Greenhouse gas inventory and proposed emission reduction solutions at Vu Gia International Company Limited, Ha Nam province

Abstract

The scope of the inventory includes scope 1 and scope 2. The results of the greenhouse gas inventory at the company in 2023 show that the total converted emissions are 11,359.095 tons of CO₂e. Of which, the largest source of emissions is from grid electricity use, with 11,137.189 tons of CO₂e, accounting for 98.046 % of total emissions. The second source of emissions is from stationary and mobile fuel combustion processes, generating 221.906 tons of CO₂e, accounting for 1.954 %. To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the study proposes several solutions such as: (i) changing to energy-saving lighting equipment, (ii) using renewable energy, (iii) closing the main compressed air supply valve during lunch breaks, (iv) replacing belt-driven fans with direct-driven ventilation fans, and (v) implementing an energy management system. These solutions aim to improve energy efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of the plant.
