AbstractNowadays, fossil fuels such as coal, oil are becoming exhaustion and the world is facing environmental pollution seriously caused by burning fossil fuels. Hence countries tend to find clean power sources to replace conventional power sources, wind energy is one of replacement power sources. In the world, wind energy is the most important renewable and it has been developing dramatically with 27.6 % of average annual growth rate in new install capacity in period 2005 – 2010. Vietnam locates in monsoon zone and has over 3000 km of coast line, so Vietnam has a huge potential of wind energy. To be aware of important role of wind energy in sufficient electricity, the Vietnamese government issued policies to develop wind power. However, the policies need to be reviewed and amended to support wind energy development corresponding to the potential.
