LYS Energy and Maersk Join Forces to Launch Solar-Powered Container Library in Vietnam
On 9th September 2023, LYS Energy (Vietnam), in collaboration with A.P. Moller – Maersk, an integrated container logistics company, along with Crocs Vietnam, Công ty Cổ phần chăn nuôi C.P. Việt Nam – CP Vietnam Corporation, Avery Dennison, and RMIT University Vietnam, successfully launched the solar-powered Container Library. This project was centered around the repurposing of Maersk’s 40-foot container, serving as a meaningful example of a circular economy initiative.
Located in Nhon Hoa Lap ward, Tan Thanh District, Long An, Vietnam, the Container Library was purposefully created to benefit the students of Nhon Hoa Lap Primary & Secondary School in Hamlet 5.
LYS Energy (Vietnam) made a substantial contribution by installing a 3kWp rooftop solar power system for the Container Library, complete with four PV modules. Our team played an integral role in the construction, installation, and design of the rooftop solar power system, collaborating closely with subcontractors and providing professional consultancy. Additionally, the team ensures the system’s smooth operation through an annual O&M service.
By adopting solar energy to power the Container Library, this initiative results in an estimated reduction of 2.8 tons of carbon dioxide*. (*Based on a grid emission factor of metric tons of CO2 / MWh = 0.7221, the latest figure available from the VN Department of Climate Change in 2021.)
Embracing renewable energy is the path to a sustainable future. This collaboration opportunity also empowers us to contribute to the broader goal of ensuring knowledge and learning are accessible to all children. This CSR project exemplifies the meaningful impact of sustainability efforts in supporting education for communities with renewable energy (UNSDG 4 – Quality Education and UNSDG 13 Climate Action)
