The Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) has focused on creating a smart electricity network in accordance with Resolution 36a/NQ-CP on building electronic government.
All of the corporation’s units aim to have at least 60% of 220kV and all 110kV transformer stations operating without human surveillance by 2020.
By the end of 2016, 38 out of 704 stations were operating without surveillance and 57 others reduced personnel by half.
Another 200 stations are set to run without surveillance by the end of this year.
EVN said its subsidiaries had installed 7.27 million electronic meters nationwide, 29% of the total number. Of which, 5.71 million can be measured remotely.
