3. How did this Vietnamese-Danish partnership happen?
The UCN story:
In June 2012, we went on a study trip to HCMC – to meet up with
3 universities and 11 companies.
Our meeting partners told us about three challenges:
1. ”We need knowledge about energy defining architecture – and
energy technology”
2. ”We need sustainable building materials that can make our
dreams of energy defining architecture real….”
3. ”We need partners such as architects, engineers and
entrepreneurs with practical experience ….”

4. The Vision
1. Develop the construction industry in Vietnam
2. Higher level of knowledge - design & construction of buildings
that do not consume more energy than they produce (active
houses)
3. Demonstrate this knowledge in practise – by building a 600m2 in
HCMC as an ACTIVE HOUSE using Danish & Vietnamese
sustainable building materials
4. Use the ACTIVE HOUSE when built as a training / knowledge
transfer center and showcase for DK + VN sustainable building
materials
5. We want to do it together with partners, who share the dream of
promoting energy efficiency in building and construction…
