EVNPECC4’s representative noted that EVNPECC4 has made a remarkable contribution to the achievement of Renewable Energy’s development in Vietnam to the date.

Energy transition is a very broad topic and one technology may not be enough in achieving the desired objective. At the opening roundtable, some key sub-topics were raised and received valuable open sharing and discussion provided by the panel members as follows:

-The importance of energy transition for Vietnam and its implications on Vietnam economy.

-Renewable technologies, particularly wind technology can assist Vietnam in achieving its net zero transition commitments.

-New policy which can help in accelerating the development of wind energy and the priorities that you would prefer to be addressed from policies and regulations.

-The intermittency of development is an impediment to renewable technologies in playing a more meaningful role in accelerating energy transition.

-The key learnings that Vietnam can take from other developed and developing economies in accelerating energy transition.

-The role of finance in accelerating development of wind assets and some innovative financial solutions that can be suggested for Vietnam to meet the desired objectives.
