Binh Duong (VNA) – The People’s Committee of the southern province of Binh Duong, in
collaboration with the British Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City, organised a
conference on green energy on April 9, aiming to optimise the use of renewable energy and
facilitate knowledge exchange between the locality and experts on sustainable
energy development.

On this occasion, the Eastern International
University, Becamex IDC, the UK’s Q-Energy and the British Chamber of Commerce Vietnam, announced a cooperation project on energy solutions. 

Entitled
Vietnam Intelligent Energy Trading Platform for Upscaling Local Energy Storage
and EV (VIET PULSE), the project is intended to solve basic problems in using
renewable energy in Vietnam such as instability in energy supply to customers.  

Under the project, necessary
infrastructure for solar battery systems, electric vehicle charging stations
and energy storage battery systems will be installed, along with expanding
research and implementation of energy management systems to optimise
electricity consumption and install renewable energy systems as well as applying
Big Data and AI technologies to coordinate resources used in the same basic
infrastructure complex and build an energy sharing model between units.

Addressing the event, British Consul General in HCM City Emily Hamblin said that the UK Government highly evaluated its partnership with Vietnam to prioritise supporting green transition. 

She said that staff at the Consulate General in HCM City and the UK Embassy in Hanoi are
working closely with the Government of Vietnam and relevant parties to increase
support for the country in implementing its net-zero emission commitment.

Vice
Chairman of the Binh Duong provincial People’s Committee Mai Hung Dung said the
province highly appreciated the cooperation programme between Q-Energy of the UK
and the Eastern International University on the project that promotes joint efforts to
minimise negative impacts on the environment and create a more sustainable
future.

It reflects
the strong commitment of the provincial People’s Committee and partners in
promoting sustainable development and green energy transition, he said, adding that
this cooperation not only creates opportunities for the application of advanced
technology but also marks an important step in building a business environment
towards sustainability and high efficiency./.
