SUA Project Implementation Phase,

ZUG / BMUV delegation of German Ministry site survey

Prof. Nguyen Xuan Thinh and the SUA team welcomed the ZUG delegation of the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection (BMUV) in Hanoi, Vietnam. Within a week the delegation visited three projects of the EXI - Environmental Export Initiatives program in northern Vietnam:

    • Smart-Urban-Areas (SUA) in Hanoi
    • CapaViet 3 in Bac Ninh
                               (https://www.exportinitiative-umweltschutz.de/projekte/capaviet-3)
    • S-IRCLE in Nam Dinh
                               (https://s-ircle.com/)

Besides intensive project information, detailed on-site presentations and official meetings, the delegation came in touch with the local communities, work environment and culture of each project and project area.

Working together with local partners, the SUA project was able to successfully initiate the implementation phase between February and April 2024. During this time, TestBed 01 with a green roof and façade was built, which collects rainwater and uses it for automatic irrigation. In addition, 26 LoRaWAN sensors for relative air humidity and air temperature were installed on three levels of the TONKIN2 test building. Two LoRaWAN gateways are used to transmit the data collected by the sensors about the building's dynamics to the project server in Germany for evaluation. The project achieved milestones 3 & 4 successfully.
