How to maintain the optimal electric power generation mix is one of the important problems in electric power industry. The objective of this study is to develop a computer model which can be used to forecast the investment in power generation unit by the plant owners after restructuring of electric power industry. Restructuring of electric power industry will make difference in decision making process of investment in power generation unit. After Privatiazation of Power Industry, Gencos will think that profit is the most important factor among all others attracting the investment in the industry. Coal power generation is better than LNG CCGT in terms of profit. However, many studies show that LNG CCGT will be main electric power generation source because the rest of factors other than profit in LNG CCGT are superior than Coal power generation. The impacts of the various government policies can be analyzed using the computer model, thus the government can formulate effective policies for achieving the desired electric power generation mix.

The issue of the relationship between environmental degradation and human health has been widely addressed by medical doctors. However, economists have sparsely debated it. The release of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air can cause several environmental problems and, thus, it can affect human health. Therefore, it is imperative to examine the effect of CO2 emissions on life expectancy in the D-8 countries (Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, and Turkey) from 1992 to 2017. The panel ARDL method is employed and, then, the PMG estimator is selected. The results show that economic growth, population growth and health expenditure can significantly and positively affect life expectancy, but CO2 emissions can have a significant and negative effect on life expectancy. Since, the major findings reveal that life expectancy can be explained by CO2 emissions. Hence, it is important to formulate policies on reducing CO2 emissions so that life expectancy will not be affected. Energy diversification policies should be formulated or improved in some countries. This is to ensure that the countries are not highly dependent on non-renewable energy that can harm the environment. The government should increase its expenditure on the health sector to save more lives by extend human lifespan.

Recently, various renewable systems have been developed and applied in Korea. However, there are many systems which were not utilized in real buildings or not widely spread in the market. Furthermore, the attention of most users focused on several certain system such as PV or solar system. Therefore, this research aims to find user's needs for renewable energy based on perception surveys to improve the acceptance of technology in line with the world's energy flow. The survey was conducted by classifying respondents by various criteria, and the results were analyzed using AHP technique and CVM technique, focusing on preference and acceptance. According to the results of the survey, it was found that the people felt the need for renewable energy but lacked knowledge about renewable energy compared to the various government-implemented renewable energy supply policies. Therefore, a government-level policy is needed so that the people can have universal knowledge about renewable energy system.

건축물에서 소비되는 에너지의 체계적이고 지속적인 모니터링과 관리는 건물의 열효율을 산정하여 등급화하기 위해 중요하고, 궁극적으로 기후변화에 대처하고 환경 및 에너지 수급 정책의 효과적 수립을 목표로 하고 있다. 전 세계적으로 건축물은 총 에너지의 36%를 소비하고 있으며, 이산화탄소 배출량은 39%를 점유하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 건축물 등급제에 필수적인 건축물에서 방출되는 온도측정을 위해 드론 열적외선(TIR: thermal infrared) 영상을 이용하여 사진측량 기법으로 건물을 모델링하고 3차원 열공간 모델(thermo-spatial model)을 생성하여 분석하는 방안을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위해 드론에 탑재된 열적외선 센서로부터 촬영한 광학 및 TIR 영상으로 항공삼각측량을 수행하여 모델링의 정확도를 비교 분석하였다. TIR 영상의 공간 및 방사 해상도는 광학영상에 비해 낮으므로 3D 건물 모델링의 객체 형태는 상대적으로 부정확하지만, 공간정보기반의 건축물 열에너지 측정을 위해 효과적으로 사용될 수 있으므로 사진측량 기술의 다양한 분야로의 응용을 제시한 것으로 의의가 있다고 판단된다. 열공간 모델은 건축물에서 방출되는 온도를 기반으로 소비되는 에너지를 정량적으로 산정하여 개별 건물의 에너지 등급을 책정하기 위한 기본 정보로 사용될 것으로 판단된다.

Cloud computing represent a new era of computing that's forms through the combination of service-oriented architecture (SOA), Internet and grid computing with virtualization technology. Virtualization is a concept through which every cloud is enable to provide on-demand services to the users. Most IT service provider adopt cloud based services for their users to meet the high demand of computation, as it is most flexible, reliable and scalable technology. Energy based performance tradeoff become the main challenge in cloud computing, as its acceptance and popularity increases day by day. Cloud data centers required a huge amount of power supply to the virtualization of servers for maintain on- demand high computing. High power demand increase the energy cost of service providers as well as it also harm the environment through the emission of CO₂. An optimization of cloud computing based on energy-performance tradeoff is required to obtain the balance between energy saving and QoS (quality of services) policies of cloud. A study about power usage of resources in cloud data centers based on workload assign to them, says that an idle server consume near about 50% of its peak utilization power [1]. Therefore, more number of underutilized servers in any cloud data center is responsible to reduce the energy performance tradeoff. To handle this issue, a lots of research proposed as energy efficient algorithms for minimize the consumption of energy and also maintain the SLA (service level agreement) at a satisfactory level. VM (virtual machine) consolidation is one such technique that ensured about the balance of energy based SLA. In the scope of this paper, we explore reinforcement with fuzzy logic (RFL) for VM consolidation to achieve energy based SLA. In this proposed RFL based active VM consolidation, the primary objective is to manage physical server (PS) nodes in order to avoid over-utilized and under-utilized, and to optimize the placement of VMs. A dynamic threshold (based on RFL) is proposed for over-utilized PS detection. For over-utilized PS, a VM selection policy based on fuzzy logic is proposed, which selects VM for migration to maintain the balance of SLA. Additionally, it incorporate VM placement policy through categorization of non-overutilized servers as- balanced, under-utilized and critical. CloudSim toolkit is used to simulate the proposed work on real-world work load traces of CoMon Project define by PlanetLab. Simulation results shows that the proposed policies is most energy efficient compared to others in terms of reduction in both electricity usage and SLA violation.

Revolution of Shale gas literally brings about great changes in many spheres. In the past most academic research had been focused on the influence and innovative change in term of economic perspective. But nowadays we should more concern about the security approach and perspective as its status of the future's core energy resources. Revolution of Shale gas has an great influence on the reshaping of global and regional alliance order. There are many international political implications as follows. Contribution of energy hegemony with leading U.S.; Acting as strategic leverage on the reshaping international order; Deepening competition among major states on the construction of energy security and so on. We'd better make a good solution and systematic policies which are preparing for the Shale gas's revolution period including on the understanding about the change on the global energy structure and making a national policy agenda of energy security issues and so on. The thesis like 'to get the energy resources is to get the hegemonic power in the world' will persist. The same holds good of Shale gas case. To meet the revolution of shale gas era, we have important tasks as like making an opportunity to develope not only regional but also international prosperity.
