GENCO 1’s 11-month hydropower output surpasses year’s target

Meanwhile, thermal power output approximated 17 billion kWh, equivalent to 70% of the target, the firm said, noting that over 26 billion kWh was produced in total during the period, reaching 86% of the 2017 plan.

It added thanks to the big volume of water flowing into hydropower reservoirs, hydropower output by the end of November was 3 billion kWh higher than the plan for 2017.

In November alone, GENCO 1 turned out over 2.28 billion kWh of electricity, representing 90% of the month’s target and rising by 12% from a year earlier.

The company earned more than VND2.7 billion from electricity sales during the month, including nearly VND2.2 billion thermal power.

It will work to manufacture more than 2.1 billion kWh, including 429 million kWh of hydropower and 1.68 billion kWh of thermal power, in December to fulfil this year’s task, the corporation added.
