The TWPC Project is classified as nearshore and turbines will be in an intertidal water depth of  of approximately 1.5 to 7 meters. The turbines will be installed on reinforced onshore gravity foundations that are raised above sea level on multi-pile structures and connected to shore with link bridges that carry onshore power cables and facilitate easy access to the turbines for operation and maintenance purposes.

The main components of the TWPC Project are: 

     • 12 wind turbines in the nearshore area and 110kV project substation and administration building in Truong Long Hoa commune, Duyen Hai town, Tra Vinh province.     

     • 20 km 110 kv power line from the project substation to the existing 110kV Duyen Tra substation. The transmission line passes through five communes: Truong Long Hoa, Dan Thanh and Long Toan in Duyen Hai Town, and Long Khanh and Ngu Lac in Duyen Hai District. 

Clean renewable energy generated by the TWPC Project will be transmitted to the grid and sold to EVN under a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).
