Wind power in Vietnam: 1st wind farm in central province

Funded by the Vietnam Renewable Energies JSC and with a capital of 2 trillion VND (959,000 U.S. dollars), the wind farm has a total of 80 wind turbines, 20 of which now in operation can produce 30 MW of electricity.

Binh Thuan, some 1,150 km south of the Vietnamese capital Hanoi, has a huge potential for developing wind energy. To date, the local authorities have granted licenses to 13 investors to build 16 additional wind power mills with a combined capacity of 1,240 MW.
