Power Generation Corporation-1, a subsidiary of Vietnam’s state-owned power utility Electricity of Vietnam (EVN), has selected Babcock & Wilcox to design and manufacture a supercritical coal-fired boiler and selective catalytic reduction system (SCR) for the Duyen Hai III extension project (Duyen Hai III-3) in the Tra Vinh province of Vietnam. The new unit will have a gross power capacity of 688 MW (660 MW net) and is expected to generate 3.9 TWh/year of electricity upon completion. The power plant, worth US$891m, is expected to be commissioned within 40 months (2018).
The Duyen Hai power complex will consist of three main coal-fired power plants: 1,200 MW (2x600 MW) Duyen Hai I, expected to be commissioned in 2015-2016; 1,320 MW Duyen Hai II (2x660 MW), expected in 2019; and 1,880 MW at Duyen Hai III (2x600 MW plus 1x660 MW at the expansion project), expected to be commissioned between 2016 and 2018.
