Will this be the opening shot for hundreds of trillions of dong to pour into Vietnam's seas in the next decade?

Quang Ninh has just officially approved the investment policy of Quang Ninh 4 Wind Power Plant project in Co To special zone. This is the province's first offshore wind power project, marking a strategic shift from coal mining to a green energy economy.

With a total investment capital of more than 2,364 billion VND, design capacity of 50 MW, the project not only generates clean electricity but also opens a new chapter for the marine economy, supporting industries and renewable energy supply chain in Vietnam.

Why is this project especially important?

Co To is an area with stable wind speed, low population density and strategic location on the Gulf of Tonkin. Offshore wind power here helps take advantage of almost limitless natural resources.

⚡ An offshore turbine can be as tall as a 50-story building.
⚡ Does not consume fossil fuels.
⚡ Does not emit CO₂ during operation.
⚡ Can operate continuously for 25 to 30 years.

Vietnam is entering the offshore wind power race

According to national energy strategies, offshore wind power will play an important role in the net zero emissions target by 2050. Quang Ninh is becoming one of the pioneering localities along with Binh Thuan, Bac Lieu and Soc Trang.

Conclusion

The decision to approve the first offshore wind power project in Co To is not only an investment decision worth VND 2,364 billion, but also a signal that Vietnam is shifting strongly to a green, clean and sustainable economy.is sustainable.

If a series of similar projects are implemented, Quang Ninh can completely become the new clean energy capital of the North.
