As part of the Energy Export Initiative of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, an Energy Trade Mission to Vietnam will take place from 2 to 6 November 2026. Under the theme “Unlocking market potential for bioenergy in Vietnam”, the project supports German companies in gaining structured access to the Vietnamese market and in developing concrete business contacts.
Vietnam is one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic economies, with rapidly growing energy demand and an increasing need for reliable, low-carbon energy solutions. At the same time, the country’s strong agricultural and food-processing sectors, together with rising volumes of organic and municipal waste, offer significant potential for the energetic use of biogenic residues. This creates promising opportunities for German technology providers in fields such as biomass and biogas utilisation, waste-to-energy, bagasse-based CHP, biogas upgrading, monitoring and control systems, energy management, storage solutions, and grid integration.
Under the project leadership of AHK Vietnam, eclareon supports the business trip as a partner in Germany. Its role includes promoting the project, conducting targeted outreach to relevant German companies and multipliers, and supporting the registration process. The trade mission is aimed at German technology providers, engineering companies and system suppliers along the bioenergy value chain that seek to position their solutions for industrial applications in Vietnam.
The programme in Ho Chi Minh City includes an on-site briefing on market, policy, legal and intercultural framework conditions, a German-Vietnamese bioenergy conference with company presentations, networking formats, site visits and individually prepared B2B meetings with potential Vietnamese business partners, customers, distributors and decision-makers.
