| Abstract | This study focuses to Vietnamese electricity sector. In the last decade the economy
developed with a very high rate. It caused the electric utility could not be invested for the
new capacity at that rate. Consequently, the electric power shortage was unavoidable and
became one of the critical barriers in the national socioeconomic development. Electricity
of Vietnam (EVN) has to plan to expanse the electric power system with a big capacity in
both generation and transmission, distribution. Everything must be prepared since now,
beginning with the generation expansion planning for the horizon of 2002-2012. In
planning for the power production, the environmental constraints are asked for
consideration to get the effective plan with whether environmental pollution avoided or
costed. This is the task performed in this study.
Nowadays, there are many softwares used for electric power expansion planning
such as WASP-IV, Lindo, Elfin, etc. Each software has different advantages in its
interface, functions, and convenience. With the target of special analysis on the
environment impact of power plants, Elfin model - Version 3.06.8, by Environmental
Defense Fund - EDF (California, USA - 1998) - is use as the main tool for this study.
