consumption
behaviours and save money.
Given those advantages, PC Hoa Binh has taken
measures to develop a smart grid since 2018, which is also a move to carry out
the Government’s programme on smart grid development.
He noted that the company has worked to apply
science - technology to all activities, from electricity production to grid
management and operation. Softwares have been created for use in management,
e-invoices applied, old electricity meters replaced with electronic ones, and
related services provided online. Uniform measures have been implemented to
improve the reliability and quality of power supply.
In addition, PC Hoa Binh has invested resources
in developing the grid infrastructure and made use of scientific and
technological advances to modernise the grid operation. Notably, a remote
control centre was put into use in July 2018, helping detect and deal with
electricity incidents faster.
Thanks to the active application of new
technologies, the firm has achieved the set targets, thus ensuring the safety,
stability, and reliability of power supply for consumers. Those attainments
form a prerequisite for PC Hoa Binh to boost the smart grid development in the
years to come./.
