Linking Renewable Energy and River Conservation: Delivering on Vietnam’s Climate Commitments

Organizer: The Stimson Center

Description:

Vietnam’s ambitious climate commitments to avoid new coal plants and transition towards clean energy are a notable departure from previous energy plans. As the government of Vietnam reviews energy targets and the role of electricity imports, policymakers have an opportunity to minimize future impacts to the Mekong Delta through selective and strategic energy sector engagement with its neighbors Cambodia and Laos.

Join us for a discussion on the recent report, Delivering on Vietnam’s COP26 Commitments, to explore how Vietnam can implement its climate energy commitments through supporting the renewable energy transition at home, sharing lessons learned with neighbors, and coordinating on electricity trade to minimize environmental impacts.
