  4. Map of Vietnam Capital: Hanoi Area: 331,690 km2 Population: 86 mil. (2009) Coastal line: 3,260 km GDP (PPP): @2,800 $

  5. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam Based on national strategy on industrialization, modernization and socio-economic development of the country: • All scenarios on energy demand have been studied intensively, comprehensively and systematically, then discussed and debated from working to policy-maker levels since 1990’s;

  6. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam 2. According to research results, the electricity demand under the base scenario (with GDP growth rate of 7.1%-7.2%/year for the 2001-2020 period) will be 201 billion kWh by 2020 and 327 billion kWh by 2030.

  7. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam 3. Meanwhile, domestic conventional energy sources (hydro, coal, oil & gas, renewable) can supply only 165 billion kWh by 2020 and 208 billion kWh by 2030. In other words, according to the base scenario, our country will run short of 36 billion kWh by 2020 and nearly 119 billion kWh by 2030. The increasing shortage of electricity supply will continue in the subsequent periods.

  8. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam 4. To settle the demand-supply balance, the following options have continued to be studied to compare and consider, namely: • Import electricity from the neighboring countries; • Import coal, oil & gas for electricity production; and • Introduce nuclear power.

  9. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam 5. Research results have also pointed out nuclear power is more advantageous than the other options in terms of economics, environment, energy security, and optimal mix.

  10. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam As a result, after a long process of comprehensive and systematic study and intensive discussion, a well-informed decision has been officially made, that is: Nuclear power should be introduced in the country.

  11. I. Necessity of Nuclear Power for Vietnam The decision to introduce nuclear power into Vietnam was officially stated clearly and openly in 02 following important documents: 1. Strategy for Peaceful Use of Atomic Energy up to 2020 (Jan. 2006, by Prime Minister), in which nuclear power is a main component in the Strategy); and 2. Strategy for Energy Development up to 2020, with a vision to 2050 (Dec. 2007, by Prime Minister);

  12. II. Guiding Viewpoints in the Development of Atomic Energy Applications in Vietnam Guiding and Consistent Viewpoints in the National Policy and Strategy for the Development of Atomic Energy Applications in Vietnam are: • Vietnam uses atomic energy for peaceful purposes exclusively;

  13. II. Guiding Viewpoints in the Development of Atomic Energy Applications in Vietnam 2. All applications should be ensured safely and securely at the highest level for the protection of people and the environment; 3. All applications should be conducted in an effective and efficient manner practically in service of sustainably socio-economic development.

  14. II. Guiding Viewpoints in the Development of Atomic Energy Applications in Vietnam In order to stepwise realize the above-mentioned viewpoints, Vietnam has been trying its best to conduct the followings: 1.

  43. IV. Some Comments and Lessons Learned 1. Vietnam has studied carefully and been following closely all the recommendations in IAEA publications “Considerations to Launch a Nuclear Power Programme (GOV/INF/2007) and “Milestones in the Development of a National Infrastructure for Nuclear Power” (No. NG-G-3.1), at the same time, actively learned experiences of other countries through bilateral cooperation;

  44. IV. Some Comments and Lessons Learned 2. All aspects related to nuclear power introduction have been and being carefully considered, such as legal and technical infrastructure, human resources training and development, national electrical grid, technology selection, site selection, financial arrangement, environmental impact assessment, public acceptance, international environment, etc.), to ensure NPP will be built according schedule and put into operation in the safest, most secure and economic manner;

  45. IV. Some Comments and Lessons Learned 3. However, as presented above, in the organization and implementation of specific duties, Vietnam does its own way, for example Vietnam does not establish a separate Nuclear Energy Programme Implementing Organization (NEPIO). Each ministry according to its state management functions is assigned to take the main responsibility for each specific duty in collaboration with related ministries/lines;

  46. IV. Some Comments and Lessons Learned 4. According to our self-assessment, it can be said that Vietnam is standing somewhere in Phase 2 between Milestone 1 and Milestone 2.

  47. IV. Some comments and lessons learned 5. Vietnam highly appreciates IAEA INIR methodology and misssion to the country. It is very important and useful for us. It is strongly requested more IAEA INIR missions should be conducted. It is also expected that comments/recommendations should be deeper, more specific and franker, not too much diplomatic, that is best way the IAEA can help us.

  48. IV. Some comments and lessons learned 6. It is very clear that nuclear power is not a single and pure economic issue, but a very complex and interdisciplinary issue - political, economic, social and environment, so in order to be able to successfully introduce nuclear power, some key factors would be: • Political will should be strong, consistent and transparent;

  49. IV. Some comments and lessons learned • Government’s leadership and direction should be strong, concerted and drastic in the organization, implementation, supervision, inspection and assessment of related duties;

  50. IV. Some comments and lessons learned • High public acceptance should be gained; and • Good international cooperation should be established and strengthened.
