About SBVN

Sustainable Building Vietnam – SBVN is a program implemented by the SBVN Social Enterprise, with in-depth technical support provided by Edeec Co., Ltd., a leading consulting firm for green and energy-efficient buildings in Vietnam.

SBVN aims to become the most trustful program supporting the development of sustainable projects and buildings in Vietnam,  through training, awareness raising and technical assistance activities provided to investors, project developers, professionals, and especially the new generation of sustainable architects and engineers in Vietnam.

Our mission is to drive the construction industry toward sustainable development, contributing to the achievement of the Net Zero target by 2050.

Optimizing energy economics in the construction sector

Every sustainable project must achieve three core values:

Reduce investment and construction costs
Reduce investment and construction costs
Optimizing investment costs is a top priority for investors and project developers. This is also a goal SBVN strives for in every green, sustainable, and energy-efficient project in Vietnam. Some projects supported by SBVN have demonstrated the potential to reduce up to 40% of investment costs for thermal and energy systems in buildings.
Reduce energy consumption, operational costs, and CO2 emissions
Reduce energy consumption, operational costs, and CO2 emissions
Reducing CO2 emissions is a long-term goal for buildings worldwide. Lowering CO2 emissions also means reducing electricity consumption, as electricity is the largest source of emissions throughout a building's life cycle. SBVN has successfully calculated the potential to reduce operational energy consumption by up to 35% in some exemplary projects, significantly cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
Enhance user comfort
Enhance user comfort
Optimizing investment and operational costs without compromising the comfort of the building. Factors such as temperature, humidity, air quality, lighting comfort, and acoustics are carefully controlled and maintained for every space, ensuring year-round comfort.

Develop a Sustainable Workforce

People are the key to solving challenges
