This paper is intended to evaluate energy efficiency policy in demand side, to assess the residential sector's energy efficiency policy and to analyze the system of energy efficiency practices. We examined residential energy consumption over the period 1990~2006. The decomposition method in the analysis was a logarithmic mean Divisia index (LMDI) techniques to decompose changes in energy intensity. First of all, the energy use in residential sector was adjusted to correct weather-induced variations in energy consumption, because adjustments for normal weather patterns facilitated inter-temporal comparison of intensity. The analysis on the residential sector shows that the overall energy intensity of the residential sector declined at an average 1.0% per year, while the structure effect increased by 1.8% per year, and the activity effect increased by 0.7% per year. In other words, the decline of floor space, number of household, and appliance ownership per capita has an effect on increase in residential consumption. The improvement in energy efficiency had strong contribution on the decrease of energy consumption. We find that the general results of analysis on residential energy are similar to those of IEA. The energy efficiency policy in residential sector is assessed to obtain some results during 1990~2006. In residential sector, structural variables such population per household, diffusion of appliance and activity factor such as population contributed to the increase of energy consumption while energy intensity effect induced the decrease of energy consumption. These findings are consistent with international trend as well as our prior expectation.

IEEE 802.3az LPI mechanism allows an Ethernet link to reduce power consumption by entering a low-power sleeping mode and letting some components being powered off when there is no data to be transmitted through the link. However, if small amount of packets are being sent periodically, such a mechanism can not obtain energy efficiency due to a high overhead caused by excessive mode transitions. In this paper, we propose an enhanced LPI mechanism which can perform state transition adaptively based on the traffic characteristics on transport layer and network status. This simulation result shows that proposed mechanism improves energy efficiency than LPI mechanism with respect to energy consumption rate for various traffic loads.

This paper presents an improved Snake algorithm that contains additional energy term related to adjacent edges. The suggested algorithm represents the distance between an adjacent edge and the current cell as energy, and extracts object contours more effectively by including the energy tenn to the whole energy function. The adjacent edge-based snake algorithm not only make it possible to detect object boundaries which are concave, but also can detect the boundaries of complex objects without weight adjustment. Experimental results show that the proposed method extracts object boundaries more accurately than other existing methods without loss of speed.

본 논문에서는 신호의 마스킹 특성을 이용한 Inter-Band Smoothing 기법을 통한 음질 개선 연구를 하였다. 이것은 임계 대역 신호 처리 후 신호의 전체 신호 대 마스킹 비를 보상해 주는 방식으로, 각 대역의 여기(Excitation) 에너지로부터 근사화 시킨 전역 마스킹 임계치를 통한 보상 기법이다. 잡음 에너지 제어를 통한 음질 개선알고리즘을 이용한 실험 결과 보다 자연스러운 음질의 제공을 통해 MOS의 개선을 확인 할 수 있었다.

Energy use has been recognized worldwide as a main cause of global warming and it is at the center of climate change. In this study, problems and measures of zero-energy building construction are investigated and analyzed. Based on the results, evaluation criteria of the zero-energy building are suggested. Performance related factors(Q) representing the environmental grade were divided into three categories as outdoor, indoor environment and maintenance. Energy related factors(LR) representing the energy load were divided into an energy, materials & resources, water cycle management, land use and transportation. Detailed fifty three items are listed for the evaluation under the consideration of energy, water cycle management sections gave weight. Upon receiving the first in the environment friendly certification system, Seoul Central Post Office and Seoul Metropolitan Water Supply Center evaluated. The reason why this score difference is due to lack of use of new generation energy building construction is required expensive costs so need expansion of governmental support. This effort is successful zero energy building construction and copes with global warming and climate change.

This paper discovers the energy loss factors through the insulation diagnosis of houses or buildings, and proposes directions for energy efficiency improvement. The energy efficiency factor of a building consists of insulation diagnosis, thermal bridge diagnosis, window diagnosis, airtight diagnosis, and equipment diagnosis. Among the residents and facilities in the energy welfare blind spot, an energy efficiency diagnosis was conducted for one senior citizen building located in Naju-si, Jeollanam-do, and energy efficiency diagnosis was conducted after insulation was installed. Energy measurement, diagnosis and analysis were performed using the IoT-based integrated wired/wireless energy diagnosis platform, Energy Finder. As a result of comparison, an overall energy saving rate of 16.38% was achieved. Annual heating energy consumption per unit area decreased from 333.51kWh before construction to 277.35kWh after construction, and annual cooling energy consumption per unit area decreased from 5.51kWh before construction to 5.22kWh after construction. The annual primary energy consumption per unit area decreased from 464.52kWh before construction to 403.69kWh after construction, and the annual energy cost was reduced from 3,063,307.14 won before construction to 2,641,072.49 won after construction. The additional improvement work is needed on the standards affecting energy efficiency other than insulation.

수소경제는 이제 선택사항이 아니라 피할 수 없는 미래로 우리에게 다가오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 2040년을 수소경제 실현의 원년으로 삼고 2040년까지 최종에너지소비의 15%를 수소로 충당하는 공급목표를 설정하였다. 수소이용효율이 가장 높은 수송부문을 주요 대상으로 2040년까지 자동차의 50% 이상을 연료전지 자동차로 대체하고, 기타 가정상업 및 발전부문에서도 20-30%를 연료전지로 대체하는 계획을 세웠다. 이러한 수소경제가 계획대로 달성되는 경우, 우리나라는 2040년에 가서 에너지소비가 8%정도 줄고, 에너지믹스도 개선되어 화석에너지의 획기적 감소(석유의 경우 탄소경제 대비 23% 감소)와 신 재생에너지의 비약(탄소경제 대비 47% 증가)이 두드러진다. 이에 따라 온실가스의 대폭적 저감 (20%)과 에너지자급도의 대폭적 개선 (23%)이 기대된다. 수소경제의 달성을 위해서는 정부가 앞장서서 관련법의 제정과 전담기구의 신설 등 수소경제에 대비한 안정적 추진체제 및 관련 법제도의 정비를 서둘러야 할 것이다. 이와 함께 연료전지보급 및 수소공급 인프라 구축에 필요한 방대한 투자재원을 확보하기 위해서 민간부문의 투자를 촉진시키고 민간의 전문기술인력 양성과 더불어 연료전지 및 수소인프라 산업육성을 위한 규격 및 표준의 마련도 시급하다.
