Abstract

The purpose of this study is to recognize the importance of sustaining the coal industry in spite of the declaration of new climate change regime. Due to the importance to have the ability to control the supply and demand for energy source, this study will present the ground supporting the need to save some fixed amount of coal to carry out this task. The relative quantity of fossil fuel like coal and oil consumed as an energy source is reduced due to the increasing portion of renewable energy sources. Nevertheless, we can verify the fact that the position as a main energy source in demand for and supply of electric power is still valid. And the optimal amount of coal storage is estimated through the average annual amount of demand derived from preceding studies. In this context, it is very urgent problem to maintain the coal industry as a industrial policy for the sustainable national economic growth through the coal storage policy and to determine the optimal amount of annual storage.

본 논문은 한국에서의 석탄산업이 신기후체제의 출범 이후에도 여전히 중요하며, 일정한 물량의 석탄 비축을 통해 에너지원의 수급을 조절할 수 있는 능력을 지닐 필요성에 대한 근거를 제시하는데 있다. 최근 신재생에너지의 비중 증가는 석탄이나 석유와 같은 화석연료의 의존도를 낮출 것으로 전망된다. 그리고 이에 따라 석탄의 사용도 감소할 것으로 전망되지만, 아직 에너지원별 수요의 면에서나 전력 공급의 면에서 석탄이 에너지원으로서의 지위가 여전히 큰 것이 확인되었다. 석탄의 최적 비축 규모는 기존 연구의 연간 수요를 기준으로 추정하였다. 이러한 점에서 지속가능한 성장을 위한 산업적 정책으로서 석탄산업의 유지와 연간 최적 비축 규모의 결정은 매우 중요한 문제이다.
