ArticleOVERVIEW:
The Clean Energy Investment Accelerator (CEIA), the Apparel Impact Institute (Aii), and IDH intend to collaborate in an effort to introduce aggregated procurement approaches to enable greater use of clean energy in Vietnam’s apparel industry supply chain.
In Phase 1 of the CEIA-Aii-IDH cooperation, from December 15, 2020 to June 1, 2021, two related work streams will be undertaken:
1. Corporate and Industrial Park Engagement and Strategic Planning
Summary: Scope opportunities to partner with multinational brands as well as industrial park operators and tenant companies (supply chain manufacturers) to scale innovative clean energy procurement models in Vietnam.
2. Aggregated Supplier Rooftop Solar RFP Design and Recruitment
Summary: Recruit 5-8 brands and 10-20 manufacturing suppliers to join a group procurement process for rooftop solar solutions in Vietnam that will take place in Q3/Q4 2021.
These work streams will prepare CEIA, Aii, and IDH to launch a second phase of work that will support implementation of the aggregated rooftop solar process in late 2021 and beyond.
