Abstract

A multi-regression model was developed to estimate the decommissioning cost for Kori unit 1 using foreign nuclear power plant (NPP) decommissioning cost data. First, the decommissioning cost data were collected for 13 boiling water reactors and 16 pressurized water reactors and converted into the values as of November 2019. Then, for the regression model, the decommissioning cost was chosen as the dependent variable, and two variables were selected as independent variables: a contamination factor that was designed to reflect the operational characteristics of the decommissioned NPP and the decommissioning period. A statistical package in the R language was used to derive the regression model. Finally, the regression model was applied to estimate the decommissioning cost for Kori unit 1. The estimated decommissioning cost for Kori unit 1 was 663.40~928.32 million US dollars (782,812~1,095,418 million Korean won).

본 논문에서는 고리 1호기 해체 비용 추정을 위해 외국 원자력발전소 해체 비용 데이터를 현가화한 후 원자력발전소 해체 비용 추정 회귀 분석모델을 개발하였다. 이 모델 개발에 사용된 데이터는 해체 또는 진행 중인 BWR 13기, PWR 16기의 해체 비용 데이터이다. 회귀 분석모델 도출을 위해, 해체 비용을 종속변수로 정하고, 해체 원전의 운전 특성을 반영할 수 있게 고안된 Contamination factor와 해체 기간을 독립변수로 선정하였다. 빅데이터 분석 도구인 R language의 통계패키지를 이용하여 회귀 분석모델을 도출하였다. 이 회귀 분석 모델을 적용하여 고리 1호기 해체 비용을 예측한 결과, 미화 663.40~928.32백만 달러, 한화 약 7,828.12억~1조 954.18억 원이 소요될 것으로 예측되었다.
