The wind farm will cover 11.55 hectares in the two communes of Xuan Hai and Xuan Canh in Song Cau Town, with the first-phase capacity of 49.94 megawatts.
The farm will include 11 turbines, with a capacity of 4.54 megawatts each, a substation and a 110kV transmission line to connect with the national grid.
The project is expected to be completed and put into service by no later than June 2021.
With a long coastline of 189 kilometres and average wind speeds of 5-7 metres per second, Phu Yen Province possesses great potential for wind power development.
According to a renewable energy scheme by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Phu Yen’s wind power potential is estimated at 475 kWh per square metre at an altitude of 65 metres.
