Hanoi, Vietnam - October 08, 2024

A waste-to-energy plant built by a Chinese enterprise in Vietnam's capital city Hanoi, has transformed the city's biggest landfill into a major power station, generating electricity enough for the daily consumption of around 100,000 households.

With around 71,000 tons of garbage generated per day, waste management has become a pressing issue in Vietnam. A Chinese-built waste-to-energy plant in Hanoi's Soc Son District plays a crucial role in this challenge, converting 5,000 tons of waste into electricity each day. Built on the site of Hanoi's largest landfill, it has significantly improved the local environment, introduced Nguyen Van Trong, an operator at Thien Y Soc Son Waste Treatment Power Plant.

As the largest clean energy project in ASEAN countries, the plant is generating 1.5 million kWh of electricity per day, and still scaling up.

The waste-to-energy plant is a part of the China-ASEAN cooperation on sustainable energy, a crucial sector given the increasing demands from both parties. From 2000 to 2020, China's public investment in sustainable energy projects across ASEAN countries accounted for 60 percent of its total foreign public investment, covering areas such as offshore wind power, hydropower, green transportation and more.
