The proposed projects are located in the communes of Ta Nang and Da Quyn in Duc Trong District, with a planned capacity of 100MW each.
As per the proposal, the corporation will survey two areas covering a total of over 6,000 hectares in the mountainous area bordering Lam Dong and Binh Thuan provinces, where average wind speeds are stable, typically ranging from seven to nine meters per second. Moreover, Envision Energy plans to build more than 33 kilometers of a 220kV transmission line to connect the projects to Duc Trong substation.
The Central Highlands province has significant potential for wind energy development. However, the whole province currently has only one operational wind power plant, located in Cau Dat, Truong Tho Hamlet, Xuan Truong Commune, Da Lat City.
This wind power plant began construction in 2019 having a total investment capital of US$57 million and a capacity of 30MW with 20 wind turbines.
