6 FUTURE POWER DEMAND TILL 2030 Malaysia s Electricity demand will rise to become a developed nation. New Power capacity must be planned and installed. Revised 2011 forecast ~ 15,000 MW in 2011 Revised 2011 forecast Year Initial 2011 forecast April 2010 Forecast Initial 2010 forecast Revised forecast Nov 2010 Forecast ,779 MW 17,943 MW ,669 MW 21,228 MW ,967 MW 23,592 MW ,193 MW 25,817 MW Initial 2011 forecast Source: TNB System Planning, November 2011

7 Atomic Energy Licensing Board (AELB) Established in 1 February 1985 under Section 3(1) of Atomic Energy Licensing Act 1984 (Act 304) Departmental Vision Remaining a relevant regulatory authority with credibility in radiation and nuclear safety, security and safeguarding its peaceful uses for national sustainable development. Departmental Mission Encouraging innovation culture to ensure the Safe and Peaceful Uses of Radiation and Nuclear Technology.

8 AELB S ORGANIZATION Atomic Energy Licensing Act 1984 (Act 304) & Strategic Trade Act 2010 (Act 708) To provide for the regulation and control of atomic energy technology & its trade.
