Vietnam and Australia are taking an important step towards strengthening their cooperation in the energy and resources sector by establishing a Ministerial Dialogue<\/a>. Government and industry leaders will take part in the dialogue to promote commercial relationships, information exchange, and increase curiosity regarding mining, minerals, and energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dialogue aims to promote cooperation and sustainable investments in the energy and resources sector between both countries. This includes sharing technology and practices to protect the environment, facilitating coal and mineral exports from Australia to Vietnam. Furthermore, the initiative also encourages businesses to invest in sustainable extraction and processing of natural resources in each other’s countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dialogue promotes information exchange on energy sector advancements, such as low emissions technology, benefiting both countries’ energy industries. Stay updated with the latest developments and incorporate them into respective energy sectors through this collaborative exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Promote business networks and information sharing on energy, minerals and mining<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Vietnam and Australia will also discuss the framework for promoting trade and investment in the energy and minerals sectors. This will help both countries to streamline their policies and regulations to facilitate trade and investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, both countries will promote cooperation in the LNG sector, including facilitating investment from Australia in terminal and warehousing facilities in Vietnam and export of LNG to Vietnam.

The first initiative aligns power purchase agreements in Vietnam with global standards, enhancing the financial viability and attractiveness of renewable energy projects. This promotes sustainable business practices by ensuring projects are economically, socially, and environmentally responsible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia will fund a study in Vietnam to identify energy and climate change gaps and propose funding mechanisms. This study will utilize the Energy Window of the Partnerships for Infrastructure (P4I) and the Mekong-Australia Partnership (MAP) programs, with a focus on promoting gender equality. This will ensure that projects are socially and environmentally responsible, promoting sustainable business practices. Vietnam and Australia will share policy and technical expertise among their energy sector government agencies such as the Electricity Regulatory Authority of Vietnam (ERAV) and relevant Australian energy agencies. P4I tools, including private sector expertise, will also support this engagement, promoting sustainable business practices and technically sound projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia will also provide support to Vietnam’s Electricity and Renewable Energy Authority (EREA) to encourage the development of the country’s offshore wind sector. This will promote sustainable business practices and ensure that projects are environmentally responsible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through these initiatives, Vietnam and Australia are committed to advancing sustainable business practices in the energy sector. The two countries strive for financially, socially, and environmentally sustainable projects, driving economic growth and securing a sustainable future. Prioritising sustainable business practices in the energy sector is vital for the well-being of our planet and the generations to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
