THANH HÓA - Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính on June 22 inspected the 500kV Circuit-3 Quảng Trạch-Phố Nối power transmission line project's section crossing the central province of Thanh Hóa.
Spanning from Quảng Trạch in the central province of Quảng Bình to Phố Nối in northern Hưng Yên Province, the project has a total length of about 519km, and its total investment is over VNĐ22.3 trillion (US$876 million).
It includes four component projects, namely Quảng Trạch - Quỳnh Lưu, Quỳnh Lưu - Thanh Hóa, Thanh Hóa - Nam Định 1 Thermal Power Plant, and Nam Định 1 Thermal Power Plant - Phố Nối. Construction on these component projects started in October 2023 and January 2024.
The Prime Minister has directed to complete the project before June 30, 2024. However, currently there are still some difficulties affecting the progress.
