Location
The map below shows the location of Quảng Đông commune, the location where the plant will be built in Quảng Trạch district, Quảng Bình province.
Background
The Quảng Trạch Power Center is a 2,400 megawatt power station, comprising two 1,200 megawatt projects, that is under development in Quảng Bình province. The project is being developed by Vietnam's state oil and gas group PetroVietnam.[1][2]
Construction began on the $1.7 billion, two-unit, 1,200-MW Quảng Trạch-1 in July 2011; Unit 1 is planned to enter into commission by June 2015, and Unit 2 by Dec. 2015.[3][4]
While the two-unit, 1,200-MW Quảng Trạch-2 was originally scheduled to begin construction a year after Quảng Trạch-1, the second-phase plant apparently has yet to find investors. In September 2013, Samsung reported that it was considering taking on the project; in August 2013, Russia's Inter RAO Group reported that it was also interested in the project.[5][6]
