According to the “Vietnam Energy Outlook Report” from the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) and the Electricity and Renewable Energy Administration of Vietnam at the Ministry of Industry and Trade and released on June 2, Vietnam holds substantial potential in green transformation but action is needed early so that emissions peak no later than 2035, to avoid excessive costs. The report also suggested that Vietnam needs to act soon to convert fuel and to electrify its transportation sector. This will have dual benefits, including reduced air pollution and less dependence on imports. It also said Vietnam is an important partner in Denmark’s transition to a green economy.

The Danish Statistical Office (Denmark Statistics) and the General Statistics Office of Vietnam (GSO) signed an agreement on November 26. Denmark will provide DKK6.5 million (about $1 million) to help Vietnam compile complete and reliable official statistics under international standards.
