매년 날씨가 추워지는 동절기에는 전기 사용량이 급증하는 특징을 보인다. 많은 전기를 사용하면서 인구 밀도가 높은 시장, 목욕탕, 아파트 등의 건물들의 전기 시설의 누전으로 인해 화재 발생이 늘어나고 있다. 이러한 누전화재의 원인은 대부분 전선의 노후화로 인해 사용량이 증가되어 과도하게 걸리는 부하를 견디지 못하고 전선피복이 녹아내려 주변의 발화물질로 인하여 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 과부하센서, VoC센서, 과열센서로 구성된 복합 센서를 통해 전선에 발생하는 부하 및 과열을 측정하며, 이 때 발생된 유독가스를 검출하고 게이트웨이를 활용하여 서버에 로깅하는 시스템을 구현한다. 이를 바탕으로 빅데이터 분석을 진행하여 실시간으로 전기화재를 예측, 경보 및 차단이 가능한 플랫폼과 모의 화재발생 실험이 가능한 시뮬레이터를 개발한다.

The impact evaluation of a DSM program is a very important issue since the results are used to determine the sustainability of a program. In general. to estimate the impacts of a DSM program it is required to measure the electricity usage changes before and after a program. Since the measurement-based approaches cost highly, most of the conventional evaluations are based on the average figures. However estimation of the average-based impacts can lead to both distorted results of over/under estimation of kW and kWh savings and non-optimal DSM planning. In this paper, we have developed a new multi-point measurement approach which can evaluate kW and kWh savings of a DSM program more exactly. To do this, the saving rate and operating rate are defined and set as the function of load factor of a customer, and these rates are incorporated with the conventional diffusion function of Bass to project the future impacts of a DSM program. The case study is performed on the inverter program of Korea by using the suggested approach.

Wind energy is rapidly becoming significant generating technologies in electricity markets. As probabilistic nature of wind energy creates many uncertainties in the short-term scheduling, additional actions for reliable market operation should be taken. This paper presents a novel approach to evaluate ramping capability requirement for changes in imbalance energy between day-ahead market and real-time market due to uncertainty of wind generation as well as system load. Dynamic ramp rate model has been applied for realistic solution in unit commitment problem, which is implemented in day-ahead market. Probabilistic optimal power flow has been used to verify ramping capability determined by the proposed method is reasonable in economic and reliable aspects. This approach was tested on six-bus system and IEEE 118-bus system with a wind farm. The results show that the proposed approach provides ramping capability information to meet both forecasted variability and desired confidence level of anticipated uncertainty.

수직 통합된 체제의 전력회사가 6개의 발전회사와 1개의 판매회사로 분리되고 전력거래소를 통한 전력거래가 본격화되면서 발전회사는 자체 소유 발전설비의 공급가능용량을 어떻게 활용하느냐에 따라 영업상 수익의 영향을 받게 된다. 특히, 하루 전 발표되는 한계가격(System Marginal Price, Base Load Marginal Price)에 맞도록 전력생산을 위한 발전 비용함수를 적용한다면 익일의 공급가능용량이 최적 배분됨으로써, 변동비 반영 시장(Cost based Generation Pool)과 입찰가격 반영 발전시장(Price Bidding Generation Pool)에 적용될 계통운영보조서비스의 계약 물량 산출 및 익일 생산비용의 최적화를위한 입찰전략(Bidding Strategies) 수립이 가능해 지므로 보유 설비에 대한 최적이용이 가능하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 수요예측 오차와 과거 시장운영 실적을 기초로 년 간 유지보수 계획을 수립하고, 계통운영보조서비스에 대한 계약물량 산출과 개개 발전기의 비용함수 산출, 적용을 통한 발전설비의 효율적인 입찰 방안에 대해 논하고자 한다.

The study measures the resource use efficiency of diesel based power generation in the Maldives and analyses factors which influence efficiency levels. Stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) technique is applied to data on 30 plants over two year period from 2016 to 2017. The study finds that technical efficiency scores varies from 0.44 to 0.98 across power plants. About 33 percent of the plants have scores below the mean technical efficiency score of 0.87. Empirical results indicate ownership and use of solar photovoltaic (PV) have an influence on improving efficiency levels. Privately owned power plants in resort islands obtained higher technical efficiency scores compared to public and community owned power plants. This is a significant finding as the first study that used power plants in tourist sector in a comparative study. Size of the power plants was not found significant, but relatively small installed capacities can also be efficient. This finding is important because in many inhabited islands installed capacities remain oversized compared to the load. The benchmarking exercise offers model power plants that are relatively efficient, for other power plants and policy makers in small islands to learn from.

As electricity consumption is increasing rapidly these days, an urgent. need exists to minimize consumption through smart and intelligent ways in order to prevent a future energy crisis. For this purpose, development of an intelligent peak power management system should be required. As the number of appliances and consumer electrical devices increase, power consumption in unit business tends to grow. Generally, electricity consumption can be minimized using a peak power management system capable of. effectively controlling the load power by continuously monitoring the power. In this work, a peak power management system which consists of arduino microprocessor equipped with ethernet and Zigbee shield is presented. To verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme, laboratory-scale experiments are carried out.

In recent years, decentralized power have been increasing due to environmental problems, liberalization of electricity markets and technological developments. These changes have led to the evolution of power generation, transmission, and distribution into discrete sectors and the division of integrated power systems. Therefore, studies are underway to efficiently supply power and reduce losses to each sector's demand. This is a major concern for system planners and operators, as it accounts for a relatively high proportion of total power, with a transmission and distribution loss of 4-6%. Therefore, this paper analyzes the status of loss management based on the current transmission and distribution loss rate of each country and transmission loss management cases of each national power company, and proposes a loss rate prediction algorithm according to the long-term transmission system plan. The proposed algorithm predicts the demand-based long-term evolution and the loss rate of the grid to which the transmission plan is applied.

Restructuring of electricity industry is going on for the purpose of introducing competition and after separation of generation and retail business and introduction of competition, substantial change is expected in overall electric power system. In other words, DSM projects are divided with public projects and private projects. Particularly for public project, it is essential to evaluate the DSM volumes by program. This paper tries to derive the ways for achieving the necessary DSM goal in the electricity industry in Korea. First of all, by analyzing the load in Korea, we forecast the standard demand and estimate the technological potentials of each program in considering DSM technological indicators. Moreover, by using economic analysis by program, we estimate economic potentials and finally, we estimate the potentials by program in considering the DSM policy. We estimate the potentials by using random method because application methodology and procedures by program are not established until now, which leads to not obtaining transparency for implementation effect by program. Therefore, this paper estimates the future potentials of DSM projects by using the logical and systematic analytic method and establishing database for DSM basic indicator. The DSM goals estimated by this method will be reflected to mid/long term nation-wide resource planning, which will mitigate anticipated power supply shortage and be applied to derive desirable energy demand/supply structure.

With the development of smart grid technology, it has become a hotspot to increase benefits of both residential users and electric power companies through demand response technology and interactive technology. In this paper, the game theory is introduced to the interaction between residential users and an electric company, making a mutually beneficial situation for the two. This paper solves the problem of electricity pricing and load shifting in the interactive behavior by building the game-theoretic process, proposing the interaction strategy and doing the optimization. In the simulation results, the residential users decrease their cost by 11% mainly through shifting the thermal loads and the electric company improves its benefits by 5.6% though electricity pricing. Simulation analysis verifies the validity of the proposed method and shows great revenue for the economy of both sides.
