Abstract

    Demand and supply forecast of electricity for the long-term has a serious attention at this time. Demand of electricity that is increased rapidly in average of 6.4% per annum for the period 2000-2010 should be anticipated with a comprehensive planning of electricity generation. It is associated with a long-term of energy supply sustainability and efforts to increase energy security. A variety of technologies and fuel options for power generation can be considered to meet the supply target. The current energy policy like draft National Energy Policy (KEN) that have been socialized by the National Energy Board (DEN) and Energy Vision 25/25 from the Directorate General of New and Renewable Energy and Energy Conversion (DG EBTKE) need to be considered for planning ahead.
