Update of an ESIA and RAP for the Hoa Binh hydropower plant Extension Project
Client : French Development Agency (AFD)
Sectors: Cooperation & development support | Energy
Services: Studies
Client category: Cooperation agencies
Mission:
Hoa Binh is the second largest hydropower project in Vietnam and one of the largest hydropower projects in Southeast Asia. In 2018, the government of Vietnam approved the extension of Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant. Two Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIA) have already been conducted by local consulting firms. While these studies comply with national laws, they do not meet the requirements of international standards. Insuco has been mandated by the AFD to upgrade existing and ongoing studies.
Results:
The following deliverables will be submitted to the Client:
- A desk review of the existing documents;
- An audit of the existing ESIAs;
- An audit of the ongoing Resettlement Action Plan (RAP);
- An ESIA compliant with World Bank environmental and social standards;
- A RAP compliant with World Bank environmental and social standards.
