Slope failures during rainfall have been observed in mountainous areas of South Korea as a result of the presence of solar power facilities. The seepage behavior and pore pressure distribution differ from typical slopes due to the presence of impermeable solar panels, and the load imposed by the solar power structures also affects the slope behavior. This study aims to develop a method for evaluating the stability of slopes with solar power facilities and to analyze vulnerable points by considering the maximum slope displacement. To assess the slope stability and predict behavior while considering rainfall seepage, a combined seepage analysis and finite difference method numerical analysis were employed. For the selected site, various variables were assumed, including parameters related to the Soil Water Characteristic Curve, strength parameters that satisfy the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion, soil properties, and topographic factors such as slope angle and bedrock depth. The factors with the most significant influence on the factor of safety (FOS) were identified. The presence of solar power facilities was found to affect the seepage distribution and FOS, resulting in a decreasing trend due to rainfall seepage. The maximum displacement points were concentrated near the upper (crest) and lower (toe) sections of the slope.

Analytical modeling of photovoltaic power systems has been receiving significant attentions in recent years in that it is easy to apply for prediction of its dynamics and fault detection and diagnosis in advanced engineering technologies. This paper presents a novel probabilistic modeling approach for such power systems with a big data sequence. Firstly, we express input/output function of photovoltaic power systems in which solar irradiation and ambient temperature are regarded as input variable and electric power is output variable respectively. Based on this functional relationship, conditional probability for these three random variables(such as irradiation, temperature, and electric power) is mathematically defined and its estimation is accomplished from ratio of numbers of all sample data to numbers of cases related to two input variables, which is efficient in particular for a big data sequence of photovoltaic powers systems. Lastly, we predict the output values from a probabilistic model of photovoltaic power systems by using the expectation theory. Two case studies are carried out for testing reliability of the proposed modeling methodology in this paper.

As the installation of solar panel accelerates, so does the number of solar panels reaching their end-of-life (EOL). However, the EOL solar panels is becoming a concern, as they contain potentially hazardous materials and are not easily recycled. Coping strategies such as effective collection, disposal, and recycling methods will be important to manage the growing number of EOL solar panels in the coming years.Therefore, many studies have focused on the development of EOL solar panel recycling technology. One recycling technology for EOL solar panels applicable to the construction field is the application of extracted tempered glass from EOL solar panels as construction materials. This study summarized the EOL solar panel disassembly technology and evaluated the mechanical properties of mortar using extracted tempered glass as fine aggregate. The results showed that when tempered glass was used as a fine aggregate in mortar, the compressive strength, flexural strength, and macro pores in the 1-3 ㎛ with 200-300 ㎛ range were affected, regardless of the disassembly technology of EOL solar panels. Especially, we found that the mechanical performance of mortar using chemically treated tempered glass was noticeably decreased due to changes in the chemical composition of the extracted tempered glass resulting from the removal of K₂O and CuO due to chemical reactions. Meanwhile, it was found that when fly ash was used as a binder, the reduction of mechanical performance could be alleviated.

The temporal and spatial distributions of surface solar radiation were calculated by the one layer solar radiative transfer model(GWNU) which was corrected by multi layer Line-by-Line(LBL) model during 2009 in South Korea. The aerosol optical thickness, ozone amount, cloud fraction and total precipitable water were used as the input data for GWNU model run and they were retrieved from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer(MODIS), Ozone Monitoring Instrument(OMI), MTSAT-1R satellite data and the Regional Data Assimilation Prediction System(RDAPS) model result, respectively. The surface solar radiation was calculated with 4 km spatial resolution in South Korea region using the GWNU model and the results were compared with surface measurement(by pyranometer) data of 22 KMA solar sites. The maximum values(more than $5,400MJ/m^2$) of model calculated annual solar radiation were found in Andong, Daegu and Jinju regions and these results were corresponded with the MTSAT-1R cloud amount data. However, the spatial distribution of surface measurement data was comparatively different from the model calculation because of the insufficient correction and management problems for the sites instruments(pyranometer).

온실가스 저감과 안정적인 에너지 확보를 위해, 정부는 신재생에너지 지원사업 정책을 보급보조사업(그린홈 100만호 사업, 일반보급보조사업, 지방보급사업)과 기반보조사업(발전차액지원제도, RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standard)시범사업)으로 나누어 수행하고 있다. 특히 최근 개정된 "신에너지 및 재생에너지 개발 이용 보급 촉진법"에서는 RPS도입을 염두에 두고, 1차에너지 공급 중 신재생에너지 공급의무 비율은 2015년까지 13%, 특히 태양에너지는 2015년 1,209GWh라는 목표를 제시하고 있다. 신재생에너지보급이 지역적 특성을 갖고, 신재생에너지원별 비용측면의 경쟁력에 차이가 남에 따라, 향후 RPS 도입시 예상되는 지역별 경쟁력 평가는 중요한 의미를 가질 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 이러한 목적에 따라 우선 그린홈 100만호 사업, 일반 및 지방보급사업의 경우, 설비용량 당 투자비의 분포를 살펴보았다. 그린홈 100만호 사업의 설비용량 당 투자비는 평균($\bar{X}$) 6,449,032원/KW, 표본오차(s) 358,743으로 나타났다. 낮은 설비용량 당 투자비를 가지는 사업설비는 경남(4,256,667원/KW), 광주(4,331,333원/KW) 등에 분포하였다. 그린홈 100만호 사업 이외의 survey 데이터는 다소 불비한 측면이 있으나 일반 및 지방보급사업의 경우, 지역별 설비용량 당 투자비 분포에 대한 평균($\bar{X}$)은 9,145,692원/KW, 9,336,695원/KW, 표본오차(S) 2,154,263, 470,945로 나타났다. 발전차액지원제도의 경우, 지역별 설비보급에 대한 분포는 전남 389개 사업설비의 소용량 사업이 집중적인 지원을 받고 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 에너지관리공단의 2009년 전수조사 내부자료인 국내 태양광사업의 현황을 분석함으로써, 태양광 사업에 가중치를 적용하는 RPS 도입 시, 보급경쟁력을 비교 분석하여 지역별, 설비별 사업투자를 위한 기초적인 가이드라인을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 연구과정에서 확인된 데이터 오류 및 자료 부재의 문제점 등은 향후 합당한 지역별, 설비별 비교분석을 위해 보완되어야 할 부분으로 지적한다.

Silicon carbide powder was prepared from carbon black and silicon recovered from waste solar panels. In the solar power generation market, the number of crystalline silicon modules exceeds 90%. As the expiration date of a photovoltaic module arrives, the development of technology for recovering and utilizing silicon is very important from an environmental and economic point of view. In this study, silicon was recovered as silicon carbide from waste solar panels: 99.99% silicon powder was recovered through purification from a 95.74% purity waste silicon wafer. To examine the synthesis characteristics of SiC powder, purified 99.99% silicon powder and carbon powder were mixed and heat-treated (1,300, 1,400 and 1,500 ℃) in an Ar atmosphere. The characteristics of silicon and silicon carbide powders were analyzed using particle size distribution analyzer, XRD, SEM, ICP, FT-IR, and Raman analysis.

For the Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) which will be launched in 2008, an algorithm for finding the precise location of the sun-glint point on the ocean surface is studied. The precise locations of the sun-glint are estimated by considering azimuth and elevation angles of Sun-satellite-Earth geometric position and the law of reflection. The obtained nonlinear equations are solved by using the Newton-Raphson method. As a result, when COMS is located at $116.2^{\circ}E$ or $128.2^{\circ}E$ longitude, the sun-glint covers region of ${\pm}10^{\circ}(N-S)$ latitude and $80-150^{\circ}(E-W)$ longitude. The diurnal path of the sun-glint in the southern hemisphere is curved towards the North Pole, and the path in the northern hemisphere is forwards the south pole. The algorithm presented in this paper can be applied to predict the precise location of sun-glint region in any other geostationary satellites.

In this paper, it is analysed the spectrum of optical fiber output through the sunlight collector system. As the result of the analysis, the sunlight collector system's UV distribution is lower then the sunlight'UV distribution. Also, the lighting environments under the optical fiber bundles are predicted when applied to the minimum workroom's(6${\times}$6${\times}$2.3[m]) interior lighting by using a lighting design program. In case of optical filer output\`s hight of 1.3[m], the illuminance value over 500[lx] in the area 50${\times}$50[cm] was achieved. As the result its feasibility as an interior lighting source shows no serious problem except the system cost.
