The project will be divided into two phases.

In the 2nd phase, another plant with a capacity of 2,000MW using IGCC technology will be constructed and put into commercial operation in 2030.
Coal imported from Australia, Russia and Indonesia and domestic coal will be used for electricity generation.
J-Power has committed to use state-of-art technologies to protect the environment and implement measures to prevent air, water and noise pollution.
Dang Ngoc Dung, vice chairman of QuangNgai provincial People’s Committee, has asked the investor to give specific suggestions concerning the use of land, total investment capital, the number of workers and environment protection commitments.
