Vietnam May Face 1 Billion KWh Power Shortage In Mar-June-Report

Vietnam is likely to face a power shortage from March to June as its major gas-fired plants aren’t getting enough fuel for generation, said the Tuoi Tre newspaper, citing Vietnam Electricity Group, or EVN.
The country will lack 1.07 billion kilowatt-hours in these months if EVN can’t ensure sufficient gas supplies for its three plants – Ca Mau 1, Ca Mau 2 and Nhon Trach 1 – in the southern region, the state newspaper said.
State-run EVN said the plants have been generating only more than 50% of their desired output since the beginning of the year due to technical problems and the shortage.
