Quy Nhon Transmission Line (Phuoc An) FS CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Transmission Efficiency Project (TEP) The Project Development Objective (PDO) for TEP is to support the implementation of an investment programs to increase capacity of Vietnam’s electricity transmission grid, improve efficiency and reliability of electricity services and strengthen the institutional capacity of the National Power Transmission Corporation The direct beneficiary of the project would be Vietnam’s electricity transmission company NPT Indirect beneficiaries would include all segments of population They would benefit from: (i) Improved reliability, which will reduce unserved demand and the number and duration of power outages; and (ii) Increased energy efficiency, which will reduce overall costs and GHG emissions The project would also bring direct temporary benefits for skilled and unskilled workers that would be employed for the construction of the project The proposed project is comprised of the following three components: (i) The Transmission Infrastructure Component; (ii) The Smart Grid Component; and (iii) The Capacity Building and Institutional Strengthening Component  The Transmission Infrastructure Component will finance transmission lines and substations at voltage levels of 220kV and 500kV The investments will target three areas that are key to the overall economic development of Vietnam, namely the Greater Hanoi Area, the Greater Ho Chi Minh City Area and the Mekong Delta Investments at the 500kV level will help increase the transport capacity of the main 500kV trunk system while increasing its reliability Investments at the 220kV level are aimed at increasing the capacity of the supply points to the distribution utilities and improve the reliability of the network that serves these points  The Smart Grid Component will support modernization of monitoring, control, and protection equipment in 500kV and 220kV substations to improve the reliability of the interconnected power system as a whole and of some bulk-supply points in the distribution network Today, 60 percent of the faults in substations are a consequence of faulty operations of monitoring, control, and protection equipment Aided by monitoring and control gear, protection equipment: (i) detects - among other things - the locations and intensity of faults and, based on such information, determines what equipment should be disconnected to protect the system from damage; and (ii) decides when disconnected equipment should be reconnected to ensure that interruptions in the provision of electricity services are minimized  The Capacity Building and Institutional Strengthening Component will contribute to the gradual development of NPT to become an independent transmission company with revenues from the application of cost-of-service regulation in the transmission sector The steps to be supported in this operation include the definition of technical and financial performance indicators, the introduction of enterprise asset management systems and strategies Resettlement Plan 220kV Quang Ngai - Quy Nhon Transmission Line (Phuoc An) FS The Resettlement Plan (RP) of “220kV Quang Ngai – Quy Nhon TL” subproject is established under the Policy Framework of the Transmission Efficiency Project (TEP) 1.2 Subproject Description - Representative of Project Owner: Central Vietnam Power Projects Management Board - Capital investment: 1,400,455,738,703 VND - Capital resource: using construction capital investment and World Bank loan under TEP project, which is mobilized and allocated according to the annual plan by the National Power Transmission Corporation 1.2.1 The subproject’s location The 220kV Quang Ngai - Quy Nhon (Phuoc An) TL will cross through 33 communes/towns in 02 districts and 09 provinces, divided into the following sections: - Section 1: Starting point – G11 with 20,934m in length Starting point will go from the 220kV feeder bay of 220/110kV Quang Ngai substation (under construction), thencrossing over the north - south railway to reach to G1 At G1, the route will turn left and parallel with the proposed 220kV Thuong Kon Tum - Quang Ngai transmission line to G2 At G2, the route will turn left and cross over Highway 24, then create steering angles in order to avoid Pho Phong industrial zone and reduce to cut through residential area in Phong Pho, Pho Nhon communes, Duc Pho district At G10, the route will turn left and pass through moutainous area of Pho Ninh commune to G11which is proposed to place on a low hill in Hoa Pho commune, Duc Pho district The route section’s topographical condition is rather complicated The proposed section from the starting point to G9 mainly goes through land growing rice, crops, eucalyptus and residential area The proposed section from G9 to G11 passes through both mountainous area that has high fluctuation in terrain elevation, and farmland which mainly have eucalyptus, crops, fruit trees, paddy fields, thick forests and residential areas The route section will locate in Mo Duc and Duc Pho districts, Quang Ngai province Objects crossed by the route are as follows: + Crossing over the North-South railway : 01 time + Crossing over National Highway 24 : 01 time + Crossing over inter-commune road : 44 times + Crossing over medium-low voltage line : 13 times + Crossing over telecommunication line : 01 time + Crossing over river : 01 time + Number of households whose land is affected in the ROW: 16 households (10 houses) Resettlement Plan 220kV Quang Ngai -
