Green Growth I Green BusinessKnowledge and Technology Transfer

The timeline

Our meeting partners told us about three challenges:

1. ”We need knowledge about energy defining architecture – and energy technology”

2. ”We need sustainable building materials that can make our dreams of energy defining architecture real….”

3. ”We need partners such as architects, engineers and entrepreneurs with practical experience ….”

How did this Vietnamese-Danish partnership happen? The UCN story:In June 2012, we went on a study trip to HCMC – to meet up with 3 universities and 11 companies.

The Vision

1. Develop the construction industry in Vietnam

2. Higher level of knowledge - design & construction of buildings that do not consume more energy than they produce (active houses)

3. Demonstrate this knowledge in practise – by building a 600m2 in HCMC as an ACTIVE HOUSE using Danish & Vietnamese sustainable building materials

4. Use the ACTIVE HOUSE when built as a training / knowledge transfer center and showcase for DK + VN sustainable building materials

5. We want to do it together with partners, who share the dream of promoting energy efficiency in building and construction…
