최근 보급률이 급격하게 증가하고 있는 소형열병합발전(CHP)의 도입에 대한 전력회사(Utility)의 영향을 분석하기 위해서는 편익과 손실을 함께 고려해야 하는데 CHP의 도입에 대한 편익을 분석하기 위하여 사용되는 회피비용은 크게 에너지회피비용, 설비건설 회피비용, 손실회피비용 그리고 환경회피비용으로 구분된다. 그리고 기존의 전력회사 Utility의 측면에서 CHP 도입으로 인한 전력판매 수입의 감소나 시장점유율 축소도 함께 분석을 해야 한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 CHP보급으로 인한 편익 중 에너지회피비용(Energy Avoided Cost)을 산정하기 위한 효율적인 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

In recent years, electric industries in many countries confront with a structural change in business and socio-economic environments. Since 1984, PUC and utilities in U.S.A. have adopted or developing competitive bidding systems, and this new procurement programs prevailing and restructuring the power markets. In Korea, government and the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) invited the private sector to build and operate two 500 MW coal plants and two 400 MW LNG plants during 2001 - 2004. The plan also specifies basic concepts and conditions for the IPP projects such that new IPPs are selected through competitive bidding system with the purchased power price based on the avoided cost. In this study, the direction, guideline and scoring methods to Korean IPP bidding system are presented. Also, as a benchmark price and rates for purchased power, the avoided cost calculation models are developed, this study may contribute for the development of private power in Korea, and improve overall economic efficiencies of whole electric power sector.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: By the year 2050, thirty-eight percent of the Korean population will be over the age of 65. Health care costs for Koreans over age 65 reached 15.4 trillion Korean won in 2011, accounting for a third of the total health care costs for the population. Chronic degenerative diseases, including coronary heart disease (CHD), drive long-term health care costs at an alarming annual rate. In the elderly population, loss of independence is one of the main reasons for this increase in health care costs. Korean heath policies place a high priority on the prevention of CHD because it is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This evidence-based study aims to the estimate potential health care cost savings resulting from the daily intake of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation. Potential cost savings associated with a reduced risk of CHD and the medical costs potentially avoided through risk reduction, including hospitalizations and physician services, were estimated using a Congressional Budget Office cost accounting methodology. RESULTS: The estimate of the seven-year (2005-2011) net savings in medical costs resulting from a reduction in the incidence of CHD among the elderly population through the daily use of omega-3 fatty acids was approximately 210 billion Korean won. Approximately 92,997 hospitalizations due to CHD could be avoided over the seven years. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that omega-3 supplementation in older individuals may yield substantial cost-savings by reducing the risk of CHD. It should be noted that additional health and cost benefits need to be revisited and re-evaluated as more is known about possible data sources or as new data become available.

This paper presents a software for cost-effectiveness evaluation of DSM programs (Dsm-Lite). The presented software can help the users to analyze the energy consumptions and peak reductions of DSM programs, evaluate the cost effectiveness for TRC and RIM, and identify the benefits and the costs for each Test. The Dsm-Lite software can also provide the effective information on avoided costs, electric rates, and rebates by year etc.

본 논문은 효율향상 프로그램의 비용효과 분석을 위한 대리발전기법과 수요감소기법이 조합된 발전운전 회피비용 계산 방법론을 제안하였다. 수용가 전력사용 행태에 따른 효율향상 수요관리 자원의 가동지수를 도입하여 보급된 고효율기기의 시간별 운전용량을 계산하는 데 활용하였다 또한, 기준수요에서 최대수요시간의 운전용량을 그 시간에 기여하는 최대수요 절감량으로 계산하였으며, 발전운전 회피비용을 이용한 효율향상 수요관리 자원의 영향을 평가하였다. 수요관리 전후의 효과분석을 위한 사례연구 모델로 IEEE-RTS를 활용하였으며, 수요관리 효과로 인한 각 발전기의 발전량, 발전비용 및 계통한계비용(SMP)의 변화 등을 분석하였다. 본 방법은 단기 수요관리 효과를 예측함은 물론 현재 실시하고 있는 효율향상 수요관리 자원의 효과를 추정하는데 활용 가능하고, 계산결과는 수요관리자원의 효과분석을 위한 기초자료로 활용 가능하다.

This paper presents an approach to B/C analysis amenable to evaluate the impact of DSM programs especially on the strategic conservation programs and the load management programs. The proposed approach embedding the existing B/C analyses is applicable to the new electricity market Case studies show the B/C ratio and the avoided cost due to the impact of DSM programs.

We consider a time-cost tradeoff problem with multiple milestones under a chain precedence graph. In the problem, some penalty occurs unless a milestone is completed before its appointed date. This can be avoided through compressing the processing time of the jobs with additional costs. We describe the compression cost as the convex or the concave function. The objective is to minimize the sum of the total penalty cost and the total compression cost. It has been known that the problems with the concave and the convex cost functions for the compression are NP-hard and polynomially solvable, respectively. Thus, we consider the special cases such that the cost functions or maximal compression amounts of each job are identical. When the cost functions are convex, we show that the problem with the identical costs functions can be solved in strongly polynomial time. When the cost functions are concave, we show that the problem remains NP-hard even if the cost functions are identical, and develop the strongly polynomial approach for the case with the identical maximal compression amounts.

We consider a project time-cost tradeoff problem with two milestones, where one of the jobs has an uncertain processing time. Unless each milestone is completed on time, some penalty cost may be imposed. However, the penalty costs can be avoided by compressing the processing times of some jobs, which requires additional resources or costs. The objective is to minimize the expected total costs subject to the constraint on the expected project completion time. We show that the problem can be solved in polynomial time if the precedence graph of a project is a chain.

Stakeholders of a construction project expect cost savings through fast and accurate cost analysis by performing BIM-based quantity take-off (BQT). However, authors have observed that there can be discrepancies in the results of BQT depending on the level of development (LOD) and modeling methods. In addition, since quantity take-off methods are different depending on the construction work items, the combination of LOD, modeling methods of BIM, features of construction work items can cause serious overestimate or underestimate in BQT results. It is necessary to identify what kind of problems can happen and how those problems can be avoided in various construction work items, since the discrepancy of quantity take-off results has great impact on not only cost analysis but also the determination of contract amount and it can cause claims, poor construction quality, cost overruns, and many others later in the construction project. Therefore, this paper focuses the identification of issues and problems of BQT at each construction work item level based on two categorizations of structural works and interior works.
