Taiwan’s largest EPC contractor CTCI has been awarded an EPCC contract for Van Phong-1 1,320MW Thermal Power Plant BOT Project in Vietnam in cooperation with IHI Corporation, Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation, and Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction Co., Ltd as consortium. The contract award marks a milestone for the company to execute large-scale power plant in Vietnam and paves its way to bid for similar projects in the future.



The project, located in Van Phong Economic Zone, Khanh Hoa Province in the southern part of Vietnam, comprises two supercritical coal-fired boilers (660 MW each) targeted to be commercially operated in 2023 to mitigate power shortage in southern Vietnam. The owner, Sumitomo Corporation, a Japanese trading house, established Van Phong Power Company Limited (VPCL) as a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) company and signed a 25-year BOT Contract and Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Ministry of Industry and Trade and Vietnam Electricity (EVN) in 2018.

Back in 2001, CTCI has established CIMAS Engineering Co., Ltd. in Vietnam for development of local business opportunities. “While the project contributes a share of fostering Vietnam’s economic development by addressing challenges faced locally, it further consolidates CTCI’s position in Vietnam market” says CTCI Group Chairman John T.
