This study is conducted with aims to develop Algebraic Modelling System power station. Energy source switching as an initiative method for CO achieve a 40% of CO 2 emission reduction, the model suggested that 669.8 MW of electrici supply generation should be produced from solar energy. This indicates that 2.4 million tons of CO 2 per year could be avoided. This scenario had increased the electricity cost (EC) by 86.4% to make the EC is MYR 1.34/kWh. These amounts hit the current EC value of MYR

The conclusion of this study shows that Malaysia has a strong potential to implementation solar energy as an approach in reducing CO conducted with aims to develop Mixed Integer Programming for electricity supply generation plan at Tanjung Bin coal fired switching with implementation of solar energy had been chosen as an initiative method for CO 2 emission reduction. The optimal results indicated that to emission reduction, the model suggested that 669.8 MW of electrici should be produced from solar energy. This indicates that 2.4 million tons per year could be avoided. This scenario had increased the electricity cost (EC) by 86.4% to make the EC is MYR 1.34/kWh. These amounts hit the current EC value of MYR 18/kWh. The conclusion of this study shows that Malaysia has a strong solar energy as an approach in reducing CO 2 emission. ; carbon dioxide; optimization; fuel switching Mixed Integer Programming model in General Tanjung Bin coal fired with implementation of solar energy had been chosen emission reduction. The optimal results indicated that to emission reduction, the model suggested that 669.8 MW of electricity should be produced from solar energy. This indicates that 2.4 million tons per year could be avoided. This scenario had increased the electricity cost (EC) by 86.4% to make the EC is MYR 1.34/kWh. These amounts hit the current EC value of MYR 18/kWh. The conclusion of this study shows that Malaysia has a strong need and great emission. fuel switching; solar energy.
