Abstract

As smart grid techniques developed, public attention is concentrating on energy efficiency. So it is necessary to study on new renewable energy in order to manage the energy within micro grid consisting smart grid. Among them, small hydro energy has the advantage of being installable anywhere depending the amount of water used by the users within micro grid. This study examines if the measured value is appropriate for small hydro power generation by measuring generation quantity and operation rate of generator based on the sewage flow used by apartments and multi-unit dwellings where those users live. Some appropriate apartments and multi-unit dwellings generate electricity with small hydro generator using sewage as potential energy. This study intends to suggest more effective management by introducing energy management system and electricity storage device of micro grid.

점차 스마트그리드 기술이 발전됨에 따라서 에너지의 효율성에 이목이 집중되고 있다. 그래서 스마트그리드를 구성하고 있는 마이크로그리드 내의 에너지를 독립적으로 관리하기 위해서는 신재생에너지에 대한 연구를 필요로 한다. 그중에서도 소수력 에너지는 마이크로그리드내의 사용자가 사용하는 물의 양에 따라서 그 어디에도 설치 할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 사용자들이 주거하는 아파트, 공동주택에서 사용하고 있는 하수량을 기반으로 전기 발전량과 발전기의 가동률을 측정하여 측정값이 소수력 발전에 적합한지 알아본다. 적합한 아파트, 공동주택에서는 위치에너지를 활용하여 발생한 하수를 소수력 발전기로 전기를 생산 한다. 마이크로그리드의 에너지 관리 시스템과 전기 저장 장치를 도입하여 보다 효율적인 관리를 제안하고자 한다.
