The recent technology of Wind Energy Conversion System(WECS) in the world is well-developed and the feasibility of WECS is better than the past time. So, it is necessary to re-analyze the characteristics of wind energy in this country. This paper deals with the analysis of wind energy distribution in Korean Peninsula, Cheju and Ullung island. The assessment was performed based on the raw data collected 64 meteorological stations for the last 10 years. The wind energy characteristics were analyzed hourly, monthly, seasonally and annually. The Weibull distribution was assumed and two parameters in all areas were calculated and the wind energy potential distribution in Korea was obtained.

The influence of substrate materials on the thermal stability of black chrome coating was investigated by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry(RBS). In order to study thermal degradation the sample were annealed in air for 24 hour at temperature of 450. Cu, Ni, and S.S(Stainless steel 304) were used as substrate for selective coating. The experimental results of substrate diffusion was discussed. It was found that little diffusion of substrate material occurred for the sample pre. pared on stainless steel.

This paper reports the application of the PSTAR(Primary and Secondary Terms Analysis and Henormalization) method to a thermally massive passive solar house located in Daejeon, Korea. The house has approximately $156m^2$ of living area with 3 bedrooms and a living room, which embodies many passive solar features for energy conservation. The primary concern of this work was to properly evaluate the thermal behavior of a thermally massive building structure using the PSTAR method. Results show close agreements between the measured and renormalized values in most cases in which the simulation results from the audit description of the house deviate somewhat considerably.

Photovoltaic solar energy policy in the keynote of the world in the development of new technologies in terms of renewable energy sources has been a great interest. Solar energy is the energy density, low light intensity, temperature, and a lot of areas affected by the difference, the effective use difficult. For the installation of photovoltaic solar power systems to develop farmland or forest land resulting from deforestation has become such a problem. In this paper, a way to resolve these issues as part of the development of the reservoir water through the efficient use of land and water resources through the eco-friendly energy production, water quality improvement, the cooling effect of solar modules, solar water system has the advantage of was installed. Terrestrial solar systems installed under the same conditions and solar radiation, power, module temperature, ambient temperature and analyzed. Through this award to demonstrate the effectiveness of the solar system is.

In the past few years, the subject of passive heating has been the major area of our concern due to the specific climate conditions prevailing in our region. More recently, however, other important issues such as retrofitting, passive cooling, optimized integration of conservation and passive solar, and daylighting have emerged as the areas of frequent discussions. KIER, the sole R&D organization in solar energy technologies, has accomplished significant results in passive building designs and actual demonstrations of experimental passive buildings. As a result of such endeavor by KIER, the passive solar buildings have been very well received by the Korean public. The current number of passive solar buildings in Korea is well over 1,600 (as of Dec. 1986). In this paper, broad aspects of the present status of passive solar technology utilization in Korea are presented.

Currently, new and renewable energy come into the spotlight, such as solar energy, wind power, fuel cell, hybrid car etc., due to the energy resources is being depleted. In order to solve like this problem, we addressed the roll to roll printing machine for the thin film solar cell by using printing technology. For the this research, we archived concept design and verified propriety.

In this work, we analyzed correlations between life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and life-cycle cost of energy resources. Energy resources studied in this paper include coal, natural gas, nuclear power, hydropower, geothermal energy, wind power, solar thermal energy, and solar photovoltaic energy, and all of them are used to generate electricity. We calculated the mean values, ranges of maximum minus minimum values, and ranges of 90% confidence interval of life-cycle GHG emissions and life-cycle cost of each energy resource. Based on the values, we plotted them in two dimensional graphs to analyze a relationship and characteristics between GHG emissions and cost. Besides, to analyze the technical maturity, the GHG emissions and the range of minimum and maximum values were compared to each other. For the electric generation, energy resources are largely inverse proportional to the GHG emission and the corresponding cost.

This paper studies development of a solar thermosyphon hot water system which is suitable to korean climate and life style, to save energy consumed for domestic water heating. The system consists of two flat plate collectors(or three flat plate collectors) connected in parallel and a storage tank of 300 liter capacity with heat exchanger and the optimum system was designed through the comparative measurements of five different storage tanks. The developed system manufactured with domestic materials were installed in residential buildings in seven cities(Seoul, Pusan, Taegu, Kwangju, Taejeon, Kangneung, Cheju) for demonstration and field test and results show possibility for commercialization.

Recently, the energy has been used much more than ever, but there has been many problems including atmospheric pollution. So we need alternative energy resources, which are solar heat, solar light, wind power, small water power, etc. The field, which is most popular these days, is the energy source by solar light which transform electric energy using the solar cell and it is available with many researches. In this paper, we manufactured the solar power generation system over 90W using solar module which was 9.90V for Voc, 0.93 A for Isc, 8.64 V for Vmp, 0.75 A for Imp, 6.5 W for power. System was controlled by step motor with worm gear to operate optimum condition between $0^{\circ}{\sim}70^{\circ}$ angle. This system was very effective in tracking space use because it need less space than general solar module.

Renewable energy resources such as wind, wave, solar, micro hydro, tidal and biomass etc. are becoming importance stage by stage because of considering effect of the environment. Solar energy is one of the most successful sources of renewable energy for the production of electrical energy following solar energy. And, the solar/photovoltaic cell generators depend on the solar radiation, which is a random variable so this poses difficulty in the system scheduling and energy dispatching, as the schedule of the photovoltaic cell generators availability is not known in advance. This paper proposes to use the two-layered artificial neural networks for predicting the actual solar radiation from the previous values of the same variable.
