The People’s Committee of Hanoi has issued a plan to implement the National Program on Energy Efficiency and Conservation and electricity demand management across the city in 2026.

The synchronized and decisive implementation of demand-side management and efficient electricity use nationwide is of critical importance, contributing to reducing peak load, improving power system operation efficiency, and alleviating pressure on investment in new power generation sources.

With a series of synchronized solutions from management to technology, Stanley Vietnam has saved millions of kWh of electricity, reduced CO₂ emissions, and reaffirmed its green commitment.

In Nghe An, many enterprises have proactively implemented electricity-saving measures, helping reduce production costs, ease pressure on the power system, ensure energy security, and promote sustainable development.

Hoa Phat Group has generated 1.8 billion kWh of electricity, saving nearly 3,500 billion dong, contributing to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving production efficiency.

The installation and operation of a rooftop solar power system has helped Goshi - Thang Long Motorcycle and Automobile Parts Co., Ltd. save over 122 million dong in electricity costs each month.

Following the implementation of numerous electricity and energy-saving solutions, the Van Hoa Clinker Plant has saved around 40% of its total annual electricity consumption in recent years.

Many coal enterprises under the Vietnam National Coal and Mineral Industries Group (TKV) have been actively implementing electricity-saving practices, helping reduce production costs and ensuring energy security.

The adoption of new technologies and full automation of the production line has helped ADC Plastic Joint Stock Company reduce its electricity cost per ton of product from 300,000 VND in 2020 to 250,000 VND per ton in 2025.

In 2024, the waste heat recovery (WHR) system at Vicem But Son generated 69.6 million kWh of electricity, saving 121.7 billion VND in electricity costs.

The simultaneous implementation of various energy-saving solutions has helped reduce the electricity consumption per kit at Terumo BCT Vietnam Co., Ltd. from 3.45 kWh/kit in 2019 to 2.91 kWh/kit in 2023.

Waste heat recovery (WHR) power generation system helping Tan Thang Cement save 80 billion VND in electricity costs annually and contribute to environmental emission reduction.

The application of improvement initiatives, investment in new technologies, and especially the energy-saving awareness of each employee have helped Panasonic Industrial Devices Vietnam Co., Ltd. save nearly VND 2.5 billion in electricity costs annually.

Many large electricity-consuming enterprises in Hai Duong Province are effectively implementing energy-saving solutions.

The installation of inverters for the furnace has helped SCM Metal Vietnam Co., Ltd. save 10% on electricity costs.

New research from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) finds that Texas households that swap out inefficient electric resistance heaters for heat pumps would save an average of more than $300 in utility bills annually. Switching the quarter of Texas houses and apartments that rely on electric resistance heating to heat pumps would reduce peak winter electricity demand by an amount equivalent to the output of 40 new gas-fired power plants. The report calls for Texas policymakers, regulators, and utilities to encourage heat pump adoption at the time existing central air conditioners need to be replaced.

Mexico should promote an efficient energy policy that guarantees the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity, and availability of hydrocarbons, given the rise in nearshoring, a research institute said Monday.

The cement industry is a high-energy consumer. At Do Luong Cement Plant, the average annual electricity consumption is significant, reaching 268,770,410 kWh, equivalent to VND 412 billion, accounting for 35% of the production cost of each product.

Researchers at Rice University have found a new way to improve a key element of thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems, which convert heat into electricity via light. Using an unconventional approach inspired by quantum physics, Rice engineer Gururaj Naik and his team designed a thermal emitter that can deliver high efficiencies within practical design parameters.

An optimized model could further reduce the energy needed, decrease pain and tissue damage.
