- The Hue City committed to increase its share of renewable energy in final energy mix in Local Government by 0% by 2020
- The target is going to be reached by activities in Electricity and Heating & cooling sector.
Development and implementation of detailed plans in response to climate change until 2020.
Directive No. 10/CT-TTg dated 16/4/2012 issued by the Prime Minister regarding the enhanced use of non-baked materials and reducing the amount of baked clay bricks produced/used, and Directive No. 16/CT-UBND dated 29/8/2013 issued by Hue City People's Committee require that, for all constructions funded by the government, at least 50% of the building materials used are non-baked from 01/01/2014, and 100% from 01/01/2015 onwards. For constructions that are 9 storey tall or more, irrespective of whether they are funded by the goverment or private individuals, 30% is the required minimum from 01/01/2014, which is raised to 40% from 01/01/2016.
GHG emission from the production of building materials is expected to decrease by 20%.
Until 2017, the green area covering by trees (area of grass is excluded) will approximately reach 5,34 million square meters that helps increase green area per capita up to 15 square meters in the year 2017. There are approximately 110,000 trees planted from 2001 til 2017 in Hue city

For the time being, there are 95% solid wastes collected but not well disposed, except for some rare unit (as Hue Central Hospital), and most of wastewater is not treated, while 8 to 10 percent of wastes raising annually as a result of social economic development.
Increase awareness raising and encourage the use of renewable energy, especially solar energy, in tourism and service industry, which is Hue City's key economic sector.
It is estimated that by 2020, approximately 80% of the hotels, restaurants and other facilities that consume substantial heated water in the city will switch to using solar water heating instead of electric heaters.
There have been hundreds of big, medium and small scale hotels and other related services as well as thoundsands of residential households applied solar heating water systems which help them save very significant (at least 60%) energy cost.
The recommended mitigation option is to reduce 9% of GHG emission in tourism tranpsort and to create more green and decent jobs for the local people. The involved activities include the preservation of garden house, encouragement of organic vegetable farms in garden house, promotion of non-motorized transport to garden houses, etc
