Implementing the programme on economical and efficient use of energy in Ha Noi to ensure and stabilise national energy security and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, Ha Noi aims to achieve more concrete results in the 2026–2030 period.
Specifically, the city targets an 8–10% reduction in total energy consumption, a decrease in electricity losses to below 4%, and a 15% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from energy activities compared to the business-as-usual scenario by 2030.
Each year, Ha Noi aims to reduce total electricity consumption for each field by at least 2.2%, including industry, commerce and services, construction, management and consumption, and agriculture–forestry–fishery. It also aims for 100% of enterprises in industrial parks and clusters, rural industrial facilities, and traditional craft villages to have access to and apply energy-saving solutions and efficient energy use.
By 2030, Ha Noi expects to reduce fuel consumption in transportation by 5% compared to projected demand. Around 330 facilities and construction works will be recognised for using green and energy-efficient solutions. Each year, at least two to three construction works will be granted national-level certification for green and energy-efficient works.
Additionally, the city plans to provide training and guidance for about 5,000 technical staff and energy managers in industrial and construction facilities and to train and grant certifications for 250–300 energy managers.
To achieve these targets, the Ha Noi Department of Industry and Trade stated that the city will continue reviewing, building, and improving mechanisms and policies in the field of energy saving as well as providing technical and financial support for production, manufacturing, renovation, and conversion of vehicles, equipment, machinery, production lines, construction works, public lighting, transportation, and energy-saving in households.
At the same time, the city will enhance scientific research and technological development in saving and effective energy use and strengthen international cooperation in this field.
Most importantly, Ha Noi will continue implementing measures to raise public awareness while intensifying inspection, supervision, guidance, and evaluation of the results of implementing legal regulations on energy use.
