Improving energy efficiency in commercial buildings has become an urgent issue in Vietnam with energy consumption demand rising rapidly. As energy costs account for a significant portion of operational expenses, implementing effective energy-saving solutions will bring considerable economic benefits. Let’s explore 7 ways to improve energy efficiency in commercial buildings in Vietnam in the article below!

According to the IEA (International Energy Agency), we must double the global rate of energy efficiency improvements until 2030 to reach net zero by 2050. In a world where energy and climate crises are intertwined, companies search for ways to keep up with sustainability regulations while maintaining profitability.

Energy consumption from artificial intelligence could be reduced by a factor of at least 1,000 with this device.

On the morning of October 9, 2024, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in collaboration with the World Bank, organized a roundtable discussion on "VSUEE Project Implementation Promotional Measures: Challenges and Opportunities".

On Sept. 24, during the United Nations General Assembly and the New York Climate Week, the International Energy Agency (IEA) released a new report indicating that the goals supported by countries at the United Nations Climate Conference (COP28) — such as tripling renewable energy capacity and doubling energy efficiency by the end of 2030 — could be achievable with the right enabling conditions.

Researchers have created an advanced refrigeration device that combines eco-friendliness with unprecedented cooling efficiency. The system achieves a temperature lift of 75 K by expanding the super elastic temperature window of NiTi shape memory alloys.

Hanoi authorities have teamed up with relevant agencies to provide technical assistance to businesses in developing energy efficiency indices and adopting advanced energy-saving technologies.

The importance of energy efficiency is not to be understated. The International Energy Agency estimates that energy efficiency improvements could contribute as much as 47% of reductions in energy-related CO2 emissions achievable by 2030.

The problem is only going to grow as high-powered AI-based computers and devices become commonplace. That's why University of Missouri researcher Chanwoo Park is devising a new type of cooling system that promises to dramatically reduce energy demands.

For large industries such as paper, steel, and others with large energy consumption, effective energy management is extremely important. It is not only a key factor in reducing product costs, but also directly impacts the long-term survival and development of the business.

Energy efficiency and conservation usage in industry are crucial to the development of the economy and society while ensuring national energy security.

Vietnam needs to consider the development of battery energy storage system (BESS) while the country is on a path towards promoting renewable energies to ensure energy security and sustainable development, experts have said.

Energy efficiency is not just about using less energy, but also about using energy intelligently and optimally. In the context of increasingly scarce energy resources and the threat of climate change, improving energy efficiency has become an urgent task for every country and individual.

The National Innovation Center (NIC) in Hanoi uses ABB energy management and smart building technology for optimum efficiency and sustainability

Japanese air conditioner maker Daikin Industries has this month launched a service that employs artificial intelligence to reduce the power consumption of AC systems by as much as 20%.

The Thai government is set to approve an energy-saving program aimed at accelerating energy-saving efforts within the public sector, targeting an annual reduction of 585 million kWh of electricity.

Hoa Sen Nghe An Co., Ltd. prioritizes implementing energy management solutions and advanced technical solutions aimed at efficient energy use, a top concern for the company.

On the morning of September 27, 2024, in Ho Chi Minh City, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in collaboration with the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), organized "Promoting the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Investment Market in Vietnam's Industrial Sector" seminar.

Invest in a waste heat recovery system, Long Son Cement Plant produces 260 million kWh of electricity annually. The self-generated electricity meets 30% of the plant’s power needs. It is estimated that the plant saves nearly 400 billion VND each year.

Phuc Kien Co., Ltd., (Kien Xuong, Thai Binh) has operated since October 2012, specializing in the production and trading of various types of corrugated carton boxes. Over the years, the company has consistently made efforts to implement solutions aimed at optimizing costs, saving energy, and materials, contributing to ensuring production efficiency, and combating climate change.
