Growing demand from data centers, AI and advanced industries is reshaping electricity demand in Viet Nam — and raising new requirements for energy planning, infrastructure and investment.

⚡💡At VnEconomy’s Forum on Enhancing Policy Frameworks to Build Competitive Advantage for Energy Development on August 11, GGGI Country Representative to Viet Nam, Mr. Juhern Kim joined virtually to share perspectives on how this changing demand profile is reshaping the global energy landscape and what it means for Viet Nam’s next phase of growth.

As investments in AI, data centers and high-tech industries expand, these investments will also bring large, continuous electricity demand. Mr. Kim highlighted the need to better align energy and digital infrastructure planning, strengthen grid readiness and access to increasingly cleaner power. He also highlighted clearer implementation pathways and access to long-term capital, with emerging platforms such as VIFC offering an opportunity to connect investment-ready infrastructure with domestic and international finance.

⚡️🏢What if energy waste in buildings could become ?

Buildings account for 39% of global emissions. Yet much of this footprint is driven not only by how buildings are constructed, but by how they are operated every day.

VEEP-VIoT Energy Efficiency Platform, an AIS4EE cohort startup and its Demo Day First Prize winner, is working to make energy waste in buildings visible by connecting systems and turning real-time data into insight. Its -enabled platform can help building owners optimize operations with a proven potential energy savings of up to 40%.

VEEP’s story makes the case for energy efficiency not as saving by doing less, but as operating smarter -- improving building performance while reducing energy use and emissions.
