Also attending were former General Secretary Nong Duc Manh, former President Nguyen Minh Triet, former National Assembly Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan; former Standing member of the Secretariat Phan Dien; leaders of ministries, branches, localities, and a number of diplomatic agencies in Vietnam.
This is an important and practical event to welcome the 1st Congress of Hai Phong City Party Committee, term 2025-2030. The Tan Trao Industrial Park infrastructure development investment project, invested by Vinhomes Hai Phong Industrial Park Investment Joint Stock Company, has an area of nearly 227 hectares, located in Kien Hung commune and Nghi Duong commune, with a total capital of more than 4,000 billion VND in phase 1.
Tan Trao Industrial Park will be built in 5 years, from the second quarter of 2025 to the end of the second quarter of 2030. After completion, the industrial park will become a major center of new industry and technology with advanced technical infrastructure, attracting investment in many sectors such as: electricity, electronics, telecommunications, pharmaceuticals, supporting industries, new materials, clean energy industry, renewable energy...

In particular, this place will gather tens of thousands of high-quality human resources from all over the country and internationally. With its scale, location and synchronous development orientation, Tan Trao Industrial Park will be one of the new growth drivers contributing to increasing investment attraction for Hai Phong and becoming a model industrial center of the country.
The Hai Phong LNG Thermal Power Plant construction project is located on the land of Tan Trao Industrial Park, invested by the Vingroup Joint Venture - VinEnergo Energy Joint Stock Company, with an area of nearly 100 hectares and a total capital of more than 178 trillion VND. The project will be built in 5 years and is expected to be put into operation by the end of 2030. The plant will provide about 9.6 billion kWh/year (phase 1) and 19.2 billion kWh/year (phase 2), both meeting the electricity demand for production in the entire Tan Trao Industrial Park and adding a large capacity source to the national grid, supporting the regulation of the grid system and reducing dependence on traditional energy sources.

The plant has a designed capacity of 4,800 MW (phase 1 1,600 MW, phase 2 3,200 MW). This will be the largest thermal power plant in Vietnam - according to the Government's Power Plan VIII and is among the world's leading LNG power plants. Electricity made from LNG has outstanding advantages in protecting the environment when it emits almost no SO₂, no dust and low NOx compared to electricity made from fossil fuels such as coal and oil. The birth of the plant marks Vingroup's strategic step in the clean energy transition process, paving the way for green and sustainable economic development.

Following the success of important investment projects in Hai Phong city, Vingroup's two strategic projects are expected to not only open up new development momentum for Hai Phong and the North, but also affirm its determination to accompany the Government in ensuring energy security, promoting green transition and raising Vietnam's position on the global economic map.

Speaking at the ceremony, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh emphasized that our country is implementing two 100-year strategic goals in solidarity with great difficulty: the international and regional situation is evolving rapidly and unpredictably, so we need to develop in the direction of independence, autonomy, and strategic initiative in politics, economics, culture, national security and defense. To do so, we must strive to develop strongly.
