With more than half of the world’s population and emerging economies, Asian countries have the potential to play a significant role in reducing energy consumption through adoption of energy efficiency techniques.

Graphene could lead to greener more fuel efficient cars in the future by converting heat into electricity.

The Coca-Cola headquarters in Brussels improved its energy efficiency with Umisol window film.

The lower efficiencies mean that it takes years for homeowners and businesses to recoup the money they invest in solar power systems. If the efficiencies were higher, that time for return on investment would be slashed, people would be able to cover more of their power loads with renewable energy and solar power would be much more enticing to people and corporations.

This information was released in the press conference with the participation of the Ministry of Construction, Vietnam Water Supply Association, the South East Asian Water Utilities Network, and Science and Technology Union of Renewable Energy.

The solution with commitment to save energy was launched in March, then the city became the first locality in the country where commitment to implement energy-saving targets is signed.

The international exhibition on energy saving and renewable energy is an opportunity for enterprises to introduce their wind, solar, geothermal, biomass energy technologies; to advertise and make links with businesses through seminars.
