The Ca Mau Gas-Power-Fertilizer Complex is a key infrastructure asset in Vietnam's power generation grid, located on the continent of Asia. Designated as a fossil fuel electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 0 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing gas energy resources to generate bulk electricity. Operational management and ownership of the facility are handled by the PetroVietnam, which oversees daily maintenance and grid dispatch integration. The facility was officially connected to the commercial grid in 2014, since which it has maintained regular output, playing a structured role in domestic power supply security. In terms of domestic production capacity within Vietnam, Ca Mau Gas-Power-Fertilizer Complex occupies the #17 position among all operational gas power plants. Its 0 MW capacity represents a 0.00% share of Vietnam's total installed gas generating capacity, which currently stands at 16,209 MW. The largest operational gas installation in Vietnam is the Phú Mỹ Power Plants with an output of 3,915 MW, making the Ca Mau Gas-Power-Fertilizer Complex approximately 1.0 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0000% of Vietnam's aggregate generation capacity of 78,648 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of gas power plants (modeled at 40% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 0 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Vietnam consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 0 homes. By utilizing traditional thermal power processes, the station delivers reliable dispatchable energy to the grid, supporting grid resilience during periods of low renewable resource availability and satisfying industrial base-load demands. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates 9.2360° latitude and 105.0630° longitude. Analysis of local grid infrastructure shows a density of other assets within a 50-kilometer radius. These nearby facilities include Ca Mau 1 (gas, 1,542 MW), representing a cluster of localized power assets. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Vietnam.
