Could you please introduce a brief overview of LS Electric Vietnam?

Our LS Electric Vietnam factory was built in 1997, and has been accompanying domestic and foreign customers for more than 28 years. We are confident in being a leader in providing energy solutions, electrical systems and components. We are proud to bring high-quality products and services, helping businesses optimize production efficiency and minimize costs.

With a team of experienced engineers and advanced technology, we always strive to bring innovative and flexible solutions, meeting the diverse needs of customers. LS Electric Vietnam is committed not only to providing quality products but also to accompanying customers throughout the usage process, from consulting, installation to maintenance.

We are proud to be a reliable partner of many large enterprises in the industry, construction and energy sectors. Our mission is to contribute to the sustainable development of Vietnam's economy through the provision of advanced solutions.

Besides the electrical industry, what automation and smart energy solutions does LS Electric Vietnam offer to customers in the power industry? What are your insights on the current “smart energy” trends?

In addition to providing solutions in the electrical industry, LS Electric Vietnam also offers customers solutions in automation and smart energy. We focus on modern products and technologies such as:

1. Industrial Automation Solutions: We provide integrated automation solutions, from SCADA control systems to equipment and software that support the process of optimizing production operations, helping to increase productivity and reduce operating costs.

2. Smart Energy Solutions: LS Electric also provides products and solutions related to energy management, such as smart energy storage systems (ESS), optimizing energy efficiency in buildings and factories.

3. Renewable Energy Systems: We offer solutions for the exploitation and use of renewable energy, such as solar and wind power systems, helping customers use sustainable energy sources and minimize environmental impact.

Regarding the "smart energy" trend, it is gaining momentum as countries and businesses move towards sustainable development goals and minimize the impact of climate change. Smart energy is not just about using renewable energy, but also about the ability to apply technology to monitor, coordinate, and optimize energy use most effectively.

IoT and AI in Energy Management: The application of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies helps collect data from devices, machinery, buildings, or factories, and analyze them to optimize energy use in real-time.

Integration of Renewable Energy: Energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower are being increasingly integrated into the grid, and managing them effectively through smart energy solutions will help reduce dependence on fossil fuel sources.

Flexible Control Capability: Smart energy allows users to control energy systems flexibly, from choosing when to use energy, when to store, or even sell excess energy back to the grid.

LS Electric Vietnam is committed to continuing to provide advanced solutions, helping customers save energy, optimize operations, and move towards a sustainable future with smart energy. We believe that, in the near future, smart energy solutions will not only be a trend but an indispensable part of every electrical system, from households to industrial plants."

The LS Electric Vietnam factory in the expanded Yen Phong Industrial Park, Bac Ninh province, is the first in Vietnam to adopt smart energy management technology. Does this mark a concrete step in fulfilling LS Electric Vietnam's mission of 'Smart Energy for the Future'?

Yes, indeed, the LS Electric Vietnam factory project in the expanded Yen Phong Industrial Park, Bac Ninh province, is one of the exemplary projects in concretizing our mission of 'Smart Energy for the Future' that we always strive towards. This is the first factory in Vietnam to apply smart energy management technology, through the installation and use of electricity from solar panel systems and energy storage battery systems, marking a significant turning point in the application of advanced technological solutions to industrial production.

This factory is not only a place for manufacturing and assembling electrical panels but also a clear testament to LS Electric's commitment to contributing to sustainable development and enhancing energy efficiency in Vietnam. We believe that the application of smart energy management solutions will help minimize energy waste, optimize the production process, and contribute to environmental protection.

Through this project, LS Electric Vietnam aims to affirm its commitment to delivering smart energy solutions, emphasizing its desire to bring sustainable development not only to Vietnam but also worldwide.

Does LS Electric Vietnam promote social enterprise values by actively contributing to local socio-economic development?

We recognize that a business not only creates economic value but also has a responsibility to the community and society. Therefore, LS Electric Vietnam consistently strives to promote the spirit of a social enterprise through specific activities such as:

Supporting Education and Vocational Training: We have skill training programs for students and workers to enhance their skills and create more job opportunities.
