초록

기후변화 영향으로 미래의 유출량은 변화할 것이다. 미래 유출량의 변화는 수자원시설에 유입량을 변화시켜 발전량에 영향을 미친다. 본 연구는 기후변화로 인한 유출변화에 따른 북한 수자원시설 발전량을 평가하였다. 수자원시설에 대한 발전량은 물의 에너지에 의해 수차 발전기를 회전시켜 전력을 발생시킨다. 즉, 물의 위치에너지를 운동에너지로 바꾸고 운동에너지를 다시 전기에너지로 변화시키는 것이다. 본 연구의 평가 결과, 북한 수자원시설 발전량은 현재보다 2011년부터 2040년까지 감소하였고, 2041년부터 2100년까지는 증가하였다. 또한, 기존 북한 수자원시설의 발전량은 미래에 감소하거나 현재와 비슷하게 나타났다. 신규 북한 수자원시설의 발전량은 단기적으로는 감소하지만, 중장기 미래에는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 기존 북한 수자원시설은 기후변화 영향에 취약하고, 신규 북한 수자원시설은 기후변화 영향에 유리하게 입지하고 있는 것으로 판단된다.

The runoff will be changed in the future due to climate change, and this phenomenon affects the flood inflow to Water Resources Facilities (WRF) and its production. This study has evaluated the electric power generation of WRF in North Korea as climate change. The WRF can produce the electric power by rotating the hydraulic turbine using the energy of water. In other words, it converts the potential energy to the kinetic energy, then the kinetic energy to the electric energy. As a result of this study, the amount of power generation of WRF in North Korea decreased from 2011 to 2040, and increased from 2041 to 2100, comparing with present. In other words, the productivity will decrease at first (2011~2040) but increase (2041~2100). It is because there will be new facilities for climate change, and the capacities of them will be getting far better than the existing facilities. The existing North Korean WRFs are vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and it is judged that the new North Korean WRFs are advantageously located in the influence of climate change.
