Green technologies are essential tools to ensure sustainable development of the economy. In this regard, the article deals with analysis of the development tendency of green economy in Kazakhstan emphasizing commercialization of green technologies. In the first part of the study, authors investigated more than 50 official sources of information, including laws, concepts, programs, events and reviews of major international organizations. The study's methodological basis included Kazakhstan's legislative and regulatory Acts, state programs and Concept for transition to Green economy, and data about innovations in the field of green technologies. Six experts were interviewed in order to determine factors which interfere to commercialization of green technologies. Urgent problems and trends of development, challenges and obstacles to gain green economy have also been identified in the result of expert interviewing. The research shows that despite Kazakhstan's intentions to update and develop much of its infrastructure over the coming 20 years, inefficient use of resources is currently observed in every sector. It is necessary to encourage scientists and entrepreneurs to invent and commercialize new green technologies. That would be basis for successful implementation of transition from "brown" to green economy.

건물의 생애주기 동안 사용되는 자원과 에너지를 절약하기 위한 친환경 기술들의 개발이 점차 확대되고 있다. 이러한 수많은 친환경 기술을 건축물에 무분별하게 적용하는 것은 많은 비용과 시간을 필요로 한다. 따라서 친환경 기술을 선택적으로 건축물에 적용하기 위한 위선순위 선정이 필요하다. 이러한 친환경 기술의 우선순위 선정을 위해선 친환경 기술의 경제적 가치를 정확히 파악하는 것이 중요하지만 현재는 친환경 기술의 정확한 경제적 가치를 분석하지 못하고 있다. 친환경 기술은 건물의 생애주기 동안 $CO_2$ 배출량을 감소시키고 투입되는 비용을 감소시키는데 목적이 있으며, 따라서 이러한 친환경 기술의 가치 평가 시 경제적 요소뿐만이 아닌 환경적 요소도 함께 고려되어야 한다. 본 연구는 친환경 기술의 경제적 가치를 종합적으로 판단할 수 있는 LCC-LCA 통합 경제성 분석방법을 활용하여 친환경 기술의 가치평가를 실시하고, 이를 사례에 적용하여 그 타당성을 검증하고자 하였다. Case study 결과, 친환경 기술은 경제적 요소와 환경적 요소가 함께 고려되어야 더욱 가치가 높아졌다. 그리고 우선순위 분석에서는 친환경 지능형 컴포넌트 기술이 가장 높은 순위로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 발주자가 프로젝트 기획 시 건축물에 적용할 친환경 기술의 선정을 위한 의사결정에 도움을 줄 수 있으며, 향후 개발되는 다른 친환경 기술의 우선순위 도출을 위한 선행연구로 활용될 것이다. 또한 친환경 기술의 평가항목은 본 연구의 평가항목 이외에 추가적인 항목들이 존재할 수 있으므로, 향후 이러한 평가항목들을 선정하여 경제성 평가 시 활용한다면 보다 정확한 평가를 수행할 수 있을 것이다.

The difficulty of securing freshwater sources is increasing with global climate change. On the other hand, seawater is less affected by climate change and regarded as a stable water source. For utilizing seawater as freshwater, seawater desalination technologies should be employed to reduce the concentration of salts. However, current desalination technologies might accelerate climate change and create problems for the ecosystem. The desalination technologies consume higher energy than conventional water treatment technologies, increase carbon footprint with high electricity use, and discharge high salinity of concentrate to the ocean. Thus, it is critical to developing green desalination technologies for sustainable desalination in the era of climate change. The energy consumption of desalination can be lowered by minimizing pump irreversibility, reducing feed salinity, and harvesting osmotic energy. Also, the carbon footprint can be reduced by employing renewable energy sources to the desalination system. Furthermore, the volume of concentrate discharge can be minimized by recovering valuable minerals from high-salinity concentrate. The future green seawater desalination can be achieved by the advancement of desalination technologies, the employment of renewable energy, and the utilization of concentrate.

The recent decades have seen a growing rate of international cooperation in science, technology, and innovation (STI) including in the field of green technologies. However, current approaches to national systems of innovation (NSI) have not kept up with this development. International aspects are rather treated as external conditions within which policymakers operate and respond but not influence. This paper tackles this problem by applying a refined NSI concept that includes an international dimension and complements past frameworks by focusing on those Korean government policies, actors, and activities relevant for the internationalization of STI. Austria and Korea have both formulated differing strategies to acquire international leading positions in the field of innovation and the development of green technologies. In the first step, the paper assesses Korea's international activities within the field of green technologies that transcend national boundaries and establish international connections. The government has still a strong influence on selecting technology areas for strategic funding but our findings show that international STI actors have difficulties in identifying the appropriate point of contact to initiate cooperation or apply for related funding. Second, an external perspective on Korea's international collaborations in the field of green technologies is offered. Austria has tentatively identified the East Asian country as a second-priority cooperation partner for its future STI internationalization activities. Interviews with Austrian stakeholders in the field of green technologies indicate a high interest in cooperation with Korea that is facilitated by a similar business culture based on personal networks. Moreover, researchers and policymakers referred to a shared need of small countries for intelligent decision-making processes regarding potential cooperation partners abroad. However, in order to enhance awareness, visibility and demand for Korean STI cooperation in European countries, more long-term funding programs featuring a more permanent point of contact should be introduced.
