Abstract

This paper shows the positivistic approach for analyzing the effect of ICT on the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. The real-time navigation was selected for the ICT based service in this research, and the CO2 reduction ratios of the optimized routes in the navigation were compared with the reduction ratios of the shortest routes in existing navigations. The results of experiments showed the driving based on the optimized routes has more reduction effects than the driving on the basis of the shortest routes. Also, new evaluation method for GHG emission was suggested by the quantification and monitoring approaches on the basis of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) in this paper. The results of this paper can be used as a preliminary research for the effect of ICT on the reduction of GHG emission. The evaluation method which suggested in this paper will be suggested to CDM as the new standard for the reduction of GHG emission in the transportation field as well.

본 논문은 정보통신기술을 기반으로 한 특정 서비스가 온실가스 감축에 미치는 영향력에 대하여 실험을 통하여 실증적으로 보여준다. 본 연구에서는 정보통신기술 기반 서비스로 실시간내비게이션을 선정하여 최적경로의 이산화탄소 감소율을 기존 내비게이션에서 제공하는 최단경로에서의 이산화탄소 감소율과 비교 실험하였다. 실험 결과는 실시간내비게이션의 최적경로로 이동할 경우 최단거리에 비해 이산화탄소 배출량 감소의 효과가 있다는 것을 보여준다. 또한, 본 연구는 청정개발체제에서 제시하는 온실가스 감축 방법을 기반으로 정량화 및 모니터링 접근을 통한 새로운 온실가스 감축 평가 방법을 이론적으로 제시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다양한 정보통신기술 기반 서비스들의 온실가스 감축 영향력에 대한 연구의 기반연구로써 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 본 논문에서 제시한 온실가스 감축 평가 방법론은 청정개발체제에 제안되어 새로운 표준으로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
