Co-organised by the Office of the Steering Committee on Energy Efficiency under the Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Hanoi Municipal Department of Industry and Trade and the Vietnam Energy Conservation and Energy Efficiency Association (VECEA), the two energy efficiency awards aim to honour energy efficient industrial enterprises, construction works, and products.
According to Nguyen Dinh Hiep, Chairman of the Vietnam Energy Conservation and Energy Efficiency Association (VECEA), the awards are part of communications activities serving the national programme on effective and efficient use of energy for 2019 – 2030. The programme targets a goal of saving 8-10% of the total power used nationwide.
Contestants can submit their documents from August 26 to October 31. The award technical council will evaluate and select works, products, and enterprises that fulfill related criteria, with the announcement of award winners and the award presentation ceremony slated for December.
The organiser said the award for energy efficiency in the industry was first held in 2017, attracting the participation of nearly 100 businesses with 460 power-saving solutions.
The award for energy efficiency in construction took place for the first time last year, recording 44 participants and 220 solutions. It presented the award for 22 new and upgraded projects.
The annual award for highest energy efficient products is running its third edition this year. To date, it has recognised more than 300 products and 20 brands.
