The Ministry of Energy and Mines (MEM) of Laos has awarded Congratulatory Certificates and Labor Medal Pins to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the development of the Nam Ngiep 1 Hydropower Project.
The awards were presented by His Excellency Phoxay Sayasone, Minister of Energy and Mines, during a formal ceremony held at the National Convention Center on March 5th, 2025, Vientiane Capital, Lao PDR.
Among the recipients was Nam Ngiep 1 Power Company Limited (NNP1PC), whose Managing Director, Mr. Takayuki Doi, accepted the award on behalf of the company.
In his remarks, Mr. Doi expressed his deep appreciation for MEM, as well as the authorities of Bolikhamxay and Xaysomboun provinces and local communities, acknowledging their continued support in making the project a success.
He also extended his gratitude to NNP1PC’s shareholders, especially Lao Holding State Enterprise (LHSE), for fostering a strong and productive relationship with government stakeholders.
In total, 43 government officials, including members of LHSE, were recognized for their significant contributions to the project since its early development.
Their efforts have played a crucial role in ensuring the successful completion and smooth operation of the Nam Ngiep 1 hydropower plants.
Looking ahead, NNP1PC remains committed to responsibly managing the project throughout its 27-year concession period and ensuring its long-term operation beyond the handover to the Government of Laos.
As a leading clean energy provider in ASEAN, NNP1PC continues to generate environmentally responsible power, contributing to Laos’ energy future.
