Laos to export electricity to Myanmar, more for Vietnam
Myanmar hopes to import electricity from Laos at an installed capacity of about 300 megawatts (MW) in the near future while the exports to Vietnam may be increased in the next few months.
“The Myanmar government proposed this project to Laos about two months ago,” Deputy Minister of Energy and Mines Mr Viraphonh Viravong told Vientiane Times on 2 February.
“Currently we are studying the greater detail of the project, including the transmission lines and where the electricity will be used,” Mr Viraphonh said.
