The municipal People’s Committee recently issued a plan for the reduction, with the city aiming to achieve savings of 8-10 percent of total energy consumption in 2020-30 and about 14 percent in 2031-45. The capital city will promote the use of equipment and machinery with high efficiency, energy-saving, energy audit and enhance solutions to reduce power consumption and emissions in industrial zones, factories and urban areas. It encourages the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from energy activities compared to the normal development scenario at 15 percent in 2030 to 20 percent in 2045. In the plan, the proportion of renewable energy sources in the total primary energy supply will reach about 2 percent by 2030 and then 5 percent by 2045. The city strives that by 2045, the total capacity of solar power is estimated at about 700MW by installing rooftop solar power in low-rise apartment buildings and high-rise buildings of the city. To implement the targets, the Hanoi People’s Committee has deployed different measures including developing primary energy sources. It quickly and sustainably developed the electricity… Read full this story
