An Analysis on the Supporting Projects of Renewable Energy for Rural Area

농촌지역 재생에너지 지원 사업 실태 분석

Recently, interest in renewable energy is rising in rural areas in order to reduce heating and air-conditioning costs which are directly connected to farmhouse income. Thus, in this paper, I study renewable energy supporting projects in rural area: I analyze distribution of the Agriculture & Fishery Energy use Efficiency Project and 1 Million the Green Homes program by using project performance data and the data of Korea Energy Handbook. The results of my analysis of the two programs show that, while annual average increase of the 1 million Green homes prgram is 15.6%, the distribution rate of heating and air-conditioning facilities using geothermal heating and cooling system of the project has decreased by average 37% every year.
