Approval of the National Energy Efficiency Program for the period of 2019-2030
On March 13, 2019, the Decision No. 280/QD-TTg on approval of the National Energy Efficiency Programme (VNEEP) for the period of 2019-2030 was issued by the Prime Minister. The VNEEP implements synchronously activities in the field of economical and efficient use of energy, showing commitments of all levels of government, associations, businesses, organizations, individuals to energy efficiency in particular and to climate change resilience and environmental protection in general.
- Overall objectives of the VNEEP are:
+ To mobilize all the national and international resources for stimulating economical and efficient use of energy through the synchronous implementation of assignments and solutions of State management, technical assistance, science and technology research and product development, market transition, human resource training and development, and also utilization of support from the international community in the field of economical and efficient use of energy;
+ To formulate the habit of using energy economically and effectively in all social activities; to reduce intensive use of energy in a variety of economic sectors and industries; energy efficiency becomes a regular activity in key energy users and key economic sectors that consume a lot of energy, with an aim at green growth and sustainable development.
- Specific objectives are:
+ Period up to 2025:
• To save 5.0 - 7.0% of the national energy consumption in the period of 2019 - 2025;
• To enhance the policy mechanism and legal regulations on energy efficiency including research, amend, and supplement contents of the Law on Economical and Efficient Use of Energy and by-law documents; finalize and supplement contents of regulations on energy consumption norms for 10-15sectors/sub-sectors in several key economic fields with intensive energy use; develop and disseminate 10-15 technical guidelines for economic sectors/sub-sectors;
• To reduce power loss to less than 6.5%;
• To reduce the average energy consumption for the industrial sectors/subsectors compared to the period of 2015-2018, specifically: (i) As for steel industry: from 3.00% to 10.00% depending on the type of products and production technologies; (ii) As for chemical industry: minimum 7.00%; (iii) As for plastic manufacturing industry: from 18.00 to 22.46 %; (iv) As for cement industry: minimum 7.50 %; (v) As for textile and garment industry: minimum 5.00%; (vi) As for beer – alcohol - beverage industry: from 3.00 to 6.88 % depending on the type of products and production scale; (vii) As for paper industry: from 8.00 to 15.80% depending on each type of products and production scale;
