The systems associated with the ESS never stop. It runs 24 hours everyday. The system must be managed to run. The ESS system should perform normally even if the power IT equipment fails or communication failure occurs. Therefore, there is a need for a system that actively addresses, manages and controls the high precision power data of the ESS, even if a variety of failures occur. I would like to propose a power management communication unit to cope with the occurrence of communication failure. This paper also includes an integrated management system that can perform micro grid site management, maintenance and monitoring for the ESS system connected with the solar power generation facility.

Energy harvesting through a thermoelectric module normally makes use of the temperature gradient in the system's operational environment. Therefore, it is difficult to obtain the desired output power when the system is subjected to an environment in which a low temperature gradient is generated across the module, because the power generation efficiency of the thermoelectric device is not optimized. The utilization of solar energy, which is a form of renewable energy abundant in nature, has mostly been limited to photovoltaic solar cells and solar thermal energy generation. However, photovoltaic power generation is capable of utilizing only a narrow wavelength band from the sunlight and, thus, the power generation efficiency might be lowered by light scattering. In the case of solar thermal energy generation, the system usually requires large-scale facilities. In this study, a simple and small size thermoelectric power generation system with a solar concentrator was designed to create a large temperature gradient for enhanced performance. A solar tracking system was used to concentrate the solar thermal energy during the experiments and a liquid circulating chiller was installed to maintain a large temperature gradient in order to avoid heat transfer to the bottom of the thermoelectric module. Then, the setup was tested through a series of experiments and the performance of the system was analyzed for the purpose of evaluating its feasibility and validity.

A solar heat and power hybrid system can simultaneously generate electricity and thermal energy. In this study, several experiments were carried out with a solar heat and power hybrid unit. Then, a method to increase the photovoltaic efficiency and amount of thermal energy was suggested based on a comparative analysis. The experiment was conducted using only the photovoltaic system as a reference case, with the photovoltaic-thermal air system as a hybrid case. A numerical increase in the photovoltaic efficiency per $1^{\circ}C$ was suggested based on a comparative data analysis of these two cases. In this experiment, the surface temperature on the air hybrid system was $13.52^{\circ}C$ lower than that in the reference case, and the photovoltaic efficiency was increased by 5.09. The amount of thermal energy produced was 15.69 Wt per $1^{\circ}C$ difference between the ambient and outlet temperatures. In this paper, therefore, a photovoltaic efficiency increase of 0.34 per $1^{\circ}C$ is proposed for the air hybrid system based on the analysis of the experimental data.

Through case studies of photovoltaic complex and wind farm construction and management, the causes of environmental and social conflicts were analyzed. Policies and measures to minimize conflicts and complement the institution were identified by analyzing successful construction and management case studies from both domestic and abroad. The causes of problems were haphazard damages to the regional environment, direct damages from power production facilities, lack of regional benefits from power production businesses, and loose environmental restrictions and management. The countermeasures to mitigate the problems at hand are to improve and strengthen the guidelines for power production businesses, secure residents' acceptability, strengthen regulations for business explanation, increase stakeholder's participation, find alternative sites, and ensure the speedy implementation of on-shore wind farms. Through these countermeasures, specific goals included in the New Renewable Energy Master Plan, such as target goals for photovoltaic and wind energy, preservation and protection of environment, and improvement of residents' acceptability, can be achieved.

Recently, high-rise apartment is being briskly built but there are problems such as lack of ventilation, stack effect and much energy consumption. Therefore It is recommended to develop a Small Wind Power System Combined Ventilator as a solution to solve these problems. The purpose of this study is to provide basis for Small Wind Power System Combined Ventilator in super high-rise apartment. This study conducted CFD simulation (Star-CCM) according to the shape of structures, building height and distance of two structures to identify the effect of wind speed increase when the structure is installed. As a result, pyramidal type was best suited for increase of wind speed. The best place was the front of the roof to main wind direction, and the best building height was 200m rather than 300m. If two or more small wind turbines combined ventilator are installed closely, vertical position to main wind direction is recommended. Horizontal position must necessarily be avoided, but height difference between two blades more than 3m showed good performance.

In this paper, an economic feasibility study of wind-diesel hybrid power systems for an island in the Yellow Sea, where the maximum power generation is about 500kW, was performed. For the study, annual electric load variation and wind resource data of the island were collected and analyzed. HOMER program - a typical hybrid optimization model for electric renewables including wind resource, developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory - was used. Wind speed and diesel price were picked out as variables for the sensitivity analysis in order to find the economic accountability for the wind-diesel hybrid power system. As the result, even though it is not feasible economically under the present condition, if mean wind speed is over 3 m/sec. or diesel price goes up to 2.4 $ per liter, the wind-diesel hybrid power system for the island becomes a prospective candidate.

Wind energy is currently the fastest growing source of renewable energy used for electrical generation around the world. Generally, wind turbine systems are designed to be operated for twenty years long, Therefore, various faults in the wind turbine system inevitably occur during their long term period of operation. Especially, rotor shaft, gear-box and generator are installed inside of nacelle, furthermore, some cooling systems for normal operation of these devices are also required. If these cooing systems have failed in their operation, it is impossible for the entire system to be operated normally. In this work, IR(Infra Red) camera based fault detection system for the preventive detection of various cooling systems faults is proposed. To verify the applicability of the proposed system, physical implementation is embodied and various experiments are carried out.

석탄으로부터 합성석유를 생산하는 상용기술을 도입하여 건설하고 이와 더불어 원천기술 개발을 위한 국산화 기술 개발을 병행하여 향후 고유가 시대를 대비한 국가 에너지 안보 확립과 국내 기술 개발의 가속화를 추구해야 할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 타당성 조사는 3종류의 석탄(호주 Wyong탄, 인도네시아 NTC탄, 인도네시아 KBB탄)으로부터 가스화에 의하여 합성석유스를 생산하는 공정에 대한 타당성 조사(Feasibility Study, FS)를 Class 5(하한 -50~-20%, 상한 30~100%)의 정확도로 수행하는 것을 내용으로 하고 있다. 플랜트의 규모는 합성석유 기준으로 20,000배럴/일이다. 플랜트의 건설을 위해서 광양제철소 슬래그처리장 내 12만평 부지에 조성 중인 포스코 SNG 생산공장 부지의 일부를 사용하는 것을 기준으로 하였다. 일반적으로 석탄의 종류에 따라서 가스화기의 종류 및 성능이 결정된다. 본 타당성 조사 연구에서 선정된 3종류의 석탄의 조성, 발열량, 회분 함량 등의 특성을 고려하여 각각의 석탄에 적합한 현존하는 상용급 가스화기를 선정하였다. 해당 석탄이 가스화기 종류에 따라 적절한 전처리 과정(건조, 분쇄, 슬러리화)을 거친 후 가스화기에 공급되는 것을 가정하여 석탄의 원소분석 조성, 발열량, 회분함량, 회분조성, 회 용융점 등의 변수에 따라서 각각 해당 가스화기에서 가스화되었을 때의 생성되는 합성가스의 조건을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 얻었다. 가스화기 시뮬레이션 결과를 토대로 합성석유 및 합성천연가스 생산을 위한 공정의 물질수지식 및 에너지수지식이 계산되었으며 이로부터 각 공정에서 발생되는 부생성물과 폐기물에 대한 양이 결정되고 이를 처리하는 방안 등도 제시되었다. 실증시설은 20,000배럴/일 규모의 CTL 및 전기 병산 시설이 적합하다. 더 큰 규모 공장은 투자비가 너무 커서 유가 또는 석탄가 변동에 따라 사업의 수익성이 크게 변하여 위험도가 큰 단점이 있기 때문이다. CTL 공장에 전기 병산이 추천되는 이유는 산소생산공장(APU), 압축 등 석탄전환공장에는 자체적인 전기수요가 막대하여 따로 스팀터빈용 발전소를 운영하므로 이를 효율적으로 대체하고자 하기 때문이다. 즉, 석탄가스화에 의해 기름을 최대한 만들고 미반응가스는 가스터빈 및 스팀터빈의 복합발전에 의해 고효율로 전기를 생산하면 최소의 비용으로 최대한 전기를 생산하여 자체소비 전력을 충당하고 남는 전기는 판매하여 수익률을 높일 수 있다.
