In the coming years, Vietnam shall be expected to import coal for the national development demand. Therefore, the effective utilization of energy is one of the most important goals in the national strategy on sustainable energy development which is inextricable with economic development, energy security and environment protection.
The opinion was given by Mr. Nguyen Khac Tho, Deputy Director General of General Department of Energy, Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) in the international exhibition and conference “Experience with green energy and effectiveness 2014” recently organized by MOIT and Schneider Electric – the global energy management corporate.
In the context of 2050 the Vietnam’s energy demand shall be expected to increase by 15 times, therefore by now Vietnam needs to have smart approaches to accelerate community’s awareness on the important role of energy saving and to support enterprises and residences, especially in urban areas, to manage and utilize effectively energy.
Sharing experience in managing energy and handling energy challenges in the conference, Mr. Xavier Delony - General Director of Schneider Electric Vietnam said that in the context of exhausting energy sources, changing ideology and consumption behaviors are needed to utilize effectively energy.
The “Experience with green energy and effectiveness” is a series of global events designed and initiated by Schneider Electric and organized twice in Vietnam.
