(Source: petrovietnam.petrotimes.vn) Despite being at the peak of the COVID-19 epidemic, in the early days of this June, Thi Vai LPG filling station (TNTV) of Vung Tau Gas Processing Company (KVT) once again set a new record with 89 tank truck and total LPG export volume is 1,512.47 tons/day, compared to designed capacity of 1,400 tons/day. The diverse operating interface has many potential risks related to the disease, but this “challenge” has been approved by PV GAS Vung Tau Terminal (KCTV) and Vung Tau Gas Processing Company – a member unit of the Corporation. PetroVietnam Gas Corporation (PV GAS) overcame by effectively implementing the “dual goal” of preventing, combating and responding to the epidemic, while maintaining continuous and effective production and business activities. Along with a system of clear and specific procedures and regulations, employees at PV GAS Vung Tau’s warehouses are always aware of their responsibilities in complex disease conditions. The plan to maintain production and business during the new outbreak was activated soon. As a result, Vung Tau Gas Processing Company has actively implemented activities under strict safety and security conditions; creatively apply processing directions to create the highest efficiency, serving the needs of customers to the fullest. Previously, PV GAS Vung Tau Port Warehouse also regularly broke LPG export records by itself when applying and continuously improving methods of coordination and management of the delivery system. Specifically, in 2019 there were 3 times to raise the record and in 2020 there was 1 time to reach a new record. With the record continuing to be recorded at the beginning of June, this represents the unit’s efforts in disease prevention in parallel with socio-economic development. This is also a practical activity towards the 20th anniversary of operation PV GAS Vung Tau Port Warehouse ./.

In terms of power storage plans, Apple stated that the California Flats currently under construction by the company is one of the largest power storage plans in the United States. It can not only store 240 MW hours of energy to meet the daily power needs of 7,000 households, but also support Apple’s 130MW solar power plant. Under this plan, the relevant solar power plants will provide Apple with all the renewable energy needed by California in a timely manner by storing excess energy generated during the day. In addition to the California investment energy storage plan mentioned above, Apple will also be committed to researching energy storage technology, while building decentralized energy storage facilities in California’s Santa Clara Valley (Santa Clara) through Apple Park’s microgrid.
