Envision Energy has received the Gold Award for Cross-Border Collaboration of the Year at the Asian Power Awards 2025 for its contribution to the 600-megawatt Monsoon Wind Project in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic.
The Monsoon Wind Project is the first wind power development in Laos and the largest single-site wind farm in Southeast Asia. Located in the southern provinces of Sekong and Attapeu, the project will transmit clean electricity to Vietnam through a 500 kV transmission line, enabling cross-border renewable energy trade. Over its operational lifespan, it is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 35 million tons. The project also supports Laos’ strategic goal of becoming the “Battery of Southeast Asia” by establishing the country as a regional hub for renewable energy exports.
As the project’s exclusive wind turbine supplier, Envision Energy signed the turbine supply agreement in March 2023 and successfully delivered all 133 wind turbines ahead of schedule by July 2024. This milestone marks a significant achievement in advancing renewable energy cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative and underscores Envision’s commitment to accelerating the global clean energy transition.
“Winning the GOLD award for Cross-Border Collaboration of the Year is a proud moment for our teams.” said John Lee, General Manager of Asia & Africa Markets at Envision Energy. “The Monsoon Wind Project highlights our ability to deliver large-scale international projects and advance regional clean energy. Completing Southeast Asia’s largest wind farm ahead of schedule reflects the dedication of our teams and partners in overcoming technical and logistical challenges while setting a benchmark for cross-border collaboration in the renewable energy sector.”
