Hanoi Expands Power Saving Campaign

The capital city of Hanoi, in late March, launched a power-saving campaign with the aim of guiding customers to use electricity economically and efficiently. This year, Hanoi expects to see one million households to get involved in the campaign.

 

In 2010, a pilot campaign was successfully held in 10 districts with the participation of 100,000 households, of which 30,000 households achieved the title of “using energy economically and efficiently”. This event helped raise awareness and shaped the habit of using energy economically. After the campaign, participants saved 17 million kWh of electricity, an equivalent to VND15 billion.

 

The 2011 campaign aims at changing the awareness of the society, building up the awareness and habit of using energy economically and efficiently, etc.
