Abstract

RPS (Renewable Portfolio Standards) is a policy tool to disseminate renewable energies through market mechanism. RPS promotes renewable power generation by obligating electricity market participants to deliver the required amount of electricity from renewable energies. To promote and encourage renewable energies, Korean government is considering to introduce RPS to domestic market in the near future. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the definition and market mechanism of RPS and to review key considerations in its design. In conclusion, we recommend some prerequisite in its introduction to Korea.

RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standards)란 전력의 일정 양 또는 비율을 신$\cdot$재생에너지에 의하여 충당하도록 의무화하는 제도로써 정부지원에 의존한 신$\cdot$재생에너지 보급을 시장기능에 의하여 활성화하려는 새로운 정책도구이다. 본 논문은 이와 같은 RPS제도의 국내 도입에 대비하여 RPS의 기본 개념과 시장기구 하의 운용방식, 정책설계 시 고려사항 등을 살펴보았다. 이를 통하여 신$\cdot$재생에너지 전망 및 계획상의 문제점과 RPS도입에 따른 전력시장에서의 효과 등을 확인하고, 최종적으로는 향후 RPS도입을 위한 정책제언을 도출한다.
