Green Energy Transition Showcase powers sustainable future

This event brought together industry leaders and experts to explore innovative solutions driving the transition to green energy in Vietnam

The event aimed to highlight key advancements and foster collaboration among stakeholders committed to sustainability and environmental progress.

It provided a platform for Vietnamese green energy startups Alternō, EBOOST, and Stride to showcase their innovative solutions and foster collaboration within the renewable energy industry.

Driven by rapid population growth and economic development, Vietnam faces growing energy demands.

Traditional fossil fuels, however, are running out and causing environmental damage. This requires a swift transition to renewable energy and carbon reduction.

ASSIST is working with the startups to support this transition by raising awareness about innovative alternative energy solutions and making them more accessible to individuals and businesses. These efforts aim to boost Vietnam's green energy movement and create a thriving ecosystem for renewable energy startups. The partnerships are supported by P4G.

Alternō's sand battery technology offers a sustainable and scalable energy storage solution. With its intelligent charging solutions, EBOOST is being rapidly adopted for electric cars, while Stride is enabling companies with affordable rooftop solar panels.

“We are excited to showcase the talent and innovation of these Vietnamese startups,” said Aru David, regional director of ASSIST Vietnam.

“This event is a platform for them to connect with investors and partners, while accelerating the development of Vietnam's green energy industry,” added David.

Energy players look to deeper innovation to boost transition Technological innovation will help promote the energy transition in Vietnam, with the proportion of renewable capacity in Vietnam's power system increasing rapidly.

Trade shows highlight the future of energy in Asia Pacific More than 350 exhibitors and brands have committed to gather at the international trade shows - Electric and Power Vietnam 2024 and HVACR Vietnam 2024.

Financing the energy transition for Southeast Asia It is unusual to feel nostalgic when you glimpse the future. Seeing an electric rickshaw for the first time, I could not help but smile reminded the spluttering sound of rickshaws which filled the crowded Indian streets of my youth. New electric models are quickly becoming a more common sight in those parts of Southeast Asia which share that three-wheeled transport tradition.
