Vietnam has been considering to develop nuclear power for peaceful purposes based on modern, verified technology since 1995,〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Nuclear Power in Vietnam ) 〕 and firm proposals surfaced in 2006.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Leading the Nuclear Charge – Vietnam’s quest to develop nuclear power ) 〕 However, in January 2014 it was reported that Vietnam had decided to delay construction by six years.〔 The race to diversify beyond its primarily Hydro and Coal energy mix, is driven largely by the country's growing energy demand, which is expected to increase annually by 16%, i.e. from 16 GW ''(2010)'' to 30 GW ''(2015)''.〔 Another factor is the challenges it faces in identifying new suitable hydro power project sites.〔 Its first ever nuclear power projects will be implemented in two major sites in Ninh Thuận Province. The 4 X 1000 MW Ninh Thuận 1 site〔 〕 at Phuoc Dinh, will be built in collaboration with Russian State company - Atomstroyexport, and will set the stage for the foundation of Vietnam's first ever nuclear power plant unit ''(estimated completion - 2020)''. The Japanese consortium - JINED will construct the second site - 4 X 1000 MW Ninh Thuận 2 at Ninh Hải district.〔 〕 In March 2012,〔 an intergovernmental pact was signed between Vietnam and South Korea, to start a one-year feasibility study for the construction of four Korean-developed APR 1400〔 nuclear reactors, additional to the NPP's signed with Russia and Japan. It practically clinched the South Korean consortium as the preferred bidder; however, an official deal will only be signed after approval from the Vietnamese parliament.〔 The 1 GW reactor unit no. 1 at Ninh Thuận 1, will be commissioned and connected to the national grid by 2020, which at that time will represent 1.5%〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Ministry of Science and Technology, Vietnam Atomic Energy Agency Presentation at IAEA, Vienna, Jan 2012 ) 〕 of the projected total output of 52 GW. In June 2010, Vietnam announced that it plans to build 14 nuclear reactors at eight sites in five provinces by 2030, to satisfy at least 15 GW nuclear power ''(i.e. 10% share)''〔 〕 of the estimated total demand of 112 GW. An ambitious strategy to increase the nuclear share to 20-25% by 2050 has also been outlined. The nuclear power plant sites in Vietnam will all be operated by the state electricity utility company - EVN. == History == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nuclear energy in Vietnam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
