The opening also welcomed participants who were ministry participants, foreign organizations, representatives in industry, embassies, academics, researchers, lecturers, and students.

The Exhibition offered great opportunities for academics, industry, policymakers, and other stakeholders to tackle challenging issues of energy and find approaches for renewable sources.

In particular, three key themes were delivered at the ceremony including Renewable energies- the switch to renewable sources; Better mobility; and A just transformation – for all people.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, H.E. Dr. Guido Hildner, German Ambassador said “Vietnam has a huge potential for renewable energies. Therefore, it makes perfect sense also for Vietnam to concentrate its innovative power on the transformation, especially decarbonization, of its energy system...”. He further conveyed great thanks and appreciation for HUST’s support and emphasized the need for multi-layered collaboration since energy in transition is a joint challenge.
