Government-Mandated Emissions Trading System
The Vietnamese government's commitment to establishing a comprehensive carbon market framework is fundamentally transforming the demand landscape for carbon management software solutions throughout the country. In January 2025, Vietnam's Prime Minister approved Decision No. 232/QD-TTg, establishing a comprehensive framework for developing an emissions trading system and carbon credit market, with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment mandated to develop measurement, reporting, and verification systems, while the Hanoi Stock Exchange will operate the carbon exchange platform. This regulatory mandate creates unprecedented requirements for digital infrastructure capable of supporting transparent, auditable, and real-time emissions tracking and trading activities. The government is prioritizing infrastructure development and capacity-building activities to prepare government agencies and covered entities ahead of the pilot launch scheduled for June 2025, which will initially cover high-emitting sectors, including power generation, steel manufacturing, and cement production. These sectors collectively represent approximately fifty percent of Vietnam's total emissions, demonstrating the substantial market opportunity for software providers capable of delivering compliant solutions. The phased implementation approach, transitioning from a pilot phase through 2028 to full market operations by 2029, provides software vendors with a clear roadmap for product development and market entry strategies. Furthermore, the integration of Certified Carbon Credits from domestic and international mechanisms, including the Clean Development Mechanism, Joint Crediting Mechanism, and Article 6.4 of the Paris Agreement, necessitates sophisticated software platforms capable of managing complex credit verification, trading, and compliance workflows across multiple regulatory frameworks.
Growing Demand for Automated GHG Inventory
Vietnam's expanding regulatory framework for greenhouse gas emissions reporting is creating substantial demand for automated carbon management software solutions across industrial and commercial sectors throughout the country. In August 2025, Vietnam's Prime Minister issued Decision No. 13/2025/QD-TTg updating the lists of sectors and greenhouse gas emitting facilities required to develop greenhouse gas inventories, taking effect from October 1, 2025, specifying that 2,166 facilities are required to conduct updated greenhouse gas inventories with enterprises required to submit their first GHG inventory by March 31, 2025. Of this total, 1,805 facilities belong to the industrial and commercial sector, seventy-five to transportation, 229 to construction, and fifty-seven to natural resources and environment, demonstrating the substantial scope of regulatory compliance requirements. The complexity of emissions inventory requirements, which mandate comprehensive data collection across multiple scopes including direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, indirect emissions from purchased energy, and value chain emissions, necessitates sophisticated software platforms capable of automating data aggregation, calculation, and reporting processes. Organizations face significant challenges in manually tracking emissions across diverse operational activities, multiple facilities, and complex supply chains, making automated solutions essential for ensuring accuracy, consistency, and regulatory compliance. Additionally, the increasing integration of Vietnam into global supply chains exposes domestic manufacturers to international sustainability requirements, including the European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, which imposes carbon-related costs on imports with significant emissions. This creates additional compliance pressures that further drive adoption of comprehensive carbon management platforms capable of meeting both domestic regulatory requirements and international reporting standards.
Integration of AI and Digital Technologies in Carbon Accounting and ESG Management
The Vietnam carbon management software market growth is being accelerated by the rapid integration of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced digital technologies into carbon accounting and environmental, social, and governance management platforms throughout the Vietnamese business ecosystem. In March 2025, FPT Software launched its VertZéro greenhouse gas inventory solution, designed to comprehensively digitize the process of collecting environmental data, calculating, managing, creating emissions reports, and monitoring progress of commitment implementation, with the solution applying throughout the entire roadmap including collecting, systematizing, and automating greenhouse gas inventory activity data, identifying sources and emission factors to ensure global standard factors, and calculating emissions across three scopes while connecting and synchronizing data from 30 countries. The platform represents a new generation of carbon management tools that leverage automation and data integration capabilities to overcome the limitations of manual tracking and spreadsheet-based approaches that dominated earlier sustainability reporting efforts. Modern carbon management software increasingly incorporates artificial intelligence algorithms for automated data validation, anomaly detection, and predictive analytics that enable organizations to identify emission hotspots, forecast future emission patterns, and optimize reduction strategies based on scenario modeling capabilities. The integration of Internet of Things technologies allows real-time monitoring of operational equipment and processes, providing continuous emissions data that enhances the accuracy and timeliness of carbon accounting while enabling proactive management of environmental performance. Cloud-based deployment models are becoming standard, offering scalability, remote accessibility, and seamless integration with existing enterprise resource planning systems and other business management platforms. Furthermore, advanced visualization tools and customizable dashboards enable stakeholders at all organizational levels to access relevant emissions data and performance metrics, facilitating data-driven decision-making and transparency in sustainability communications with investors, customers, regulators, and other stakeholders who increasingly demand comprehensive environmental disclosures aligned with global reporting frameworks.
