To implement effectively, EVN stated that it needs to coordinate closely with ministries, agencies, and localities, particularly in developing a specific roadmap and securing the funding necessary to implement the projects.

Previously, regarding the Ninh Thuan Nuclear Power Plant project, in accordance with Directive 01/CT-TTg issued on January 3, 2025, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh directed the Ministry of Industry and Trade to coordinate with EVN and relevant parties to accelerate the investment progress during the 2025-2030 period.

EVN also proposed that the Government and relevant ministries and agencies provide support to accelerate the progress of key power generation and transmission projects. In the context of the Northern region continuing to face pressure on electricity supply, EVN hopes to be assigned additional new power generation projects and receive support from localities to shorten the preparation and construction time of urgent power infrastructure projects.
