10 April 2023 – Monsoon Wind is one of the key projects in the Vietnamese government’s electricity development plan. It is expected to alleviate the electricity supply-demand challenges in Vietnam, while the country pushes through with their decarbonization goal.

The project aims to help strengthen the connectivity in the ASEAN region through the provision of cross-border electricity sales. The Lao government will benefit from the project through revenue from royalty fees and other sources based on the Concession Agreement. The project will also bring green energy jobs with the construction of the 600 MW wind power and during its operation. The project expects to achieve commercial operations before the end of 2025.
