If people can reduce 10% of their energy consumption, they will save a considerable amount of money (VND350 million dong) to invest in their production and business activities. Therefore, the commune will continue to carry out propaganda campaign in order to raise awareness about economical and efficiency use of energy, make energy efficiency program a regular activity.
