(HBO) – The Hoa Binh Power Company (PC Hoa Binh) under the Electricity of Vietnam has for years been striving to improve its supply quality through the application of a series of measures to lower power outage duration and meet customers’ demand.
PC Hoa Binh steps up application of line insulator
washing, an important measure to improve the reliability of power supply.
Nguyen The Hung, vice director of the company, said it has
taken many measures to improve its supply reliability.
They include completing a safe and flexible grid structure,
developing a year-long plan for cutting off electricity, building a reasonable
operating method, and reducing the duration of power outage for maintenance;
and applying line insulator washing.
In addition, the company has also employed heat cameras and
drones; boosted human resources training; and launched communications
activities to raise public awareness on power safety.
As a result, PC Hoa Binh’s System Average Interruption Duration
Index (SAIDI) was lowered from 2,762.9 in 2020 to 1,634.5 in 2021, and its
System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI), from 26.3 to 16.14 in the
period.
Hung also pointed to a number of shortcomings found in the
company’s operations. As Hoa Binh is a mountainous province, the power grid in
some local areas runs on difficult terrain with unfavourable traffic. When an
incident occurs there, it might take a long time to check and handle.
Meanwhile, many electricity technologies applied in Hoa Binh have been
outdated, while the local level of automation remains low.
The
vice director said his company plans to build an action plan and a mechanism
for grid operation for 2023 t
Hoa Binh province’s economy posted an impressive Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) growth rate of 12.67% in the first quarter of 2025, representing a 12.76% year-on-year increase, the highest rate recorded since the beginning of the current tenure, according to the provincial Statistics Office. This robust growth reflects years of strategic groundwork and sets a strong foundation for the province’s annual growth target of over 10%.
With a focus on cash crop farming with science - technology application and brand building, Lac Thuy district is gradually increasing production value, improving people's life quality, and laying the foundation for sustainable socio-economic development.
In recent years, the economic development model "Hoa Binh Earthworm Farm” run by Mr. Bui Van Dang in Co Giua Hamlet, My Thanh Commune (Lac Son district) has not only brought stable economic value but it is also environmentally friendly, helping to protect and reduce pollution, contributing to the construction of a green and sustainable agriculture.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
