The Malaysian biogas upgrading technologies and policies were examined. In Malaysia, the regulation of palm oil mill effluent (POME) has been enforced to reduce the biochemical oxygen demand to 20 ppm and the biogas capture in the palm oil mills have been recently enforced for renewable energy. A huge amount of organic waste is produced from POME, and 80 million tons from palm oil trees, every year. Due to the renewable energy trends, the Malaysian government is modifying the use of biogases as fuels in favor of their conversion into compressed natural gas (CNG) and other chemicals; various green policies are being promoted because of many advantages of the organic substances. The Korean policies for biogas are a good model for exporting environmental plants after upgrading the digestion and purification technologies. Therefore, this article introduces the current status of POME and biogas production in Malaysia, it could encourage creating a new market for biomethane.

As the government set the direction for Green Growth recently, so local government struggles to obtain carbon emissions trading. In the center of this global environment atmosphere, the quantitative targets would be suggested by some developed countries. In case of a international green movement like this, it would have been being induced from by crystallizing of economic and environmental regulations and legal policies that not only a meter-rate system of carbon emissions but also application for regenerate energy. In this paper, we researched cultivating of energy storage system(ESS) to conjugate regenerative energy of train, an energy efficiency and cultivating cost etc. In conclusion, we would acknowledge a difficulty in cultivating ESS only for cost reduction of energy consumption, so governmental policies for green growth should be thoughtfully examined.

This Paper discusses a theoretical approach to assess the acceptability on nuclear energy facili-ties and policies, that is associated with derivation of indicators influencing perception on the nuclear energy. Facets of the public perception include the necessity of nuclear energy, expected benefits and costs, possi-bility of control, nuclear energy risk sentiment level, and equality between present and future generations. It also identifies indicators directly or indirectly affecting the perception facets and classifies them into the knowledge-based and the trust-based. Knowledge on nuclear energy facility is acquired on the foundation of the understanding of fact, through information, education, PR, and experience the media. Meanwhile, trust on nuclear energy Policies as value judgment on reality is built through legitimacy, communication, compensa-tion, participation, and the media. Multi-dimensional analysis on nuclear energy acceptability will provide a key to developing a more realistic and mutually agreeable policies and solving the imminent issues.

For the greenhouse 9as emissions' reduction of fossil fuel, the energy policy on the promotion of alternative energy should be implemented. Accordingly, national policies on the development and promotion of alternative energy were made, and related laws and regulations are being made, and comprehensive plans should be followed. The policies and strategies for promoting the renewable energy have been insufficient in comparison with those of the developed countries. This paper suggests the spread extension plan of renewable generation through generation development and priority purchase.

This paper reviewed laws and policies of renewable energy in Japan and China. Japan has enacted laws and implemented policies of renewable energy since 1980 for their energy security and environmental problem, and nowadays renewable energy is one of solutions for UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol. Japan plays a leading role in photovoltaic power generation. As second largest energy consumer, China generates a lot of pollution from their energy use. However Chinese government attempts to sustainable development among economy, society and environment, suggests to use renewable energy in the way to reduce pollution and improve living standards. Korea focused on renewable energy as one of motive power in Green Growth. Review for renewable energy policy of two countries gives Korean policy implication and helps "Green Growth", national theme of Korea.

Recently, Korea parliament legislated the Low Carbon Green Growth Act (April, 2012) and approved a bill (May, 2012) to start carbon emission trading system in 2015. It means that for the first time, government would regulate the amounts of carbon emission in private entities, and private entities should attain predefined emission reduction goals by implementing clean development mechanism (CDM) project or buy the Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) from the trading market to avoid penalty. Under these circumstances, it is not easy for them to determine when or how to implement the CDM project because the governmental energy policies about the level of governmental subsidies, periods for free emission allocation, etc. are still under discussion and the future price of the CERs is quite uncertain. Thus, this study presents a real-option based model to assess the financial viability of the CDM project which switches bunker-C oil to liquefied natural gas (LNG). The proposed model is expected to assist private entities in establishing the investment strategy for CDM project under uncertain government energy policies.

In 2000, the EU set up an energy policy related renewables use for electricity demand up to $22\%$ on the purpose of preventing energy exhaustion and world climate exchange. Technology development and energy production policy on coal, oil and natural gas focus on how to minimize their environmental effects since the world energy system will continue to be dominated by fossil fuels with almost $90\%$ of total energy supply in 2030. In the long run, the EU drives expansion policy of the renewable energy. If related policies and programs will show successful operation in the near future and will be resulted in increase of budget, we could expect the possibility of expansion of renewable energy market in Korea in the future.

This study compared and analyzed major policies and operational processes of countries that introduced the Renewable Energy Plan Site, through literature analysis of published governmet data, and previous research results. The procedures of the Renewable Energy Plan Site were classified into planned location designations, selection of power generation business operators, designation of the business' district and development and evaluating the factors derived for each procedure. Four contries were selected to be compared and analyzed, namely: Denmark, Germany, the United Kingdom and Japan. This was based on the criteria used to introduce and operate the Renewable Energy Plan Site, activate renewable energy supply and check the applicability of Korea's policies. It was analyzed that the priority of the planned location for the procedure was different for each country depending on the conditions there.

Many countries have recently been expanding efforts for low-carbon global economy to solve the problem of global warming. Development and research for various types of new reusable energy is on the rise throughout the world. The most promising source of energy is the solar photovoltaic energy and the government take an initiative to establish both short-term and long-term policies to develop the solar energy potential resource map. The solar energy and industrialize area researched by GIS methods for optimum site for solar power transfer system. This study attempts to address the hot issue of the development and suitability of the solar photovoltaic energy site using GIS spatial analysis. We need to analyze and describe the solar technology, green energy policies and the energy market trend of the field.

Most of countries are trying to increase the supply of renewable energy as the substitute of the fossil energy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However, renewable energy sources account for only about 3.86% of the total Korea primary energy supply. To increase the rate of renewable energy in Korea's energy consumption, various policies for expanding the use of renewable energy should be applied. Also these policies should be consider renewable energy resources distribution and regional inequality. In this study, the potentials of photovoltaic, wind power and bioenergy from rice straw, livestock waste and food waste are calculated and the distribution characteristic and regional inequalities are analyzed using Gini's coefficient and Gini decomposition method. As the results, technical potentials of photovoltaic and wind power of city region(Gu) has more potential rate than theoretical potentials. Livestock waste has the most unequal distribution (Gini's coefficient: 0.617) among renewable resources.
