Specifically:

In June 2021, the electricity produced and imported of the whole system reached 23.9 billion kWh, an increase of 8.6% compared to June 2020. The average power output reached 796.7 million kWh/day, of which the largest daily output reached 880.3 million kWh (June 1), the largest load capacity reached 42,146 MW (June 21). ).

Accumulated in the first 6 months of 2021, the electricity output produced and imported in the whole system reached 128.51 billion kWh, up 7.4% over the same period in 2020; in which the proportion of mobilized output of some main types of power sources to the total electricity output of the whole system is as follows:

+ Mobilized hydropower reached 30.46 billion kWh, accounting for 23.7%.

+ Mobilized coal-fired thermal power reached 66.67 billion kWh, accounting for 51.9%.

+ Mobilized gas turbines reached 15.66 billion kWh, accounting for 12.2%.

+ Renewable energy (wind power, solar power, biomass power) mobilized reached 14.69 billion kWh, accounting for 11.4%.

+ Imported electricity reached 624 million kWh, accounting for 0.5%.

+ Mobilized oil thermal power is insignificant, reaching 02 million kWh.

In the first 6 months of 2021, the electricity produced by EVN and Power Generation Corporations (including joint stock companies) reached 64.39 billion kWh, accounting for 50.11% of the electricity production of the whole system. In which, the total electricity output of power plants owned by EVN with 100% capital (excluding EVNGENCO3 and joint stock companies) reached 37.63 billion kWh, accounting for 29.28%.

The commercial electricity output of EVN in the first 6 months is estimated at 111.75 billion kWh, up 8.36% over the same period last year.

Power transmission output in June 2021 reached 18.37 billion kWh, the transmission trend is mainly in the direction of Central – North and Central – South. Accumulated in the first 6 months of 2021, transmission power output reached 102.1 billion kWh, up 1.9% over the same period last year.
