As part of its effort to combat climate change, Vietnam’s trade ministry has set the target to have 15-20 per cent renewable energy sources in its total primary energy supply by 2030.

According to a report citing an action plan on climate change response and green growth of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the rate would increase to 25-30 per cent by 2045.

The report showed that greenhouse gas emissions from the electricity production sector were to be maintained at about 42 million tonnes of carbon dioxide by 2050, adding that attention would be paid to promoting production and business models toward green growth.

According to the action plan, the focus would be on applying solutions to the economical and efficient exploitation and use of natural resources and energy.
