Steering the green energy transition

Galvanizing green energy development and BESS scale-up to help Vietnam become the green hub of Asia.

With increasing energy demand and rapid economic growth, there is an urgent need for renewable energy scale-up in Vietnam. GEAPP’s goal in Vietnam is to support the country’s equitable energy transition, providing technical assistance and access to catalytic financing so it can leapfrog traditional fuel dependence and develop its renewable energy sources. We drive impact by unifying the efforts of diverse stakeholders toward the collective goal of making energy sustainable, accessible, and affordable for all.
