Nam Boak (Buak) Dam Hydropower by Hobo Maps - Go to Hydropower Projects Page - - Home

The project is located in Mok District, Xieng Khuang Province northern Lao PDR.

Nam Boak Hydropower project is developed by Lao-based Phongsubthavy Group with intent to sell output to Vietnam when the project is completed.

The project is reportedly still under construction in 2024.

The project is planned to have two Francis turbines with .98 meter runner diameter at 4.446 MW each = 8.89 MW total capacity

The project has head of 125 meters.

Nam Boak Hydropower project is probably located somewhere on the Mok District map below but we aren't sure where.

Various news reports in June 2021 reported that Electricity of Vietnam (EVN) has exchanged power purchase contracts with Phongsubthavy Group for the Nam Yeuang hydropower plant cluster, the Nam Mo 2 project, Nam Tai, Nam Sak, Nam Sao and Nam Chao hydroelectric plants. Since Nam Boak HPP is probably located close to these plants, it might be easy to add output from it to this 220 kV export transmission line.
