Notably, most of the energy projects are hydropower plants, leveraging the province's natural advantages in hydrology and terrain. The list includes the following hydropower projects: Nuoc Dao, Dak Su 2, Dak Piu 1, Dak Rve, Ta Au, Dak Na, Dak Nghe 3, and the wind power project Sac Ly – Kon Tum (phase 1).

In the urban development sector, all 7 projects are located in Mang Den Town, Kon Plong District – a locality identified as a key tourism-oriented urban area of the province. The urban projects, numbered from 1 to 7, are designed to develop residential zones with mixed-use functions and synchronized technical and social infrastructure. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to establish a high-quality urban space that integrates tourism, services, and housing, in line with the approved regional development plan.
To effectively implement this initiative, the Kon Tum Provincial People's Committee has assigned the provincial Center for Investment, Trade, and Tourism Promotion to take the lead. The center will coordinate with relevant departments, agencies, and localities to organize investment promotion activities and prepare detailed project descriptions to support domestic and international investment promotion efforts.
Additionally, the Department of Finance will coordinate with relevant agencies to conduct annual reviews and propose necessary adjustments or additions to the list of investment projects to ensure alignment with the province’s evolving development conditions.
This strategic project expansion underscores Kon Tum Province’s commitment to creating an attractive investment environment, capitalizing on its local strengths, and mobilizing external resources to serve the province’s sustainable development goals in the coming years.
