Science and Technology Applications in Central Vietnam's Power Grid
The Central Power Corporation is integrating automation and robot technologies in substations to cope with energy demand and harsh weather conditions.
To overcome increasing energy demand and severe weather conditions, the Central Power Corporation is integrating technological solutions such as unmanned substations, remote control systems, and inspection robots into its power grid operations.
Technological Transformation in Grid Operations
The application of science and technology in the operation of the power grid across Central Vietnam significantly increases the efficiency and reliability of energy supply. Various technological solutions, from unmanned and remote-controlled substations to monitoring robots, are transforming operational processes.
Implemented in response to extreme weather conditions and rising load demands, these scientific and technological solutions are of vital importance for the sustainability of the power supply in the region.
Holiday Season Assurance
The corporation is taking all measures to guarantee a safe, stable, and uninterrupted electricity supply throughout the September 2 holiday period.
Thanks to the modern systems implemented, it is aimed to minimize potential technical disruptions during the holiday process.
Da Nang and Chi Lang Centers
The Da Nang Power Company successfully operates the Chi Lang 110 kV GIS substation, which utilizes SF6 gas-insulated switchgear technology, occupying less space and reducing personnel requirements.
Thanks to this modern system, a single operations team has achieved the capacity to easily manage five to seven substations simultaneously.
Quang Tri and Hue Applications
Thanks to the SCADA and DMS systems commissioned in Quang Tri province, grid faults can be detected and resolved in as short a time as approximately five minutes.
In the city of Hue, the Phu Vang District Power Company rapidly identifies fault locations using remote control technology and quickly restores the power supply.
Additionally, the Hue Power Corporation has developed an autonomous robot capable of performing periodic inspections at substations to achieve early fault detection.
Future Vision
Ngo Tan Cu, General Director of the Central Power Corporation, emphasized that they will continue to develop and strengthen the energy system in the region in a modern direction.
