Recently, the Lao government and China General Nuclear Power Technology Co., Ltd. successfully signed a photovoltaic sector development agreement for the second phase of the wind and solar project of the Northern Laos Interconnection Clean Energy Base in Vientiane, marking a solid step forward between China and Laos in the field of new energy cooperation.

This agreement focuses on the three provinces of Oudomxay, Phongsaly and Luang Namtha in northern Laos, aiming to create a green and clean energy base through the integrated construction of wind, photovoltaic and water storage. Following the smooth progress of the first phase of the 1,000MW photovoltaic project in Oudomxay Province, the two parties will work together to promote the second phase of the 580MW photovoltaic project in Luang Namtha Province and the 420MW photovoltaic project in Oudomxay Province to further expand the scale of cooperation and deepen energy cooperation.
