Tender Details

Background

Viet Nam-s socio-economic growth is the rapid urbanization of Viet Nam and has led to development of construction sector as well as higher energy demand for building sector. The report by World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) showed that energy use in buildings accounts for 40% of the world energy use and generates an amount of CO2 emissions accounting for 30%.



In response to the challenges, Vietnamese Government has set forth many sustainable solutions namely National targeted program on climate change, National Strategy and Action Plan on Green Growth, Law on Energy Efficiency and Conservation. These are important legal bases for implementing activities on energy efficiency in building sector, namely the Decision No. 811/QD-BXD by the Ministry of Construction dated 18 August 2016 on Action Plan in response to climate change of the Building sector, period of 2016-2020; the Energy Efficiency building code (QCXD09:2013) and the Green Growth Action Plan of the construction sector.



Under this situation, the Ministry of Construction (MOC) in cooperation with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) implements the Project “Energy Efficiency Improvement in Commercial and High-Rise Residential Buildings in Viet Nam” (EECB) funded by Global Environment Fund (GEF). The Project-s goal is to reduce intensity of GHG emissions from the building sector in Viet Nam. The project objective is to improve the energy utilization performance of commercial and high-rise residential buildings in Viet Nam. Realization of this objective will be achieved through implementation of three components: (i) Improvement and Enforcement of Energy Efficiency Building Code; (ii) Building Market Development Support Initiatives, and (iii) Building EE Technology Applications and Replication



The Project will be implemented over a 4-year period starting from April 2016 and is expected to generate GHG emission reductions of about 37, 680 tCO2e. The cumulative direct reduction in GHG emissions over the lifetime of the project is envisioned to be 236, 382 tCO2e.



The total funding of the project is USD 24, 696, 550 of which GEF grant funding is $3, 198, 000 and the remaining amount of $21, 498, 550 is co-financed by national counterparts including MOC and building owners.



The project was formally launched in August 2016 and should end by end of 2020. All project components are under implementation.
