Erex held a groundbreaking ceremony for its biomass plants in Yen Bai and Tuyen Quang, Vietnam, on October 4. These plants have been designated as priority projects under Vietnam’s 8th National Power Development Plan, with their implementation receiving approval in April. Each facility will have a generation capacity of 50 MW and will utilize approximately 500,000 tons of wood residue annually, sourced from Northern Vietnam.
