우리나라는 2012년부터 신재생에너지 공급의무화제도(Renewable Portfolio Standards, RPS)의 도입을 확정하였다(지식경제부 고시 제2010-244호). RPS 제도는 기존의 발전사업자에게 총 발전량 중 일정량 이상을 신재생에너지 전력으로 공급토록 의무화하는 제도이다. RPS의 도입을 통해 일차적으로 신재생에너지의 보급 확대를 도모할 수 있으며, 부차적으로 신재생에너지 공급확대의 비용의 소비자 귀착을 기대할 수 있다. 본 연구는 RPS 제도로 인한 신재생에너지 보급확대의 비용이 소비자에게 전가된다는 가정 하에, 조건부가치평가법(Contingent valuation)을 적용하여 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 지불의사액(Willingness to pay)을 분석하였다. 본 연구의 주된 목적은 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 지불의사액을 분석하는 데 있어 지역별로 어떠한 차이가 나타나는지 알아보는 데 있다. 이에, 서울, 울산, 강원도, 전라남도의 4개 지역을 설문대상 지역으로 선정하였다. 서울은 신재생에너지를 포함한 에너지 관련 시설에 대한 경험이 거의 없는 비교군에 해당하며, 강원도와 전라남도는 신재생에너지의 이용이 활발한 지역을 대표하는 대조군에 해당된다. 울산은 신재생에너지 이용이 활발하지는 않으나 굴지의 산업단지가 입지한 지역으로, 대형 에너지 관련 시설에 대해 특수한 선호를 보일 것이라 추측되어 대조군으로 선정하였다. 본 연구에서는 이 4개 지역의 주민들을 대상으로 조건부가치평가법을 적용한 설문조사를 시행하여 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 지불의사액을 도출한 후, 이를 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구결과를 통해 신재생에너지에 관련된 경험이 선호에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 파악할 수 있으며, 도출된 신재생에너지 전력에 대한 지불의사액은 향후 RPS 정책 도입시 전기요금 산정 관련 논의의 참고자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Korea classified into a development country when UNFCCC was concluded in 1995. So Korea doesn't have a GHG reduction duty until 2012. As the UNFCCC is strengthened, recently there is a growing interest in renewable energy and energy usage efficiency improvement for reducing GHG emission. It is associated with CES and renewable energy. CES is a total energy (heat, cooling and power)supplier in aggregated demand zone like a hotel, building, hospital and redevelopment district using CHP and it improves energy usage efficiency. At present, renewable energy is needed for GHG reduction duty but renewable energy doesn't have economic feasibility. So renewable energy is needed various support system to popularize which is a FIT and RPS. Especially RPS is carrying out instead of FIT in many advanced country and it will be inroduced in Korea. RPS is a duty which electricity service provider must guarantee renewable energy as much as specific ratio of total capacity. Therefore this study conducts an economic feasibility estimation of CES considering renewable energy when RPS will introduced in the future.

At the moment, in Korea, over 90% of energy resources depend on imports, and nearly 60% of electric energy is produced using fossil fuel. Therefore, the government adopted the Climatic Change Convention and has implemented the RPS system since 2012 to actively cope with the dependence on imported energy, and to grow and expand the new renewable energy industry. This study examined the performance results of mandatory supply of solar photovoltaic energy and non-solar photovoltaic energy assigned to providers and the present state after implementation of the RPS system. As a result, the achievement rate in 2012 was 64.7%. Especially, solar photovoltaic energy showed a high achievement rate of 95.7%, whereas non-solar photovoltaic energy showed a low achievement rate of 63.3% due to several problems and was highly dependent on the government. In 2013, the burden of each provider has increased due to more mandatory supply and addition of unfulfilled supply of 2012, and the separate mandatory supply of solar photovoltaic energy established for protection of the solar photovoltaic market is restricting investment. Therefore, there is a need to assign mandatory supply in consideration of the available amount of each new renewable energy.

In line with the international community's movement to reduce greenhouse gas emission, Korea implemented FIT(Feed in Tariff) in 2002 as part of its renewable energy development project. Although the policy had shifted to full-scale RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standards) in 2012, policymakers are still seeking changes due to policy ineffectiveness. While previous studies explain sudden policy changes through external factors, recent research sheds light on internal factors in the process of policy transition. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that are responsible for rapidly changing policies in latecomer nations. In order to find this, we look at the case of transition from the FIT to the RPS in Korea's expansion of renewable energy policy. As a result of the research, it is confirmed that the Top-Down decision making system of Korea and the external regulatory change cause rapid policy transition. By looking at these variables, we propose useful implications for policymakers to minimize the policy failure in future policy design and evolution.

2012년 RPS 제도가 시행되게 되면 발전설비용량 기준 500MW이상의 발전 사업자는 전체 전력생산량 중 일정 부분을 신재생에너지로 생산, 공급해야 한다. 최근 지경부에서 고시한 제5차 전력수급기본계획에서도 이러한 점을 반영하여 2024년까지 전체 발전량의 8.9%를 신재생에너지원으로 대체하겠다고 발표하였다. 신재생에너지 기술 수준, 시장여건 등을 고려하였을 때 앞으로 가장 크게 보급량(penetration)이 증가할 것으로 보이는 신재생에너지원은 태양광과 풍력인데 이 두 에너지원은 간헐성(intermittency)으로 인한 비급전성이라는 특징을 가지고 있어 향후 그 비중이 증가하면 전력계통의 안정성에 미치는 영향에 대해 고려해야할 것으로 보인다. 본 연구에서는 태양광과 풍력의 간헐성을 고려했을 때 추가적으로 발생하는 비용을 고려했을 경우 각 에너지원의 용량비용은 어떻게 되는지 알아보고자 한다.

Since South Korea started to apply Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) in 2012, there have been huge investment for deploying renewable technologies. Recently, the government determined to incentivize battery energy storage system(BESS) with renewable generations in order to induce the improvement of dispatching capability. In this paper, the annual pattern of PV generation based on actual generation data in South Korea is analyzed and the duration curve of capacity factor is proposed in order to provide the simplified analyzing methodology of present support policy for additional BESS installation for decision maker who is responsible for supply and demand planning. With suggested methodology, the range of appropriate BESS size with respect to the variation of system marginal price(SMP) and renewable energy certificate(REC) price can be derived briefly, and decision makers easily evaluate the effect of support scheme. Current policy for BESS installation support present additional BESS-related installation policy may give incentives to developers partially, however, the dependence between BESS size and benefit components (SMP and REC) can limit the deployment of the various portfolios of the BESS. Therefore, when improving the current policy in future, addressing the dependence between the technical aspects of battery size and the benefit components separately by the technical and economical parts is needed to set the suitable compensation rules for the renewable generation and BESS.

For the dissemination of new and renewable energy, Korean government introduced a renewable portfolio standard (RPS) scheme in 2012 after terminating feed-in tariff (FIT) scheme that was introduced in 2004. With the RPS scheme, 64.7% of its own goal (95.7% in PV and 63.3% in non-PV) was achieved in 2012 and 67.2% of that (94.9% in PV, 65% in non-PV) was achieved in 2013. The deployment of PV systems met the goal very well and that of non-PV did not. Recently, Korean government revised the target year of supplying 10% electricity from new and renewable energy from 2022 to 2024 and released a couple of measures on PV area. Recent studies showed that the bankability of a project plays a key role for PV dissemination. Therefore, the dissemination should be assessed from the point of bankability under the RPS scheme and a little adjustment is necessary to achieve the goal. Especially, installing a small size PV (<100 kwp) system needs a minimum REC price or a FIT scheme. In non-PV area, permission process is a common bottleneck and the related regulation should be eased. In addition, to achieve the long term goal, an implementing scenario has to be prepared. Currently, the portion of the waste-gas energy originated from fossil fuel is too large among the new and renewable energy sources and the portion should be lowered or eliminated in the 10% of electricity supply goal. Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) has its own FIT scheme for PV dissemination from 2014 SMG and revised the PV tariff from 50 to 100 won/kwh in effective of 2015. It is worth to spread the other provinces.
