최근 화석연료의 급격한 사용에 따른 자원고갈이나 환경오염과 같은 문제들이 심각해짐에 따라 화석연료를 대체할 수 있는 신재생에너지에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 태양광 에너지는 다른 에너지원에 비해 고갈의 우려가 없고, 부지 선정의 제약이 크지 않아 수요가 증가하고 있다. 태양광 발전 시스템에서 생산된 전력을 효과적으로 사용하기 위해서는 태양광 발전량에 대한 정확한 예측 모델이 필요하다. 이를 위한 다양한 딥러닝 기반의 예측 모델들이 제안되었지만, 이러한 모델들은 모델 내부에서 일어나는 의사결정 과정을 들여다보기가 어렵다. 의사결정에 대한 설명이 없다면 예측 모델의 결과를 완전히 신뢰하고 사용하는 데 제약이 따른다. 이런 문제를 위해서 최근 주목을 받는 설명 가능한 인공지능 기술을 사용한다면, 예측 모델의 결과 도출에 대한 해석을 제공할 수 있어 모델의 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 모델의 성능 향상을 기대할 수도 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)을 사용하여 모델을 구성하고, 모델에서 어떻게 예측값이 도출되었는지를 SHapley Additive exPlanation(SHAP)을 통하여 설명하는 태양광 발전량 예측 기법을 제안한다.

In the case of power generation using renewable energy, power production may not be smooth due to the influence of the weather. The energy storage system (ESS) is used to increase the efficiency of solar and wind power generation. ESS has been continuously fired due to a lack of battery protection systems, operation management, and control system, or careless installation, leading to very big casualties and economic losses. ESS stability and battery protection system operation management technology is indispensable. In this paper, we present a battery level calculation algorithm and a failure prediction algorithm for ESS optimization and stable operation. The proposed algorithm calculates the correct battery level by accumulating the current amount in real-time when the battery is charged and discharged, and calculates the battery failure by using the voltage imbalance between battery cells. The proposed algorithms can predict the exact battery level and failure required to operate the ESS optimally. Therefore, accurate status information on ESS battery can be measured and reliably monitored to prevent large accidents.

Biogasification is a technology that produces environmentally friendly fuel using methane gas generated in the process of stably decomposing and processing organic waste. Biogasification is the most used method for energy conversion of organic waste with high moisture content, and is a useful method for organic waste treatment following the prohibition of direct landfill (2005) and marine dumping (2013). Due to African Swine Fever (ASF), which recently occurred in Korea, recycling of wet feed is prohibited, and consumers such as dry feed and compost are negatively recognized, making it difficult to treat food waste. Accordingly, biogasification is attracting more attention for the treatment and recycling of food waste. Korea's energy consumption amounted to 268.41 106toe, ranking 9th in the world. However, it is an energy-poor country that depends on foreign imports for about 95.8% of its energy supply. Therefore, in Korea, the Renewable Energy Portfolio Standard (RPS) is being introduced. The domestic RPS system sets the weight of the new and renewable energy certificate (REC, Renewable energy certificate) of waste energy lower than that of other renewable energy. Therefore, an additional incentive system is required for the activation of waste-to-energy. In this study, the operation of an anaerobic digester that treats food waste, food waste Leachate and various organic wastes was confirmed. It was intended to be used as basic data for preparing the waste-to-energy incentive system through precise monitoring for a certain period of time. Four sites that produce biogas from organic waste and use them for power generation and heavy gas were selected as target facilities, and field surveys and sampling were conducted. Basic properties analysis was performed on the influent sample of organic waste and the effluent sample according to the treatment process. As a result of the analysis of the properties, the total solids of the digester influent was an average of 12.11%, and the volatile solids of the total solids were confirmed to be 85.86%. BOD and CODcr removal rates were 60.8% and 64.8%. The volatile fatty acids in the influent averaged 55,716 mg/L. It can be confirmed that most of the volatile fatty acids were decomposed and removed with an average reduction rate of 92.3% after anaerobic digestion.

All the public buildings except for fire stations failed to meet 10% expected energy consumption, a revised standard. (3) Energy consumption of each public building was 120.6TOE for a tax office, 124.3TOE for a dong office, 166.4TOE for a public health center, and 174.6TOE for a fire station. The energy consumption was comprised of 80% electric power, 18% urban gas, and 1% oil. (4) Electric power consumption per person in the room was high at a dong office, and fuel consumption per person in the room was high at a public health center. In addition, electric power consumption per unit space was high at a public health center, and fuel consumption per unit space was high at a fire station. (5) In all the four public buildings, power load had the highest basic unit percentage at average 55%, being followed by heating load (21.2%), cooling load (15%), and water heating load (7%). A tax office and fire station had 2% load due to cooking facilities.

As the scope of use of portable and wearable electronic devices is expanding, the limitations of heavy and bulky solid-state batteries are being revealed. Given that, it is urgent to develop a small energy harvesting device that can partially share the role of a battery and the utilization of energy sources that are thrown away in daily life is becoming more important. Contact electrification, which generates electricity based on the coupling of the triboelectric effect and electrical induction when the two material surfaces are in contact and separated, can effectively harvest the physical and mechanical energy sources existing in the surrounding environment without going through a complicated intermediate process. Recently, the interest in the harvest and utilization of wind energy is growing since the wind is an infinitely ecofriendly energy source among the various environmental energy sources that exist in human surroundings. In this study, the optimization of the energy harvesting device for the effective harvest of wind energy based on the contact electrification was analyzed and then, the utilization strategy to maximize the utilization of the generated electricity was investigated. Natural wind based Fluttering TENG (NF-TENG) using fluttering film was developed, and design optimization was conducted. Moreover, the safe high voltage generation system was developed and a plan for application in the field requiring high voltage was proposed by highlighting the unique characteristics of TENG that generates low current and high voltage. In this respect, the result of this study demonstrates that a portable energy harvesting device based on the contact electrification shows great potential as a strategy to harvest wind energy thrown away in daily life and use it widely in fields requiring high voltage.

The basic properties of cow and chicken manure such as proximate analysis and element analysis were estimated and the comparison to energy characteristics of carbonization residue between cow and chicken manure was evaluated. The optimum carbonization condition of cow and chicken manure was decided by total heating value of carbonization residue which was expressed by multiplying low heating value by yield. The optimum carbonization conditions for carbonization time and temperature can be decided by 15 min, and $350^{\circ}C$ for chicken manure, and 20 min, and $300^{\circ}C$ for cow manure. At the optimum carbonization conditions, low heating values for the carbonization residue of cow and chicken manure are evaluated by 4,378kcal/kg, and 3,462kcal/kg, respectively. The residues of cow manure were satisfied with the standard of solid fuel product. However, the residue of chicken should be improved by materials changes to be used as a renewable energy source.

Recently, micro-grids based on a CVCF inverter have been replacing diesel generators to reduce CO2 emissions in island areas with the increase of renewable energy sources. Stable operation methods are also being researched. These micro-grids may cause energy sinking if the total output of renewable energy sources is larger than the total customer loads. In the case of energy sinking, the voltage of a CVCF battery could rapidly increase according to the condition of SOC, and blackout could occur in the micro-grid due to the operation of a protection device in a CVCF inverter. Therefore, this paper analyzes the operation characteristics of a CVCF-inverter-based micro-grid when energy sinking occurs and proposes a transient operation strategy to prevent shut-down of the CVCF inverter. A test device of a 30-kW CVCF-inverter-based micro-grid was implemented, and the transient operation characteristics for the energy sinking phenomenon are presented. The simulation results confirm that blackout can be properly prevented according to the conditions of SOC and voltage in a CVCF battery.

The future energy consumption pattern will show a very different pattern from the present due to the increase of distributed power sources such as renewable energy and the birth of the concept of prosumers, etc. Accordingly, it can be predicted that the direction of establishment of an appropriate production and supply plan considering the stability and consumption efficiency of the entire power grid will also be different from now. This paper proposes a simulation model that can test a new operational strategy when faced with a number of possible future environments. Through the proposed model, it is possible to simulate and analyze power consumed and supplied in a future Smart Grid environment, in which a large amount of new concepts including energy storage service (ESS) and distributed energy resources (DER) will be added. In particular, it is possible to model complex systems structurally by using DEVS formalism among the ABM (Agent-Based Model) methodologies that can model decision-making for each agent existing in the grid, and several factors can be easily added to the grid. The simulation model was verified using given dataset in the current situation, and scenario analysis was performed by simply adding an ESS, one of the main elements of the smart grid, to the model.

소규모 풍력에너지, 연료전지 및 태양에너지 등의 신 재생에너지원들이 소규모 분산전원으로 도입되고 있다. 이로 인해, 수용가 측의 전원이 대규모 전력사업자로부터만 공급받던 시스템방식에서, 분산전원과 연계하여 동시에 사용하는 방식으로 바뀌고 있다. 이러한 분산전원이 계통에 도입될 경우 이로 인해 평상시 기존 계통의 보호방식에 미치는 영향의 경우는 상시전압변동, Flicker, 병해열로 인한 순시전압변동, 고조파, 불평형 등이 고려 될 수 있다. 또한 이러한 경우로 인해 보호계전기의 오동작도 초래 할 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 태양광시스템을 분산전원으로 하는 연계 계통을 모델링하여 발생하는 파형에 대해 분석한다. 또한 디지털 보호계전기의 디지털 필터링 기법을 비교하여 빠른 연산 속도와 주파수 응답 특성을 가지는 알고리즘을 선정하고 모델링하여 모델링 된 디지털 필터로 분산전원 연계를 통해 얻어진 파형을 필터링 한다. 본 논문에서 분산전원의 계통 모의는 전력계통에 모의에 높은 신뢰성을 가지는 PSCAD/EMTDC를 기반으로 하였으며, 디지털 보호계전기의 디지털 필터 알고리즘 모델링은 MATLAB을 사용하였다.
