Theun-Hinboun Hydropower

The main objective of the Project was to support economic growth in the Lao People's Democratic Republic (the Lao PDR) by enhancing foreign exchange earnings through the export of electric power to Thailand. The Project represented a new policy direction in the power subsector, which had been initiated through discussions with the Asian Development Bank (ADB). It was the first time that the Government of the Lao PDR formed a joint venture (JV) with the private sector for financing, constructing and operating a power plant.
