Hòa Bình Hydropower Plant Expansion Inaugurated with 480 MW Capacity in Phú Thọ, Vietnam

The expanded Hòa Bình Hydropower Plant was inaugurated in Phú Thọ Province on December 19, as part of nationwide celebrations for the 14th National Party Congress. The expansion includes two generating units with a total capacity of 480 MW and an investment of over VNĐ9.22 trillion.
