This paper describes the development by the Government of Korea of a program to reduce dependence on fuel oil and diversify their sources of fuel for electric power generation. Among the measures adopted were accelerated construction of nuclear and coal-fired plants, and conversion of some existing oil-fired plants to alternative fuels. Korean engineers visited the Kwinana Plant in Western Australia to gather first-hand knowledge of the operation and maintenance of their oil to coal converted units.
