Nowadays, considering global warming and enhanced prohibition to discharge pollutants at sea, all of existing operation-ships must lead to the reduction of fuel consumption. International standards of International Maritime Organization and EU rules governing harbor pollutants are being strengthened. Therefore, ship-owners and operators are seeking ways to reduce $CO_2$, SOx, and NOx emissions. Although world trade continues to expand, total fuel usage for sea transport tends to diminish. However, ICS(International Chamber of Shipping) has set a goal of reducing $CO_2$ emissions from shipping by 50% until 2050. In addition, with respect to the Paris Climate Change Accord in 2015, IMO proposes to set up a reduction target of GHG emission from existing operation-ships. For setting up a reduction target of GHG from international maritime transport, "A data collection system for fuel consumption" will be introduced in the near future. In order to effectively reduce the use of fuel in a ship in accordance with the trend of compulsory fuel saving from operation ships, this paper suggested adoption of an Incentive-Penalty scheme based on Emission-Trading-Scheme, Carbon Tax, and basic calculation formula after verifying the EEOI level for a year.

Globally, in accordance with the goals set forth in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, each country has established and declared a reduction target for carbon neutrality by 2050. The roadmaps for establishing long-term greenhouse gas emissions development strategies and setting reduction targets have been announced. As the international community accelerates the transition to the net-zero society, 128 countries have declared net-zero by the end of 2020, and the net-zero declaration continues to expand around G20 member states. In December 2020, Korea announced the "2050 Net-zero Strategy" to establish a foundation for simultaneously achieving carbon reduction, economic growth, and improved quality of life for the people through active response to the net-zero, and pursuing policy tasks in stages to do this. Comprehensive carbon management is insufficient due to the lack of comprehensive carbon management due to the departure from the areas of mandatory reduction, such as the GHG energy target management system and the GHG emissions trading offset system implemented to reduce greenhouse gases in Korea. Currently, there is no cases for estimation or calculation of carbon dioxide emissions for the Mine Reclamation projects. It is reviewed the standard methods proposed by domestic and foreign carbon emission calculation methods and proposed appropriate carbon emission estimation methods for the Mine Reclamation projects in this study.

Out of all the possible actions that can be taken to respond to greenhouse gas reduction, including development of greenhouse gas reduction technology, infrastructure, actions to improve energy saving and efficiency, and offset with carbon emission reductions (CERs), this study shall focus on the investment on CERs. This study will take a look at risks involved with investing in CERs such as UN registration refusal risk and CERs price fluctuation, and will design risk management model which shall be verified. The goal of this paper is to provide optimized CERs investment strategies for different types of investors, such as general trading companies seeking for investment opportunities and financial companies with plans for green products development and investment by preparation for carbon market. It is expected that the global competitiveness of domestic financial companies shall be improved by taking actions on carbon market instead of previous passive response to climate change and that Korea, the number two Carbon Emissions supplier and number one derivatives market in terms of volume, shall be able to lead the worldwide carbon market.

Gartner에 따르면 현재 IT산업에서 배출하는 Co2의양은 전 세계 배출량의 2%에 해당하고, 국내 IT기기의 탄소 배출량은 1,750만톤, 2012년에는 2,110만 톤으로 증가할 것으로 예상하고 있다. 이 중 전 세계 기업의 전산설지 전력 소비량은 1척억kWh가 소모되고 있으며, 서버의 전력소모량은 매년 20%씩 증가할 것으로 보고 있다. 또한 IT 시설물은 이산화탄소가 배출되는 7%의 가장 높은 비율을 차지하고 있다. 이에 따라 에너지 경비 절감 및 효율성을 높이고 탄소 배출량 감소를 위한 기술 및 솔루션 개발을 위한 그린 IT기술의 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 이러한 IT 시설물의 에너지 사용량을 실시간으로 확인, 온 습도 센서를 통한 자료 분석을 통하여 대상시설에 맞는 탄소배출량을 환산하여, 이를 활용한 에너지 시설의 제어를 통해 탄소배출과 경비를 절감시키는 시스템이 스마트탄소 통합관제시스템이다. 그리하여 본 논문에서는 통신 프로토콜 단에서부터 '관제'시스템의 성격에 맞고, 저장소의 공간을 효율적이고, 탄소 배출량을 감축시키는데 일조하는 스마트탄소 통합관제시스템의 프로토콜을 설계하고, 이를 테스트 하였다.

To assess the feasibility of 'low carbon, sustainable growth' policy pursued of the Chinese government, this paper first measures technical efficiency, $CO_2$ shadow prices, and indirect Morishima elasticity of substitution between capital and energy for 24 of manufacturing sectors in Beijing and Chongqing, in which China launched pilot carbon emissions trading scheme, by estimating the input distance function. Based on these results, then the potential for $CO_2$ reduction, cost savings from emissions trading, and the effectiveness of capital investment in reducing $CO_2$ are compared across industries and provinces. In 2010, manufacturing industries in Beijing and Chongqing could potentially reduce the largest $CO_2$ emissions, amounting 5.2 and 17 million tons, respectively, by achieving 100% technical efficiency. While, on average, Chongqing has a comparative advantage in the cost savings from carbon trading over Beijing, Beijing is more likely to reduce $CO_2$ by expanding capital investment.

Recently, nations around the world are putting various efforts in many aspects to decrease greenhouse gases and international cooperation is urgently required. As part of these efforts, the shipping industry is working towords establishing "green parts" that reduce the carbon content of the greenhouse gases emitted in ports and can also decrease the operating costs. This study has tried to look for how to supply shore power instead of suppling ship's own generated power as a basic researches for reduction of carbon emissions and construction of "green parts" system. And in this paper, the training ship 'SAENURI' of Mokpo Maritime University under actual operation was selected to investigate for environmental and expense effects. The results of this study showed that $CO_2$ emissions Mere reduced 34% and operating costs Mere reduced approximately 31% in case of using the shore paper.

최근 주요 기업들을 대상으로 전력 사용을 100% 재생에너지로 전환하자는 RE100 캠페인이 국내외에서 뜨거운 관심을 받고 있다. 2019년 12월 기준으로는 Apple, BMW Group 등 전 세계 211개 기업이 RE100 캠페인에 참여한 것으로 알려져 있다. RE100이 확산됨에 따라 해외 RE100 기업이 국내 협력기업에게도 재생에너지 사용을 요청하는 사례가 발생하고 있는데, 국내는 RE100 도입을 위한 전력거래제도가 마련되지 않았고, 재생에너지 발전원가가 높아 당장의 RE100 이행은 어려운 상황이다. 이에 따라, 장차 RE100이 국내 기업에 무역장벽으로 작용할 가능성이 제기되고 있어 본고에서는 RE100의 현황과 RE100 도입 비용을 낮추는 방안으로써 RE100과 탄소배출권의 연계에 대해 논의하고자 한다. 이를 통해 탄소배출권과 연계한 RE100 이행이 가능해지는 경우, 국내 재생에너지 보급 확대 및 국가 탄소배출 감축 계획 이행에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.
