In recent days, People's Committees of many provinces and cities across the country have simultaneously issued documents directing departments, agencies, branches, unions and grassroots authorities to promote propaganda and mobilize people to participate in the movement "All people use energy economically and efficiently and respond to the Earth Hour 2026 Campaign".
Accordingly, many practical and rich activities have been deployed synchronously, contributing to spreading the message of economical and efficient energy use to a large number of people and the business community.
In Hai Phong, local authorities coordinate with mass organizations and electricity industry units to promote propaganda in the residential community by hanging banners and posters on streets and residential areas; and at the same time, distribute leaflets guiding people to implement measures to save electricity in daily life.
Meanwhile, in Dong Nai, propaganda activities are integrated with programs to mobilize businesses and production facilities to apply energy efficiency solutions. Functional agencies coordinate with the electricity industry to plan to organize knowledge dissemination, guide businesses to optimize energy use processes, prioritize the use of high-performance equipment, innovate production technology..., thereby contributing to reducing production costs and improving energy efficiency.
In the Central and Central Highlands regions, many response programs are also being organized enthusiastically. In Da Nang, community communication programs on using energy economically and efficiently associated with building a green lifestyle are widely organized, attracting a large number of people to participate.
In Dak Lak, agencies and units are promoting propaganda and mobilizing agencies, businesses and households to implement electricity saving solutions in daily life and production, contributing to spreading the movement for efficient energy use in the community. Mass media channels, social networks and grassroots communication systems are also being utilized by localities to disseminate recommendations on safe, economical and efficient electricity use.
Previously, on February 10, 2026, the Ministry of Industry and Trade launched the movement "All people use energy economically and effectively and respond to Earth Hour Campaign 2026" with the message "Green Creativity - Green Future".
The program aims to call on all levels, sectors, the business community and people nationwide to strengthen practice of using energy economically and efficiently; proactively apply technological solutions, innovate production and consumption methods, and gradually form a reasonable energy-using lifestyle, contributing to improving productivity, quality and efficiency of socio-economic development.
2026 also marks the 15th year that the Ministry of Industry and Trade has chaired the response to the Earth Hour Campaign. Through this journey, the campaign has gone beyond the symbolic meaning of 60 minutes of lights out, becoming an important platform to raise social awareness about using energy economically and efficiently, gradually transforming into regular actions in production and life.
The launching ceremony and the Run in response to "All people save energy and respond to Earth Hour 2025" organized by the Ministry of Industry and Trade will take place on March 21, 2026 at the Creative Culture Space of Trinh Cong Son pedestrian street, Tay Ho Ward, Hanoi.
The direct race will take place immediately after the Launching Ceremony.
The online race will take place on the 84Race platform (www. 84race. com) from March 21, 2026 - April 11, 2026.
The Organizing Committee would like to sincerely thank the European Union Delegation to Vietnam for accompanying activities in response to the Earth Hour 2026 Campaign.
