It is essential to introduce EERS (Energy Efficiency Resource Standards) according to the trend of the era in which energy saving is emphasized, and it is time to settle down in a stable manner. Electric motors and lighting devices, which account for more than 60% of the nation's electricity use, are the most effective items of the EERS. And accurate methods of calculating savings must be preceded. In this study, the operation rate and load rate are measured through the demonstration of energy use at 400 businesses and the measured rates are used for EERS savings calculation. The results imply that the proposed method can be successfully applied to calculate cost-effective and reliable energy savings.

An Energy Efficiency Resource Standards (EERS) is a simple, market-based mechanism to encourage more efficient generation, transmission, and use of electricity, natural gas and heat. An EERS consists of electric, gas and/or heating energy savings targets for utilities, often with flexibility to achieve the target through a market-based trading system. In this paper, we make persons acquainted with EERS programs of foreign countries in these days. And we analyze domestic energy demand side management (DSM) programs in order to introduce an EERS program into the country successfully. Energy efficiency potential calculated in 2007 is one of the important factors for establishing an EERS program domestically. This study may provide basic data to set the amount of energy saving when an EERS program would be phased in.

This paper presents an in-depth review for current status for demand-side management (DSM) investment of energy supplier and an useful prospect on the introduction of Energy Efficiency Resource Standards (EERS). According to the Article 9 of Rational Energy Utilization Act, Energy suppliers-Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), Korea Gas Corporation (KOGAS) and Korea District Heat Corporation (KDHC) prescribed by Presidential Decree-must establish and implement annual demand-side management investment plan to improve energy efficiency in production, transformation, transportation, storage and usage of corresponding energy and to reduce demand and green house gas emissions. In this paper, we examine the DSM programs of energy suppliers and the results of DSM investment in 2009, then we propose a reasonable solution for the development of DSM investment. Furthermore, in order to compare our situation, the case studies were conducted on EERS issues in England, Italy, France and U.S, such as establishing the energy saving target, selecting the target energy supplier, and penalty and incentive mechanisms. Throughout the case studies, this paper suggests the directions to the DSM investment planning of energy suppliers and the major issues to prepare EERS in Korea.

고유가, 화석연료의 고갈, 환경문제의 대두에 따라 전세계적으로 이에 대응을 위한 다양한 에너지절감 시책들이 전개되고 있다. 이중 에너지공급자에게 의무 목표량을 부과하고 에너지효율향상을 통하여 에너지 절감을 이끌어 내는 에너지효율향상의무화제도(EERS)라는 강력한 정책이 미국 및 유럽 내의 여러 지역에서 시행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 국내도입을 위한 EERS의 현황 및 에너지효율향상 프로그램의 시행촉진과 에너지 공급자의 수익감소를 보전해주는 수단인 디커플링 메커니즘의 개요와 그 시행사례를 살펴보고 국내 시사점에 대하여 고찰해 보고자 한다.

에너지안보와 기후변화에의 대응을 위한 에너지 효율향상은 다른 에너지대안에 비하여 가장 비용 효과적으로 에너지 절감을 이끌어 낼 수 있는 시책으로 에너지원의 새로운 개발과도 동일한 의미를 부여할 수 있다. 다양한 에너지 효율향상 시책 중 에너지효율향상 의무화제도(EERS)는 전력 및 천연가스를 보다 효율적으로 생산/전달/이용하기 위한 단순하면서도 시장경제에 기반한 메커니즘으로 정부가 설정한 에너지효율 개선 목표를 지역 내 전력/가스 공급업체들에게 배분하여 의무적으로 목표를 달성토록 요구하고, 미달성시 범칙금(penalty)를 부과하거나 크레딧(credit)을 통해 거래시장에서 미달목표량에 해당하는 인증서를 확보하도록 하여 국가 전체적인 에너지 효율을 개선시키는 제도이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 시행되고 있는 EERS의 개요 및 다양한 사례들의 검토를 통해 시사점을 도출하여 국내도입 필요성에 대하여 언급하고자 한다.

This paper suggest mandatory target predestinator of natural gas wholesale and retail provider will set appropriate target. To analysis natural gas energy saving trend forecast, reduce natural gas forecast and using technology and forecast analysis for equipment is draw based on result of developing tool that more detailed gas field. Also this paper calculate effect on energy saving through various scenarios, efficiency consideration of gas equipment and subsidy condition.

[Purpose] The goal of this study was to review data on physical activity level (PAL), a crucial index for determining estimated energy requirement (EER), calculated as total energy expenditure (TEE, assessed with doubly labeled water [DLW]) divided by resting metabolic rate (RMR, PAL = TEE/RMR) in female athletes and to understand the methods of assessing athletes' EERs in the field. [Methods] For the PAL data review among female athletes, we conducted a PubMed search of the available literature related to the DLW method. DLW studies measuring TEE and RMR were included for the present review. [Results] Briefly, the mean PAL was 1.71 for collegiate swimmers with moderate training, which was relatively low, but the mean PAL was 3.0 for elite swimmers during summer training camp. This shows that PAL can largely vary even within the same sport depending on the amount of training, and the differences in PAL were remarkable depending on the sport. Aside from the DLW method, there is currently no research tool related to athletes' EERs that can be used in the field. [Conclusion] Briefly, the mean PAL was 1.71 for collegiate swimmers with moderate training, which was relatively low, but the mean PAL was 3.0 for elite swimmers during summer training camp. This shows that PAL can largely vary even within the same sport depending on the amount of training, and the differences in PAL were remarkable depending on the sport. Aside from the DLW method, there is currently no research tool related to athletes' EERs that can be used in the field.

지속적인 고유가의 영향으로 에너지절약에 대한 국민적 참여가 적극적으로 이루어지고 있는 가운데 최근 선진 수요관리 제도인 EERS라는 도입에 대한 관심도 증가하고 있어 이 제도를 독자들에게 소개하고자 한다. EERS는 에너지 효율향상을 에너지공급자가 에너지소비자에게 제공하는 수요관리제도라는 측면에서 새로운 방향점을 제시할 것으로 기대된다. 총 에너지의 97%를 해외에서 수입하고 있는 대표적인 에너지 수입국인 대한민국은 2010년 에너지수입액이 1,217억불로 반도체 및 자동차 수출액 합계인 861억불을 넘는 세계 에너지 소비 10위국이다. 따라서 에너지소비를 감소시키기 위한 노력이 절실하며, 이보다 중요한 것이 에너지효율향상이다.
