These days, world wide interest about global warming and environmental pollution and exhausting fossil fuel which have been main energy source in all around the world. So many country have tried to find out the solution by investing new & renewable and clean energy. Therefore LNG have been widely used as a substitution of fossil fuel and clean energy that emits less pollutant like SOx, NOx. Therefore LNG consumption has been quickly raised and LNG carriers have been getting larger for decades. In this study, high power fiber laser was used for welding of stainless steel for LNG carrier to increase its productivity. Used material was STS316L which has low carbon less than 0.03% and its thickness was 8 mm. We carried out bead, lap and butt welding by using the fiber laser which has maximum power up to 5kW. As a result, we could find out that lap and butt joint was possible at welding speed of 2.0m/min and 3.0m/min respectively.

This paper presents a method for analyzing the size and economic sensitivity of a new renewable hybrid generation system according to changes in the component replacement costs based on HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables). The design of a hybrid system can be optimized by reducing the size of a sensitive component based on sensitivity analysis using the change in cost of a component. Sensitivity analysis can also provide information on what combinations are necessary for the optimal hybrid system. As an example, sensitivity analysis was performed on the residential load provided by HOMER, and the effects of component replacement costs on the system size and cost were quantitatively analyzed.

Demand for distributed source by new and renewable energy has been gradually increasing recently. For the characteristics of distributed generation, distributed source is located near the distribution system and customers' buildings and can be operated in standalone mode or in interface mode with distribution system. When the distributed sources are interfaced with distribution system, the standard for interfacing distributed source with existing distribution system and operation manual should be updated with revisions in order to manage the distributed source effectively and operate the distribution system stably because how to operate the interfaced system is different from that of existing distribution system. In this paper, the FEP(Front End Processor) using the international standard protocol IEC-60870 for interfacing with distributed resources was designed. The designed system was verified via the test result using main control system for distributed generation and RTU(Remote Terminal Unit) for interface with distributed power generating.

In accordance with the implementation of the Zero Energy Building Certification System, it for the activation and expansion of the private sector is being steadily upgraded. Also The government has set up a step-by-step mandatory roadmap until it is expanded to the private sector, starting with the public sector. We analyzed the energy requirements of existing buildings from 2016 to 2017 and the by load relationships of major factor. Of the existing buildings, 714 buildings in central and southern areas excluding residential buildings such as apartments and officetels were classified and their primary energy requirements were analyzed. As new design technologies are applied, the demand for energy from the passive side is steadily declining. In addition, there is a need to interpret various methods to improve the zero energy building certification standard in the point that the zero energy building pilot project is continuously carried out in relation to the activation of renewable energy supply.

This study was carried out not only to evaluate optimal operating condition to increase biogas production, but also to estimate feasibility of renewable energy from anaerobic digester of sewage sludge. Semi- continuous Fed and Mixed Reactors (SCFMRs) were operated in various condition to quantify the reactor variables. The result of SCFMR operation showed that the biogas productivity and total volatile solids (TVS) removal of total solids (TS) 4% reactor at hydraulic retention time (HRT) 20 days with Organic Loading Rate (OLR) of $1.45kg/m^3-d$ were $0.39m^3/m^3-d$ and 26.7%, respectively which was two times higher than that of TS 2.5% reactor. Consequently the daily biogas production of $20,000m^3$ would be possible from the total volume of $52,000m^3$ of anaerobic digesters of the municipal wastewater treatment plant in D city. In feasibility study for the Biogas utilization, combined heat and power system (CHP) and CNG gasification were examined. In case of CHP, the withdrawal period of capital cost for gas-engine (GE) and micro gas-turbine (MGT) were 7.7 years and 9.1 years respectively. biogas utilization as Clean Natural Gas (CNG) shows lower capital cost and higher profit than that of CHP system. CNG gasificaion after biogas purification is likely the best alternative for Biogas utilization which have more economic potential than CHP system. The withdrawal period of capital cost appeared to be 2.3 years.

In this study we propose noise energy harvesting for green infrastructure development. In this regard, infrastructures such as railroad, subway, and road are taken into consideration as sources of noise which provides energy through certain wave forms. As the need of recycling noise energy became reasonable due to the increase of infrastructure usage, the capacity and property of our noise energy generating device, which uses electromagnetic induction for electricity generation, are analysed in this paper. Consequently, the outcomes of this experiment show the fact that maximum electricity is generated from the device at a specific point of noise frequency, and the relation between air pressure caused by noise and the electricity generated by the device is in a specific proportional form either linear or non-linear. The major points of developing noise energy generating device in order to apply it into social infrastructure are discussed in this paper as well.

Recently, new distributed power sources such as photovoltaic, wind power, fuel cell systems etc. are energetically interconnected and operated in the distribution feeders, as one of the national projects for alternative energy. When new power sources are considered to be interconnected to distribution systems, bi-directional power flow and interconnection conditions of new power sources may cause several power quality problems like voltage sag, voltage swell, harmonics, since new power sources can change typical characteristics of distribution systems. Under these situations, this paper deals with the analysis the power quality problems at primary and secondary feeders in distribution systems, when new power sources like photovoltaic (PV) systems are interconnected, by using the test devices for PV systems based on the LabVIEW S/W. This paper presents the test device which is consisted with model distribution system and model PV systems. By performing the simulation for power quality operation characteristic based on the test facilities, this paper presents the optimal countermeasures for power quality.
