Some days ago the Central Committee for
Vietnam Farmers’ Association had a meeting in Hanoi
with Knescopic Electronic Corporation – India on cooperation of supporting
the poor households in rural and mountainous area in approaching electrical
devices using solar power.
Based on analysis of the actual use of
electrical appliances in rural areas and mountainous regions of Vietnam, both
sides agreed to sign on the project "Solar energy lighting for the poor and
the minority in mountainous areas".
The project aims to propagate and raise the
awareness of energy saving in order to alleviate the consequences of greenhouse
effect and global warming and also to gradually bring high tech devices to the
poor. This is regarded as a useful and practical project for the poor in Viet Nam, especially
in 62 poor districts, because it supports the production of products well
suited with the divided terrain in mountainous area of our country.
In phase I, it is estimated that there will
be 25,000 lighting lamps docked to Vietnam to serve the poor. The
price of the bulb is approximately over USD30 each, and the average longevity
is 15 years. Manufacturing materials of these lamps have been issued carbon
certificates by International Organization and Global Energy International
Committee and therefore are guaranteed to meet safety standards. Those are
green lighting products and can illuminate for 50 thousand hours. The assured longevity
of batteries is 3 years. People will also be trained on how to use batteries
most effectively. The products will be distributed free for the poor.
Soon after being agreed upon by both sides,
the project will be submitted to the Government of Vietnam and the Environment
agency of United Nations for approval. If approved, Knescopic Electronics
Corporation will collaborate with Vietnam Farmers’ Association in the project
to supply devices using solar power for farmers. These solar power devices are
produced by the company for the poor community in rural areas. Based on the
results of sponsorship proposals, the devices will be supplied free of charge
for farmers or at a fraction of their costs.
Knescopic Electronics Corporation specializes
in manufacturing energy saving electronic devices. It has developed an
international network of offices in India,
Taiwan, Hong
Kong and many other regions worldwide. Products of Knescopic
Electronics have the advantage of being environment friendly. By using solar
energy, these products release less carbon dioxide and also reduce the use of other
energy sources which are being excessively exploited such as hydro-power,
thermal power, oil and gas.
In the coming time, it’s needed to develop new tools and methods which help solve practical problems and legislate the guidelines and policies of the Party and State to promote energy efficiency activities. In which, reviewing and amending the Law on Economical and Efficient Use of Energy is urgent.
Vietnam and Germany have signed three cooperation agreements in defense, energy and vocational training during the visit of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
This statement is derived from the latest report published by Oxford Analytics on the global wind energy market. The report also suggests the market will gradually shift to Asia due to price pressure, climate policies and geopolitical impacts.
On October 28, 2021, the signing ceremony of the Agreement between the two Governments on Development Cooperation took place in the Vietnam - Denmark Energy Partnership Program in the period of 2020 - 2025.
The energy structure in the next 10 years will change due to the impact of the pandemic as well as policy adjustments and sustainability as it recovers. Therefore, from now on, businesses in the Vietnamese energy industry need to plan and come up with an implementation strategy to be able to adapt to the new normal.
In a virtual meeting with Mr. Tan See Leng, Minister for Manpower and Second Minister for Trade and Industry in mid-October, Vietnam's Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Hong Dien said that the energy crisis is taking place in the world, especially in Europe, the US and China, showing that energy is always an important issue that many countries focus on solving.
The 3rd Energy Security Dialogue has an important message for both Vietnam and the US. It is an appropriate time for Vietnam and the US to update each other on the national energy development plan according to appropriate energy transition orientations, in line with the global climate change mitigation trend.
The US Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City said that it has just sponsored AMI AC Renewables Renewable Energy Company to implement a pilot project to develop an energy storage battery system using leading US technology.
