According to the Global Wind Report of the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) in 2017, global wind power electricity generation capacity has been dramatically developing from 23,900 MW in 2001 to 486,790 MW in 2016. However, wind power generation in South Korea accounts for only 0.2 % of total power generation. Nonetheless, electricity production by wind power generation is soon expected to reach the grid parity where the cost of generating electricity by wind power is equal to the cost of fossil fuels such as oil. In this study, we analyzed the criteria of vessel traffic and fishing activities of major offshore wind farms in Europe where 88 % of the offshore wind power facilities are located. Finally, we suggest critical considerations based on the analysis.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of fishery in offshore wind farms and evaluate the risk linked to the presence of turbines and submarine cables in these areas. With this objective, we studied an offshore wind farm in the Southwest Sea and the current state of vessels in the surrounding National Fishing Port. The risk assessment criteria for 22 fishing gears and methods were set by referring to the fishing boats; thereafter, the risk was assessed by experts. The fishing gears and methods that could be safely operated (i.e., associated with low risk) in the offshore wind farm were: single-line fishing, jigging, and the anchovy lift net. The risk was normal so that it is possible to operate, but the fishing gears and methods that need attention are: the set long line, drifting long line, troll line, squid rip hook, octopus pot, webfoot octopus pot, coastal fish pot, stow net on stake, winged stow net, stationary gill net, and drift gill net. Moreover, the fishing gears and methods difficult to operate in the of shore wind farm (i.e., associated with high risk) were: the dredge, beam trawl, and purse seine. Finally, those associated with very high risk and that should not be allowed in offshore wind farms were: the stow net, anchovy drag net, otter trawl, Danish seine, and bottom pair trawl.

Recently, the share of wind power in energy markets has sharply increased with the active development of renewable energy internationally. In particular, large-scale wind farms are being developed far from the coast to make use of abundant wind resources and to reduce noise pollution. In addition to the electromagnetic interference (EMI) caused by offshore wind farms to coastal or air surveillance radars, it is necessary to investigate the EMI on global maritime distress and safety system (GMDSS) communications between ship and coastal stations. For this purpose, this study investigates whether the transmitted field of MF/HF band from a ship would be subject to interference or attenuation below the threshold at a coastal receiver. First, using geographic information system digital maps and 3D CAD models of wind turbines, the area of interest is electromagnetically modeled with patch models. Although high frequency analysis methods like Physical Optics are appropriate to analyze wide areas compared to its wavelength, the high frequency analysis method is first verified with an accurate low frequency analysis method by simplifying the surrounding area and turbines. As a result, the received wave power is almost the same regardless of whether the wind farms are located between ships and coastal stations. From this result, although wind turbines are large structures, the size is only a few wavelengths, so it does not interfere with the electric field of MF/HF distress communications.

풍력발전시스템은 제품에 대한 실증이 반드시 현장에서 이루어져야 하는 특성을 가지고 있으며 향후 국내실정에 적합한 풍력발전시스템의 개발과 보급을 위해서도 실증연구는 선행조건으로 볼 수 있다. 따라서 국제 규격에 합당한 풍력발전 성능평가와 현장 실증연구를 수행할 수 있는 실증단지를 국내에 조성하는 것이 매우 시급한 실정으로, 기초적인 자원분석과 주변환경평가 등을 거치면서 기본적인 실증단지 후보지들을 비교하여 최종 후보지로 선정된 전북 새만금지역, 병곡 영해 평야지구, 제주 동부해안지역 월정지구, 서부 해안지역 월령지구에 대하여 부지의 IEC 규격 적합성 검토, 인프라구축에 대한 적정성 검토, 주변 발전단지 조성가능성 및 발전사업에 대한 연계성 검토, 육해상 실증단지 구축 동일지 역 가능성 검토, 교육과 홍보에 대한 접근성 및 공사에 대한 접근성 검토, 부지 확장 및 향후 실증단지 운영과 관련하여 지자체와의 연계성 검토를 하였다.

Offshore wind power is a representative renewable energy source and a rapidly growing industry. In Gyeongsangnam-do, offshore wind farms of 461.9MW are being pushed for in the Yokji island and are expected to expand further to over 1GW in the future. Accordingly, ports supporting the storage, assembly, transportation, and installation of offshore wind power equipment are expected to play an important role in the smooth progress of the offshore wind farm development project. Based on previous research and cases in major countries,this study prepared criteria for assessment of ports supporting offshore wind farmsand evaluated ports in Gyeongsangnam-do, which are linked to Yokji island offshore wind farms. The assessment criteria have been subdivided into distance from the offshore wind farm, port entry and exit restrictions, navigational areas, fishery rights factors, additional costs, berth length, depth of berth, size of the port yard, port berth bearing pressure, interference with other cargo, a civil appeal, and relevant industrial aggregation. The ports of Tongyeong, Samcheonpo, Kohyun, Masan, and Jinhae in Gyeongsangnam-do were selected and evaluated. As a result, the port of Tongyoung was superior in terms of distance from the Yokji island offshore wind farm. The ports of Samcheonpo, Masan, and Jinhae were evaluated as excellent in other criteria such as berth length, depth of berth, and so on. This study is expected to be used as a source of basic data for offshore wind power companies and policymakers to select and evaluate the supporting ports of offshore wind farms.

At a time when it is urgent to establish a management system for landscape quality assessment of offshore wind farms in Korea, we analyzed foreign cases to draw implications for improving the landscape quality assessment of offshore wind farms in Korea and to explore the direction of efficient landscape assessment. The main contents derived from the analysis of overseas cases and systems are as follows. First, offshore wind farms are large-scale projects, and it is necessary to consider the landscape from the pre-planning stage, as in overseas cases. Second, the evaluation items for marine landscape quality should be expanded and systematized. Third, a flexible evaluation system that can consider new landscape impacts is required. In order to identify the landscape impacts of offshore wind farm projects, we refer to the landscape assessment items and procedures derived from overseas cases, but reflect them appropriately to the domestic maritime conditions, and specifically introduce a plan to minimize the landscape impacts that may occur during offshore wind farm projects to contribute to the sustainable use of offshore wind power.

본고에서는 유럽, 미국, 일본에서 활발하게 수행되고 있는 해상 풍력발전시스템을 위한 부유식 플랫폼에 대한 연구활동 및 기술내용에 대해서 논하고자 한다. 아직까지 부유식 해상 풍력발전 시스템이 실증되지는 않았지만 현재 실증을 추진하고 있으며, 앞으로 늦어도 10년 내에 부유식 해상풍력 발전단지의 조성이 가시화 될 것으로 예상하고 있다. 본고를 통하여 지금까지 부유식 해상풍력 발전시스템으로 제안된 여러 가지 형태의 개념설계안을 검토하였다. 육지 면적이 좁고 인구밀도가 높은 반면에 삼면이 바다로 둘러싸여 있는 우리나라에서도 부유식 해상 풍력발전 시스템 기술개발이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 이를 위하여 우선적으로 풍력발전 시스템 자체의 성능을 예측하고 해석할 수 있는 프로그램의 개발과 해상에서 이를 지지하는 플랫폼의 거동예측 프로그램을 결합한 시스템적인 설계해석 프로그램의 자체개발 및 보유가 필요하다. 이를 위해서는 풍력발전 분야의 전문가들뿐만 아니라 플랫폼을 설계할 수 있는 해양공학 분야의 전문가들과의 융합연구가 요망된다.

국내 해역의 해상풍력 개발 가능량을 평가하기 위하여 풍황, 수심 등을 고려하여 개발 가능량을 추정하였다. 풍력등급 3 이상, 수심 50 m 이내의 영역에 대하여 사회.환경적 영향을 고려하기 위한 제약조건을 반영하여 개발 가능량을 산출하였으며, 현재의 기술수준으로 개발 가능하다고 판단되는 수심 30 m 이내의 영역에 대한 개발 가능용량이 약 11 GW 정도로 추정됨에 따라 풍력발전 용량을 2030년까지 7.3 GW 이상 확보하고자 하는 국가 신재생에너지 보급목표의 달성 가능성이 기대된다. 본 연구결과는 해상풍력 개발단지 선정을 위한 기초 자료로 활용되며, 입지 선정 후 기상관측, 환경영향조사 등의 세분화된 단지조사를 통한 해상풍력 실증단지 설계 및 경제성 평가 등이 계속 진행될 예정이다.
