Abstract

This study focuses on the current state of Smart Grid policy in Japan and its problems while the interest in Smart Grid has been increasing since the March 2011 earthquake in East Japan. As a result of the analysis, Japan introduced the fixed price buying system of new and renewable energy in response to the power supply and demand problem caused by the 2011 earthquake in East Japan, and established a decentralized green electricity trading market in which electricity generated from new and renewable energy is traded Smart Grid-related projects were implemented as a solution to solve energy crisis and environmental problems at the same time. As a result, we achieved visible results such as suppressing peak power, reducing CO2 emissions, and securing stable supply and demand of energy using renewable energy sources. On the other hand, the improvement of current Smart Grid policy operation in Japan and the introduction of stabilization system of power system, promotion of international standards of domestic technology related to smart grid, and support for strengthening security of smart grid.

본 연구에서는 2011년 3월 발생한 동일본대지진 이후 스마트그리드에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있는 가운데 일본의 스마트그리드 정책 추진현황 및 문제점에 초점을 맞춰 살펴보았다. 분석 결과, 일본에서는 2011년 동일본대지진으로 인한 전력수급 문제를 계기로 신재생에너지의 고정가격매수제도가 도입되고, 나아가 신재생에너지로 생산된 전력을 거래하는 분산형 그린 전력매매 시장을 설립하는 등 에너지 위기와 환경문제를 동시 해결하는 하나의 솔루션으로서 스마트그리드 관련 프로젝트가 본격적으로 실행되었다. 그 결과 피크전력 억제 및 CO2 삭감효과, 신재생에너지원을 이용한 에너지 수급의 안정적 확보 등 가시적인 성과를 거두었다. 한편, 현행 일본의 스마트그리드 정책 운영상의 개선과제로는 전력계통 안정화 장치의 도입(송배전망의 광역적 운용이나 대형 축전지 도입 등), 스마트그리드 관련 자국기술의 국제표준, 추진 스마트 그리드의 보안성 강화 지원 등을 제시하였다.
