HCMC – Tan Tao and Tan Binh Two industrial parks in HCMC have saved some 95,700 kilowatt-hours of power or equivalent to over VND100 millions after over seven months applying measures for saving power and water consumption, heard a seminar in HCMC on Friday.
Duong Lan Huong, an official of the HCMC Energy Conservation Center, told the seminar on saving power for industrial production organized that these two IPs parks were the pioneers applying solutions for cutting down the power and water consumption since last September. The measures were consulted by the center.
Huong said by changing the old lighting systems in and around the parks, the measures could help these industrial parks saving millions of Vietnam dong each year. The saved energy was also equivalent to the reduction of some 41 tons of carbon dioxide discharged into the environment.
At the seminar, the center said the measures could be widely applied at many other industrial parks in the city and other localities.
There were hundreds of representatives of developers of many industrial parks in HCMC, Binh Duong, Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Dong Nai, Long An and other southern provinces joining the seminar.
