Nam Thong 1&2 Dams project is located near Ban Om Anuvong in Xaysomboun Province on the last 15 km of the Nam Thong river before it merges into the Nam Ngiep river near the town of Vieng Thong along National Road 1D.

Nam Thong 1&2 project has a spread-out cascade-style layout with the mid-point Dam 1 located at coordinates 19°02'16.8"N 103°20'19.8"E (19.037989, 103.338825) at red marker on satellite image below.

Nam Thong 1&2 HPP is apparently being developed by Namthong Group or AQA Group. A web page has the project owner as Namthong Hydropower 1&2 Co. Ltd.

It seems that Suriyant Bert Phontha (Thai) has an ownership interest or is the sole owner.

From the image below of the generators it seems as if the total output from these two units would be less than 10 MW.
