Speaking at the opening of the conference, Standing Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Binh Thuan province Phan Van Dang said that with the advantage of having a coastline of 192km long, a sea area of more than 20,200 km2, favorable climate conditions. , Binh Thuan is considered a locality with the highest wind energy potential in the country, the average number of wind hours is higher than the average number of hours in the south, the wind speed is high and stable, very suitable. suitable and favorable for developing offshore wind power.
Vice Chairman Phan Van Dang affirmed the province’s determination to create a favorable environment for investors in the field of offshore wind power.
Danish Ambassador to Vietnam Nicolai Prytz spoke at the conference
Speaking at the conference, Mr. Nicolai Prytz, Ambassador of Denmark to Vietnam highly appreciated the determination of Binh Thuan province and said that, as a pioneer and world leader in offshore wind energy from In 1991, Denmark was eager to share its experiences to support Binh Thuan province in particular and Vietnam in general to successfully create the offshore wind power industry.
Presenting a presentation at the conference, the representative of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment of Binh Thuan province said that implementing the Strategy for sustainable development of Vietnam’s marine economy until 2030, with a vision to 2045 in the province, Binh Thuan will focus on infrastructure investment to attract investment and develop renewable energy projects in the province, especially offshore wind power to turn Binh Thuan into a center for renewable energy production and clean energy of the South Central Coast region. Prepare necessary resources to participate in developing support services for activities of the renewable energy industry.
Mr. Vo Van Hoa, Director of Binh Thuan Department of Industry and Trade presented a presentation on the development orientation of offshore wind power in Binh Thuan province
Director of Binh Thuan Department of Industry and Trade Vo Van Hoa said that about the offshore wind power development orientation of Binh Thuan province, the Resolution of the 14th Provincial Party Congress identified the renewable energy industry and processing as one of Three important pillars are focused and prioritized for development in the 2020-2025 term.
Power Plan VIII approved by the Prime Minister is the initial and very important legal basis. Regarding the field of offshore wind power, Power Plan VIII has determined that by 2030, the offshore wind power capacity serving the country’s electricity needs will reach about 6,000 MW. However, Power Plan VIII currently does not have a specific list of offshore wind power projects in each province and centrally run city.
Binh Thuan has issued official dispatches and reports, proposing that the Ministry of Industry and Trade consider including in the implementation plan of Power Planning VIII projects, source works, and power grids, especially external wind power projects. offshore in the province to report to the Prime Minister for consideration and priority approval of the list of power source project development in the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050 to exploit the advantages and potential of the locality. , contributing to ensuring national energy security.
Mr. Stuart Livesey, representative of CIP Group in Vietnam, presented the La Gan offshore wind power project, in the Tuy Phong sea area.
Mr. Stuart Livesey, representative of CIP Group in Vietnam, General Director of La Gan offshore wind power project, said that Binh Thuan province is one of the areas with the best wind potential in Vietnam, with favorable conditions. The seabed is ideal for installing fixed wind turbine foundations, and has the potential to develop large-scale seaports and power grids to exploit wind energy.
He emphasized that the implementation of the La Gan offshore wind power project, in the waters of Tuy Phong, Binh Thuan, promises to create high-quality job opportunities for workers locally and across the country, bringing opportunities to transfer advanced technologies, develop supply chains, helping the offshore wind power industry in Vietnam grow and seize new opportunities.
