Speaking at the Ceremony, H.E.Mr. Giorgio Aliberti, Ambassador of the EU to Vietnam shared: “Energy is one of the sectors of close cooperation between the EU and Vietnam, especially in the sectors of energy access, effective use of energy and renewable energy. The EU provided a grant of Euro 250 million for more sustainable energy development in Vietnam. The Programme has provided support for the Government of Vietnam in implementing the goal of electrification in the rural, mountainous and island areas.
