Executive Vice President of the European Commission (EC) Frans Timmermans has expressed his wish to step up cooperation with Vietnam in green energy development.

 

During his three-day visit to Vietnam from Feb. 17 to 19 to discuss Vietnam’s promises at 2021 U.N. Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Scotland last November, Timmermans said "Vietnam has taken an ambitious step forward by setting a target of net zero emissions by 2050. This is an important goal that requires first and foremost a halt to new coal-fired power projects that have no technologies to keep carbon dioxin."

 

"The EU is willing to continue to support Vietnam in its green transition. Vietnam has great potential to continue developing renewable energy. Over the past few days, we have discussed the directions to apply Europe's experience, expertise and financial support to accelerate this transition," according to the Delegation of the European Union in Vietnam.
