Recognizing the problems in growth of power transmission projects, Trungnam Group made a decision to purchase improving the nationwide facilities of power transmission systems, conserving the expense for other renewable energy investors from minimizing operation capacity. The Group approximated that the decrease of renewable energy plants in the province will certainly not be dealt with at 60 per cent due to poor power transmission, however the number would certainly enhance.

As the top leading capitalist in renewable resource in Ninh Thuan province, Trung Nam significantly suggested a financial investment of the 500KV transformer terminal and also 220/500KV Grid line and the 450 MW Trung Nam Thuan Nam solar energy plant with technical assistances and also inspiration from the provincial people's committee as well as EVN.

Following the proposition, Trungnam Group was accepted as a financier of the 500KV transformer station and also 220KV/500KV power transmission system, in integrated of a 450 MW solar power plant under the document No 831/UBND-KTTH sealed on March 18th, 2020, and the choice for investment proposition No 79/Q Đ-UBND on April 3rd, 2020.

Trungnam Group then acceleratory finished legal treatment and also fund as well as manpower for swiftly commencing the project through days and night working shifts in turning over the project in time.

Treatment a location on 557.09 ha including 17km power transmission line from Phuoc Minh neighborhood in Thuan Nam district to Vinh Tan commune of Tuy Phong district of Ninh Thuan Province, Trungnam Group had dealt with the building and construction timetable from May of 2020 to the 4th quarter of 2020.

With a target of finishing the project in 102 days, Trungnam Group had actually finished land clearance procedure in 45 days with the tough working days from 8,000 labourers and also engineers in turning over the project as proposed time of conclusion.

On the celebration of launch of the project, Chairman of Trungnam Group, Mr. Nguyen Tam Thanh was honourly awarded the Labour Order, Second Class from the State for finishing the solar energy plant and also power transmission project, contributing to the development of renewable resource project in Ninh Thuan Province specifically, as well as to the training course of the country's social republic as well as support.

Trungnam Group additionally significantly added to aid regional community as a function and also obligation of a potential financier in Ninh Thuan Province. The Group, in co-operation with the provincial Fatherland Front, Thuan Nam common people's committee and also rural association of poor patients, had actually given away 102 residences worth 5.1 billion Vietnamese dong to poor homes in the district throughout construction of projects here.
