- Vinacomin is increasing production to ensure sufficient domestic coal supply and reduce the risks of an energy shortage.
In 2015, the Group set a consumption plan of 38 million tonnes of coal, including three million tonnes for export, and an output of at least 8.6 billion kWh.
The Group also expanded its production from the outset of this year to meet domestic demand while seeking coal resources for import to fuel power projects and meet domestic demand.
The group also aims to commence operations in two more subordinate factories, the Nhan Co-Dak Nong Alumin Factory and the Cao Bang cast iron and steel production Complex in the second half this year. It also focuses on increasing copper, ferrochrome, zinc, and tin production capacity, among others.
