Among the city’s facilities and enterprises, about 41 establishments with the highest evaluation scores were awarded the Hanoi Green Energy title 2021 by the Hanoi Department of Industry and Trade.

In 2021, Hanoi has implemented a series of activities under the National Program on economical and efficient use of energy. The program has accompanied businesses to improve energy efficiency and developing and popularizing high-efficiency and energy-saving equipment, gradually eliminating low-efficiency equipment.
