Also according to Deputy Minister Lang, the installation of LED street lights using wind and solar energy is the first step for the Management Board to install this lighting system in the whole high-tech park of nearly 1,600 hectares. In addition, the CDM building (clean development mechanism - reducing greenhouse gas emissions) is under construction and will be put into use soon.

As one of the two high-tech zones of the country, with an area of ​​nearly 1,600 hectares, HHTP will be built according to a scientific city model with full utility services. The areas to be focused on development include Information Technology, software; Biotechnology; New material technology; Environment friendly technology, new energy technology .
