Thuy dien A Luoi — 170 MW Hydroelectric

The Thủy điện A Lưới power generation facility, with a capacity of 170 MW, ranks as the 95th largest plant out of 326 in Vietnam. It stands out as the 46th largest hydro facility among 230 in the country, reflecting its vital role in harnessing renewable energy to support national goals. Utilizing cutting-edge hydroelectric generation technology, this facility exploits the natural flow of water to produce sustainable energy, contributing significantly to Vietnam’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions. Located in Thua Thien Hue province, Thủy điện A Lưới finds itself in a region rich in hydroelectric resources, sharing the area with other notable plants such as A Luoi (Hydro, 170 MW), Huong Dien (Hydro, 81 MW), and Nhà máy thủy điện Hương Điền (Hydro, 81 MW). This cluster of hydro facilities showcases a robust investment in renewable energy, with the Thủy điện A Lưới contributing an impressive 0.22% to Vietnam’s total capacity of 78,648 MW across 326 plants. Vietnam’s energy profile is predominantly hydroelectric, and this facility plays a crucial role in ensuring a steady power supply amidst growing demand. Operated by Công ty CP Thủy điện Miền Trung, Thủy điện A Lưới has been instrumental since its commissioning in promoting energy independence and sustainability in the region. As Vietnam continues to expand its energy infrastructure, this facility exemplifies the potential for hydro power to not only meet local energy needs but also to drive economic growth through sustainable practices.
