VTV.vn - A workshop themed “Future Technologies for Net Zero 2050: UK and Vietnam" was held at the Imperial College London (ICL) on July 12, gathering academics, scientists and researchers from the two countries.

The hybrid event was co-organised by ICL and the Vietnamese Intellectual Society in the UK and Ireland (VIS), aiming to explore the potential of new technologies to catalyse clean energy transition in both countries and facilitate collaboration for solutions to the grand challenges in achieving Net Zero in Vietnam and the UK.

Speakers shared new technologies, research and practical experiences in industrial decarbonisation, green hydrogen production and conversion, and battery management and storage.

They also touched up challenges and solutions to achieve the Net Zero goal in Vietnam, focusing on issues such as renewable energy, green hydrogen, energy storage, circular economy, climate finance, business models and social impacts, and policy orientations on energy transition.

Associate Professor Yen Tran, a member of the VIS Executive Board and head of the event’s Organising Committee, said the workshop offers chance for Vietnamese scientists to get updates on new technologies in the UK in the field of Net Zero, and their application possibility in Vietnam, as well as experience in policy, governance and innovation in energy transition.

According to the Associate Professor, many British foundations and organisations are ready to fund and provide consultations for projects in green energy and sustainable development.
