Abstract

Due to climate change, population growth, and economic development, the demand for water in the urban water system (UWS) and the energy required for water use constantly increase. Therefore, beyond the traditional method of considering only the water sector, the Nexus approach, which considers synergies and trade-offs between the water and energy sectors, has begun to draw attention. In previous researches, the Nexus methodology was used to demonstrate that the UWS is an energy-intensive system, analyze the water-energy efficiency relationship surrogated by energy intensity, and identify climate (long-term climate change, drought, type), geographic characteristics (topography, flat ratio, location), system characteristics (total supply water amount, population density, pipeline length), and operational management level (water network pressure, leakage rate, water saving) effects on the UWS. Through this, it was possible to suggest the direction of policies and institutions to UWS managers. However, there was a limit to establishing and implementing specific action plans. This study built the energy intensity matrix of the UWS, quantified the impact of city conditions, external influences, and operational management levels on the UWS using the water-energy Nexus model, and introduced water-energy efficiency criteria. With this, UWS managers will be able to derive strategies and action plans for efficient operation management of the UWS and evaluate suitability and validity after implementation.

기후변화, 인구증가 및 경제발전으로 도시물순환시스템 내 용수 수요량과 물 이용에 필요한 에너지는 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 따라서 도시물순환시스템을 효율적으로 관리하기 위해 물 부문만을 고려하는 전통적인 방식을 벗어나 물과 에너지 부문 간 상승효과와 상충관계를 고려하는 넥서스 접근법이 주목받기 시작하였다. 이러한 넥서스 방법론을 적용하여 도시물순환시스템이 에너지 집약적인 시스템임을 증명하고, 에너지 원단위로 표현되는 물-에너지 효율 관계를 분석하며, 기후(장기 기후변동, 가뭄, 유형), 지리적 특징(표고차, 평지비, 위치), 시스템 특징(총급수량, 인구, 인구밀도, 관로연장) 및 운영관리 현황(상수관망 수압, 누수율, 물절약)이 미치는 영향을 규명하고자 하는 연구들이 수행되어왔다. 그러나 이를 통해 도시물순환시스템 관리자에게 정책 및 제도의 방향을 제시할 수 있으나 구체적인 정책을 수립하고 시행하는 데 한계가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 제시된 문헌 조사를 통해 시스템 및 공정별 에너지 원단위 매트릭스 구축하고, 물-에너지 넥서스 모델을 활용하여 도시여건, 외부영향 및 운영관리수준이 시스템에 미치는 영향을 정량화하였으며, 관리자가 벤치마킹할 수 있는 물-에너지 사용효율 기준을 제시하였다. 이를 활용하여 도시물순환시스템 관리자는 시스템의 효율적인 운영관리를 위한 전략과 실행계획을 도출할 수 있으며, 계획의 시행 후 적합성 및 타당성에 대한 평가가 가능할 것이다.
