AES, through its subsidiary, AES Mong Duong Power Company Limited (“AES Mong Duong”), has successfully developed and arranged financing for the Mong Duong 2 BOT Power Project of 1,242 MW with total investment of approximately US$2.1 billion. This is Vietnam’s first and one of the largest Build – Operate – Transfer (“BOT”) coal-fired power projects, representing approximately 2.3% of the country’s installed capacity.
In November 2017, AES signed an MOU with PV Gas in the presence of US President Donald J. Trump and Vietnamese President Tran Dai Quang to develop the $1.4-billion Son My LNG Terminal Project. In November 2019, AES also signed an MOU with the Ministry of Industry and Trade to develop a 2.2GW combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power plant under the BOT scheme, which will be located in Binh Thuan Province.
Together, the CCGT and terminal are expected to play a major role in shaping Vietnam’s energy future by diversifying the energy mix with imported LNG and meeting the country’s increasing demand for sustainable and affordable electricity.
