- PPIAF Supports Private Sector Participation in Green Infrastructure Investment in Da Nang, Vietnam381.74 KB
Document Summary:
Da Nang, the fourth largest city in Vietnam, was selected to be the first pilot city to implement the SUEEP framework. Environmental protection and green growth have been at the forefront of the city’s development policy. Its comprehensive environmental plan, “The Plan for Developing Da Nang – The Environmental City 2,” includes commitments to greater energy efficiency and more widespread use of renewable energy. The implementation of the Da Nang SUEEP program is expected to further confirm the city’s credentials as an environmental city.
Document Details:
In 2013, PPIAF, in collaboration with the World Bank Sustainable Urban Energy and Emissions Planning (SUEEP1) program in the East Asia and Pacifi c (EAP) Region, supported Da Nang in developing a long-term sustainable energy and emissions plan. The SUEEP program aims to promote solutions that would help de-link high levels of carbon-intensive energy use from urban growth in the EAP region. This collaboration helped establish the process to identify and prioritize green infrastructure investment opportunities to attract private-sector participation.
