In Vietnam’s green transition landscape, startups are making significant strides in developing environmentally friendly technological solutions that contribute to environmental protection and sustainable development. As awareness of environmental issues continues to rise and commitments to reduce the negative impacts of industrial and consumer activities strengthen, Vietnamese startups are increasingly focusing on sectors such as renewable energy, waste treatment and recycling, eco-friendly materials, and high-tech agriculture.
Renewable energy
One of the most dynamic areas of development is renewable energy. Startups like Sun*Energy and GreenID are implementing solar and wind energy solutions aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Sun*Energy specializes in developing and delivering solar power systems tailored for households, businesses, and institutions across Vietnam, providing clean and sustainable energy sources. Meanwhile, GreenID focuses on research and policy advocacy, as well as the implementation of renewable energy projects that aim to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and promote the adoption of green energy throughout the country.
Waste management and recycling
Waste treatment and recycling have also become key focus areas for many startups committed to environmental protection. Companies such as AIRX CARBON and PVA PRO are creating cutting-edge technologies to treat and recycle waste, aiming to minimize the release of non-degradable materials into the environment. AIRX CARBON specializes in producing recycled carbon materials from waste, offering a sustainable solution for waste management while creating valuable products from recycled inputs. On the other hand, PVA PRO is researching and developing biodegradable packaging alternatives to replace conventional plastics, helping to mitigate the harmful environmental effects of plastic waste.
Bio-based materials
Startups in the bio-materials sector are also gaining attention by introducing sustainable alternatives to traditional plastic. A notable example is Buyo Bioplastics, which produces biodegradable bioplastics derived from natural materials. These products not only reduce plastic pollution but also lower carbon emissions during manufacturing and use, offering an effective solution to environmental degradation while supporting the circular economy.
High-Tech Agriculture
CENERGY focuses on developing green agricultural systems that optimize the use of water and soil resources, increasing productivity while ensuring long-term sustainability.
Green Mobility
In the realm of green transportation, Dat Bike has emerged as a pioneer in electric motorbike manufacturing. By replacing gasoline-powered vehicles with electric alternatives, Dat Bike helps reduce urban air pollution and noise, paving the way for more sustainable mobility in Vietnam’s growing cities.
Vietnamese startups in the green transition sector are actively contributing to environmental improvement and sustainable growth. From renewable energy and waste management to biodegradable materials and clean agriculture, these efforts not only address current challenges but also protect natural resources and ecosystems for future generations. By offering practical and scalable solutions to pressing environmental problems, these startups are inspiring communities and industries alike to participate in the green transition movement – ultimately helping to build a more sustainable future for Vietnam.
