The Department of Construction has been assigned to review all relevant legal regulations and technical standards, and to work with the Department of Industry and Trade to standardize criteria for electric vehicle charging stations and pillars.

The department must also collaborate with the Department of Planning and Architecture, the Department of Industry and Trade, the Department of Agriculture and Environment, and local People’s Committees to update planning documents and allocate land for charging infrastructure at bus terminals, parking lots, rest stops, and public areas. In addition, the department is tasked with developing a “Project on Transitioning Fossil Fuel-Powered Motor Vehicles to Clean and Green Energy.”

The department must effectively implement Plan No. 149/KH-UBND dated May 28, 2025, with the target of achieving a 100% electric and green-energy bus fleet by 2030. Additionally, it must establish economic and technical norms and determine unit costs for public passenger transport by electric buses, and submit a proposal for the Hanoi People’s Committee to issue the new pricing scheme within 2025.

The department should also study the development of mini-bus routes using electric vehicles within Ring Road 1 to serve both residents and tourists.

It is required to coordinate with the Department of Justice and relevant agencies to formulate support policies for businesses that manufacture and develop infrastructure for clean energy vehicles.

The department must also design incentives for residents to shift from fossil fuel vehicles to clean energy vehicles or public transport. This report must be submitted to the Hanoi People’s Committee by August 2025 and will serve as the basis for submission to the Hanoi People’s Council before September 30, 2025.

The Department of Finance is assigned to coordinate with the Department of Construction, the Hanoi Development Investment Fund, the State Bank of Vietnam’s Regional Branch 1, and other relevant agencies to develop procedures and guidelines for providing loans. These loans will help transport businesses and green transport infrastructure developers access capital more easily.

City departments and agencies, as well as the People’s Committees of communes and wards, are required to intensify communication with the public and enterprises in order to build consensus around the green transportation transition plan. 

The Department of Construction, as the Head of the Task Force under Decision No. 3763/QD-UBND dated July 14, 2025, must continue to consolidate all obstacles and provide advice and recommendations to the Hanoi People’s Committee for further guidance and resolution.
