중소형 폐기물 소각설비의 폐열보일러에서 생산되는 10 $kg/cm^2$미만의 저압증기를 이용한 증기터빈발전에서 증기의 건도를 높이이 위한 증기 전처리가 필수적이며, 건도를 증가시킨 증기를 이용하여 발전실험을 하였다. 본 연구에 적용된 증기터빈발전기는 마이크로 축류식 증기터빈으로 배압식을 채택하였으며, 증기터빈에 공급되는 증기압력의 증가에 따라 증기공급량, 발전량이 증가하였으며, 이에 따른 발전 효율은 설비의 효율에 따라 변하였다. 또한, 배압식 증기터빈의 경우, 공급.배기측의 증기 압력의 차이가 증가함에 따라 발전을 위한 증기 소비율이 감소하고 발전 효율이 증가함을 볼 수 있었다.

This paper demonstrates that centralized economic load dispatch optimization is much more economical than independent optimization carried out by individual power generating companies. The algorithm applied here optimizes by balancing the generation power at the valve-point, then readjusting generation power by comparing incremental operating cost incurred by marginal increase in the generation power and decremental operating cost likewise incurred by marginal decrease in the generation power. Upon comparing 3 individual optimization cases of 10, 13, and 40 generators respectively with centralized optimization of 63 generators, centralized operation for economic load dispatch optimization has proven to maximize economic benefits by markedly reducing operation costs of individual optimization.

The reduction of CO₂ emissions in the energy production sector, which accounts for 86.8% of total greenhouse gas emissions, is important to achieve carbon-neutrality. At present, 60% of total power generation in South Korea is coal and natural gas. Replacing fossil fuel with renewable energy such as wind and solar has disadvantages of unstable energy supply and high costs. Therefore, this study was conducted through the co-firing of natural gas, ammonia and hydrogen utilizing the natural gas combined cycle process. The results demonstrated reduction in CO₂ emissions and 34%~238% of the power production compared to using only natural gas. Case studies on mass fractions of natural gas, ammonia and hydrogen indicated that power production and NO_x emissions were inversely proportional to the ammonia ratio and directly proportional to the hydrogen ratio. This study provides guidelines for the use of various fuel mixtures and economic analysis in co-firing power generation.

In the existing photovoltaic generation system, the system equipped with the reflecting plate is a method in which solar energy (insolation) is concentrated on the surface of the photovoltaic module. However, the solar energy (insolation) lost by being reflected back through the solar module is not considered. Although a method of increasing the amount of power generated by installing a reflector around the solar modules has been proposed, this affects the power generation degradation caused by the shading of other solar modules. Therefore, in order to improve this problem, in this paper, 1) without affecting the development of photovoltaic module according to the shade, 2) photovoltaic module using a reflector rotating the solar energy (insolation) lost by the solar module Study and suggest how to join again. Therefore, the loss of solar energy (insolation) can be minimized through the method of recycling the solar energy according to the countless reflection angle of the lost solar energy (insolation). As a result, it is possible to increase the amount of power generation of the photovoltaic generation system by maximizing the amount of power generation for the same solar radiation.

In this study, the effect of wake on the energy production of a downstream wind turbine was analyzed on the base of operation practices of wind farm in the coastal complex terrain which has 2 row array of wind turbines. And changes in the variation of wind speed and turbulence intensity was analyzed. In case wind turbines are spaced 4-rotor diameter-apart in the prevailing wind direction, reduction in energy production was confirmed due to the decrease of wind speed and the increase of turbulence intensity by wake. Especially a radical change of wind direction caused wind turbine a sudden stop and energy production significantly reduced. It is considered improvement of yaw brake can prevent the sudden stop and increase energy production.

석탄, 석유 값의 지속적인 상승과 기후변화협약 발효 등 환경규제의 강화로 신 · 재생에너지에 대한 관심과 인기가 연일 올라가고 있다. 국내에서도 관련 업계의 신 · 재생에너지 사업에 대한 참여도가 매년 급증하고 있는 상황이다. 지난 2002년 신 · 재생에너지분야에서 생산한 총 발전량이 156.731MW에서 지난해에는 389.954MW로 2.4배나 늘었다. 이러한 급증세는 정부의 신 · 재생에너지 확대 정책에 따른 것이기도 하다. 정부는 여러 가지 지원제도를 통해 신 · 재생에너지의 활성화를 위해 노력하고 있다. 그 중 가장 효과가 큰 제도가 바로 2002년부터 시행 중인 '발전차액 지원 제도'이다. 사실 신 · 재생에너지는 초기 투자비가 높고 원가가 원자력 및 화석연료에 비해 2~10배가량 높다. 이러한 상황에서 발전차액을 지원해 주는 제도는 가히 매력적이라고 볼 수 있다. 그런데 최근 정부에서 이러한 '발전차액 지원제도'를 개선하겠다고 발표하면서 신 · 재생에너지 관련 시장을 후근 달아오르게 하고 있다. 그 이유는 바로 정부가 발전차액 지원 금액을 줄이겠다고 발표했기 때문. 따라서 관련업계에서는 당연히 반발할 수 밖에 없다. 그러나 정부 측 주장대로 그동안 기술적인 발전과 발전량의 증가 등으로 인해 이 시점에서 한 번 제도를 개선할 필요성도 있다. 최근 '뜨거운 감자'로 부상한 '발전차액 지원제도 개선안'의 내용과 논란 내용을 소개한다.

The objective of this study is to estimate the relationship between CO₂ emissions and both nuclear power and renewable energy generation, and compare the cost efficiencies of nuclear power and renewable energy generation in reducing CO₂ emissions in Korea. The results show that nuclear power and renewable energy generation should be increased by 1.344% and 7.874% to reduce CO₂ emissions by 1%, respectively. Using the estimated coefficients and the levelized costs of electricity by source including the external costs, if the current amount of electricity generation is one megawatt-hour, the range of generation cost of nuclear power generation to reduce 1% CO₂ emissions is $0.72~$1.49 depending on the level of external costs. In the case of renewable energy generation, the generation cost to reduce 1% CO₂ emissions is $6.49. That is, to mitigate 1% of CO₂ emissions at the total electricity generation of 353 million MWh in 2020 in Korea, the total generation costs range for nuclear power is $254 million~$526 million for the nuclear power, and the cost for renewable energy is $2.289 billion for renewable energy. Hence, we can conclude that, in Korea, nuclear power generation is more cost-efficient than renewable energy generation in mitigating CO₂ emissions, even with the external costs of nuclear power generation.

This study evaluates wind farm efficiency at Haengwon in Jeju Island. The actual energy production at Haengwon wind farm is compared with the estimated energy production based on Korean wind map which is developed at the National Institute of Meteorological Research/KMA. The validation of wind map at Gujwa located near the Haengwon wind farm shows that the wind speed is overestimated. The diurnal variation of wind speed shows a maximum value in the afternoon due to the effect of sea-land breeze. The ratio of the actual energy production at Haengwon wind farm and the estimated energy production based on the Korean wind map is 24.8%, while the distribution of energy frequency is similar each other. The difference of energy production is caused by mechanical error of the turbine and the overestimation of the simulated wind map. This study will contribute to the repowering of turbines for improving the efficiency of wind farm in the future.

Nowaday the amount of water resource to generate the hydro-power energy has decreased as that of the water supply has increased. In case that the national market of the energy will be in free competition, the energy producer need to suggest the amount of the optimal supply with the hydrological reliability for a deal. In this study the optimal reservoir operation was performed by the linear programming and the optimal reliabilities of inflows and the power supply were obtained by the one dimensional search technique to estimate the energy with the optimal inflow reliability which the power system of the Yongdam multipurpose dam in Geum river can produce. And the main results were presented.

In order to increase the generation of renewable energy, it is necessary to increase or decrease the generation amount of existing generators. The generators that respond rapidly to increase / decrease the generation amount generally have high generation cost. Therefore, Cost effectiveness is affected. In this paper, we propose a PV remote control system with big data to minimize the uncertainty of solar power generation prediction.
