Energy efficiency and conservation has been identified as one of the top priority solutions to mitigate risks related to energy supply, reduce production costs, improve economic efficiency and competitiveness, and contribute to ensuring national energy security and sustainable development.

Resolution 70-NQ/TW of 2025 on ensuring national energy security until 2030, with a vision to 2045, sets the target for energy efficiency at around 8–10% of total final energy consumption compared to the business-as-usual scenario.

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

The accelerated application of energy efficiency solutions to production by companies is not only vital to socioeconomic development but also important to national energy security.

Vinacomin targets its growth rate in total revenues for period 2015-2020 at 6.8%/year; development investment VND 20÷30 trillion/year; value increase at 5%/year; labor productivity increase at 4÷5%/year; income per worker increase at 3.5%/year.

Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) Energy Saving Office consultant Nguyen Kinh Luan said that the application of energy management systems would help enterprises reduce energy costs, protect the environment and secure national energy security when addressing a workshop on the ISO 50001 Energy Management System.
