Mitsubishi Power, a power solutions business of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), has received a contract, in collaboration with Doosan Enerbility Co., to provide two state-of-the-art M701JAC gas turbines for the 1,155MW O Mon 4 Gas Turbine Combined Cycle (GTCC) Power Plant in South Vietnam.
The contract was inked in August 2025, the first export of JAC turbines to Vietnam. The turbines are highly efficient at over 64 percent in combined cycle operation and have shown tried-and-tested reliability with over 3 million operating hours worldwide.
Key Highlights:
"This project is a milestone in Vietnam's power development, and we are privileged to offer our advanced JAC gas turbines to this flagship power plant. We are determined to deliver world-leading reliability and performance, hand-in-hand with our partners." stated Akihiro Ondo, CEO and Managing Director of Mitsubishi Power Asia Pacific.
Conceived by Vietnam's state-run Petrovietnam, O Mon 4 is being constructed by South Korea's Doosan Enerbility-led EPC consortium and Vietnam's Power Engineering Consulting Joint Stock Company 2 (PECC2). In the late August 2025 groundbreaking took place in Can Tho, with the project due for completion in 2028.

The plant will be an important contributor to Vietnam's Power Development Plan VIII (PDP8), as it will diversify the energy mix, decrease dependence on coal, and assist the nation in achieving its net-zero by 2050 goal. When completed, it will increase Petrovietnam's installed capacity to more than 9,300MW—about 10 percent of the national grid.
Mitsubishi Power's participation reaffirms its role in promoting sustainable development and energy security in Vietnam and the Asia Pacific region.
