Outline of GHG Mitigation Activity

Vietnam’s electric power demand is estimated to rise. The objective of the study is to construct and operate 43.6MW hydropower plant of a private company by making use of a Japanese turbine and generator which is high efficient and high durable as an alternative to thermal power plants and to reduce CO2 emissions.

Expected GHG Emission Reductions

93,822 tCO2/year
Reference CO2 emissions: 93,822tCO2/year
 electricity generation supplied to the grid as an alternative(167,480MWh/yr)
 x grid CO2 emission factor (0.5603tCO2/MWh)
Project CO2 emissions: 0tCO2/year
