Top executives from EVN Ho Chi Minh City (one of the largest electricity providers in Vietnam) visit Survalent to strengthen partnership and receive 2024 Industry Leadership Award.

BRAMPTON, ON, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Survalent had the honor of welcoming a delegation of power executives from EVN Ho Chi Minh City (EVNHCMC), one of the largest electricity providers in Vietnam, to its global headquarters on October 8, 2024. The visit marked a pivotal step forward in the partnership between Survalent and EVNHCMC, driving forward the modernization and optimization of the power grid in Ho Chi Minh City.

“We are proud to celebrate EVNHCMC’s remarkable accomplishments,” said Steve Mueller, CEO of Survalent. “Their use of SurvalentONE FLISR and SCADA systems has significantly improved the reliability of their grid, and we are excited to continue our partnership on future projects.”

EVNHCMC and Survalent have previously collaborated on deploying Fault Location, Isolation, and Service Restoration (FLISR) technology to EVNHCMC’s 872 feeders, which yielded immediate, substantial results. In the first year of running SurvalentONE FLISR, EVNHCMC reduced their System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) by 95% and their System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI) by 93%, earning them a spot among the top 50 power companies on Smart Grid Benchmarking Results 2022.

EVNHCMC’s achievements have been recognized with numerous awards, including a perfect score of 4 out of 4 in grid monitoring and control by the Singapore Power Grid’s Smart Grid Index in 2022, the prestigious “Digital Enterprise” certification from the Vietnamese Ministry of Information and Communications, and POWER magazine’s “2024 Smart Grid Award” for their Distribution Automation System (DAS) project. Additionally, EVNHCMC won the “Smart Grid Project of the Year” award at Enlit Asia in both 2023 and 2024, demonstrating their continued innovation and excellence in smart grid development.

During the visit, EVNHCMC representatives provided an update on their success with SurvalentONE SCADA and SurvalentONE FLISR which has been fully operational across their entire distribution network since 2021. The system supports 5 independent regions with 100,000 datapoints and connects to 12 substations at 220kV, 62 substations at 110kV, and over 3,000 medium voltage switching devices. EVNHCMC has been able to remotely operate all 22kV circuit breakers, monitor the grid in real-time, and handle 91% of the incidents on their 22kV grid through automation in 2023.

The delegation also discussed future plans to expand the SCADA and FLISR systems, aiming to enhance the resiliency and efficiency of the power network further. It’s critical that EVNHCMC deliver high-quality, reliable power to support the city’s citizens, to attract and retain commercial and industrial enterprises to the city, and to uphold electricity’s important role in economic, social, and political stability.

To commemorate EVNHCMC’s outstanding achievements in grid modernization and reliability, Survalent presented them with the Survalent 2024 Industry Leadership Award. This award recognizes select utilities that demonstrate leading-edge utility processes, and extraordinary commitment to maximum reliability, resiliency, and to future grid advancements.

“We are proud to celebrate EVNHCMC’s remarkable accomplishments,” said Steve Mueller, CEO of Survalent. “Their use of SurvalentONE FLISR and SCADA systems has significantly improved the reliability of their grid, and we are excited to continue our partnership on future projects to meet Ho Chi Minh City’s evolving energy needs.”

Survalent looks forward to building on this strong foundation, continuing to support EVNHCMC in their pursuit of innovation and excellence in power grid modernization.
