Why it matters
- The 9th-largest oil- and gas-fired power station in Vietnam by capacity (of 31 operating, under-construction and planned oil & gas facilities tracked).
- If completed, it would add 2.25 GW to Vietnam's oil & gas fleet — equivalent to 18% of today's operating oil & gas capacity.
- Gas-fired plants — especially combined-cycle units — provide flexible output that can ramp quickly to balance demand and variable renewables, so their availability is closely tied to gas supply and prices.
