The purposes of this study is to develop a domestic MARKAL(MARKet ALlocation) model with construction of database system to find the technology mix for the electricity generation market in Korea. The MARKAL model is officially used for national energy system optimization in the International Energy Agency(IEA), and the role is becoming more important in relation to analyze the greenhouse gas mitigation potential and to evaluate the technologies. Four scenarios specially emphasized on the greenhouse gas reduction and technology mix of electric generation were applied, each of them covering the analysis periods between 2004 and 2040.
