The company has worked with firefighting police and relevant agencies to inspect the power safety and fire prevention of 798 locations, including high-rise buildings, apartments, and dormitories.
In the remaining months, the EVN HCMC will work to ensure sufficient supply to meet the demand of the city’s socio-economic development and the safe operation of its high voltage network, Bao said.
In addition, it will continue to encourage customers to install rooftop photovoltaic systems. The company has completed 18 solar power works connecting to the national grid and about 690 customers have installed the system to date.
