Measures
An intensified effort should be made to increase energy efficiency across different sectors
Energy efficiency is an important measure in reducing energy consumption in the energy sector and benefiting from lower investment in energy systems, low to no-cost actions and reduced energy-related emissions. Viet Nam has a large opportunity to further improve its energy efficiency, particularly in the industrial sector but also across other sectors. This analysis suggests that, in addition to the current programme aimed at reducing energy consumption by 10 to 15 per cent in some industrial subsectors, a mandatory 20 per cent efficiency improvement should be mandated across the entire industrial sector. This can also be mandated through energy improvements per sector. For the residential sector, this roadmap suggests further enhancement of the labelling and standards of household and commercial appliances and equipment, so that 30 per cent of all appliances are converted to efficient versions.
