The third power generation unit of the second phase of the Nam Ou River Cascade Hydropower Project in Laos was successfully connected to the grid for power generation on July 17.
The grid connection was witnessed by the working group of the Ministry of Energy and Mines of Laos, and Electricite du Laos.
The working group members expressed their appreciation for the realization of grid-connected power generation goals for units 2 and 3 of the power station within two months.
They said the efficient commissioning of the project for power generation eased local power supply shortages and promoted local economic and social development.
In order to complete the construction of the second phase of the project, the hydropower station company coordinated epidemic prevention and control measures with project production and construction tasks. This has ensured the quality and efficiency of major cooperation projects between China and Laos.
It has overcome many difficulties in terms of delayed access to equipment and materials, technical support and shortages of factory service personnel affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, and has utilized the advantages of POWERCHINA's integration of the entire industrial chain and the management and control of project construction.
