Summary report: Develop a national programme for transition to electric transport vehicles

Sep 1

Written By WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities

The summary report on "Developing a National Program for Transition to Electric Transport in Vietnam" outlines a strategic framework to shift the country’s transport sector towards electric vehicles (EVs). It underscores the urgency of this transition, as road transport accounts for over 85% of the sector's energy demand and 80% of its greenhouse gas emissions.

The report details a series of strategic initiatives designed to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) across Vietnam. It emphasises the importance of developing a robust charging infrastructure, providing financial incentives for EV purchases, and implementing supportive policies that encourage both public and private sector investment in the electric transport ecosystem. The report also presents various development scenarios, each based on different levels of policy intervention, illustrating how Vietnam can progressively increase the electrification rate in its transport sector.

Aimed at policymakers, industry stakeholders, and researchers, the report is a crucial step toward a sustainable, low-carbon future for Vietnam.
