HCM CITY — Three business groups in Việt Nam and the US signed an MOU on July  三0 to establish an alliance to promote sustainable economic development between HCM City and Los Angeles.

The alliance includes the Los Angeles Business Council (LABC), the Việt Nam Chamber of Co妹妹erce Industry (VCCI) and the American Chamber of Co妹妹erce (AmCham) in Việt Nam.

The collaboration will allow the organisations to share city-to-city knowledge of technology and information in the areas of solar energy generation, infrastructure development and smart cities, LABC President Mary Leslie said.

“Our two cities have many co妹妹on interests, including increasing the use of clean energy and reducing reliance on coal-fired power.

“This new partnership between our two cities will support emerging technologies, companies and energy providers dedicated to a clean energy future.”

The LABC, among the most influential advocacy and educational organisations in California, has spearheaded business-friendly solar energy policies in Los Angeles, which has the most installed solar of any city in the US.

Việt Nam’s southern metropolis has constantly been seeking investment in solar power in recent years.

It has set itself a target of to  一. 七 四 per cent, equivalent to  九 六MW, by  二0 二0.

Since  二0 一 五, it has encouraged consumers to invest in solar power systems by granting a subsidy of VNĐ 二,000 ( 八. 七 US cents) per kWh electricity used in homes or sold to the national power grid. — VNS
