Abstract

This comprehensive study provides a breakdown of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by sector along with current energy efficiency measures in Vietnam. The main GHG sources (2010) were Energy and Agriculture, accounting for 58% and 36% of total GHG emissions respectively. Projected 2020 to 2030 GHG emissions show that GHG emissions in the Energy sector will increase rapidly. The paper provides a table of National Targets in GHG Emissions Reductions and Energy Efficiency, as well as a table which describes in detail the regulatory frameworks in force, their status and implementation year. A final table provides a summary of “Barriers to Energy Efficiency Implementation.”
