국제적으로 해운분야 등 온실가스 배출량 규제를 강화하고 있으며, 정부에서도 '저탄소 녹색성장'을 위한 신재생 에너지 비율을 확대 추진함에 따라 육상 녹색성장을 위한 시도는 활발히 이루어지고 있으나, 친환경 에너지를 선박에 이용한 노력은 부족한 실정이다. 또한 현재까지 연구된 태양광 시스템의 경우 기존 선박의 동력을 대체하여 추진용으로 사용하기에는 실용성이 없으므로, 기존 선박 발전시스템을 연계한 태양광 하이브리드 발전시스템의 연구개발이 필요하며, 따라서 태양광을 선박용 에너지로 활용하기 위한 선박용 하이브리드 발전 시스템 개념 설계 및 설치 기준에 대하여 고찰하고자 한다.

전 세계적으로 온실가스 배출 규제가 강화되고 있고 에너지 절감 및 환경오염 문제가 없는 재생에너지에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 육상 전력을 공급받기 어려움 해양 구조물의 경우에는 배터리와 같은 에너지 저장장치 또는 재생에너지를 활용하여 독립 전원 시스템을 구성하게 된다. 해양에서 활용이 가능한 재생에너지로는 태양광, 풍력, 파력, 조력등이 있으며 이러한 자연 에너지를 활용하는 재생에너지 발전 시스템의 경우 환경의 영향을 많이 받게 되므로 안정적인 전력 생산에 어려움이 있다. 예를 들어 태양광 발전 시스템의 경우 일조량에 따라 발전량이 결정되고, 풍력 발전 시스템의 경우 풍속 및 풍향이 발전량에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 독립전원시스템에서 태양광-풍력-파력의 멀티소스를 갖는 하이브리드 발전 시스템을 구성하여 기상상태에 따른 발전량을 보완가능하게 구성하면 보다 안정적으로 전력을 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 항만 및 협수로를 항해하는 선박 안전을 위해 설치된 등부표에 적용하는 해상하이브리드발전시스템을 설계하고 실증을 통해 하이브리드 발전시스템의 발전 특성을 확인한다.

Global aviation is projected to grow in demand by an annual average of 4.1% between 2014 and 2034. It can be said that environmental impact from aviation will therefore be expected to increase on a similar scale. As regards civil aviation emissions, the sector contributes between 2~3% to International aviation GHG emissions. In the European Union(EU), aviation emissions account for about 3% of the EU's total green house gas emissions, of which a majority are said to come from international flights. In terms of traffic volume in 2013, Korea's international aviation industry 11th with regard to passengers and 3rd with regard to cargo, attaining the overall rank of 5th in the world. GHG emissions has been increasing steadily over the last 4 years, averaging 3.9 percent a year, due to the growth of low cost carriers and the increased demand for air transportations. As for aviation in Korea, there are a number of means intended to attain the Government's emission control objective in an efficient manner, such as AVA (Agreement of Voluntary Activity), TMS (Target Management System) and ETS (Emission Trading Scheme). In addition, the Government intends to better adapt to ICAO's Global MBM(Market-based Measures) that will come into performance on Year 2020. In the study, we focused on GHG mitigation measures that is fulfilling the AVA, TMS, ETS in the Government and suggest the effective measures to reduction the aviation GHG emissions.

As international environmental regulations for pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions discharged from ships are being reinforced, it is drawing attention to use LNG as ship fuel. This paper compares the explosion risk potential in the LNG fuel gas supply systems of two types used in marine LNG fuelled vessels. By selecting 8500 TEU class container ships as target, LNG storage tank was designed and pressure conditions were assumed for the use of each fuel supply type. The leak hole sizes were divided into three categories, and the leak frequencies for each category were estimated. The sizes of the representative leak holes and release rates were estimated. The release rate and the leak frequency showed an inverse relationship. The pump type fuel gas supply system showed high leak frequency, and the pressure type fuel gas supply system showed high release rate. Computational fluid dynamics simulation was applied to perform a comparative analysis of the explosion risk potential of each fuel supply system.

To relieve Green-house Gas Emission is the key issue in urban area. Urban transport policies have focused on the reduction of private car use. The most common of these is Travel Demand Management(e.g., congestion charge, environmental tax, etc.) that forces individuals to reduce their private car use. An alternative way is Mobility Management(MM) that induces individuals to voluntarily change their car use through communications. MM is founded on social psychology theory and focuses on individuals' decision making processes to change their perception and attitude on private car use. Although some researchers have reported the relevance of MM approach, still few researches have explicitly studied on individuals' decision making processes. Therefore, the aims of the paper are to analyze the decision making process of individuals and to provide the basis of introducing MM approach in Korea. Structural equation model(SEM) is applied for the analysis of individuals' decision making process. A empirical study shows that psychological factors such as perception/attitude on global environment or individual norms impact significantly to reduce private car use and accordingly the relevance of introducing MM approach instead of imposing regulations or expanding transport facilities.

The increasing demand of maritime transportation and port development especially due to increased international trade resulted in a strengthening of regulating the greenhouse gas emissions mainly from ships by International Maritime Organization (IMO). Responding to these international environmental regulation and enforcement, the United States and the European seaports have expanded their Green Port Policy, which can promote the public welfare by reducing pollution caused by ships and ports. Accordingly, in 2010, Korean government enacted "The Framework Act on Low Carbon, Green Growth" and had pushed for all Korean ports to establish and implement their own green port policies. Therefore, the objective of this study is to establish the Green Port Policy Plan for sustainable and environmental friendly operations and developments of Ulsan port, which plans to be the oil hub port of Northeast Asia. To this end, we studied the current status of the environmental policy issues in Ulsan Port and international-&-domestic case studies on establishment of green port policy. With these studies, Ulsan green policy alternatives were identified that through the experts advice, and then were prioritized by adopting AHP survey analysis. As the result of this study, it was notified that LED lights replacement and AMP establishment as the hardware policy and the port environmental management department as the software policy were equally important policy options for the implementation of sustainable Ulsan Green Port Policy to meet port's characteristics.

This study analyzes domestic and overseas companies' Scope 3 verification, level of management, source and industry characteristics based on the responses of domestic excellent companies and rated 90 points or more global excellent companies which are included in CDP Korea 200 and CDP Global 500. The result of analysis conveys that global excellent companies' Scope 3 management source achieved the average of 2.7 which is one more than domestic excellent companies', according to the Scope 3 guideline of World Resource Institute and World Business Council of Sustainable Development. For domestic companies are tend to focus on business travel, employee commuting, etc. but didn't manage capital goods, leased assets and investments. Global companies' Scope 3 source is similar to domestic companies but shows more actively managing on investment and use of sold products. It seems that domestic companies should actively develop Scope 3 source especially for the capital related items and respond to the future regulations on inter-enterprise management through the Scope 3.

Carbon dioxide was designated as one of greenhouse gases that cause global warming. Among various ways to solve the $CO_2$ emission issue, the 3rd-generation biomass (algae) production is considered as a viable method to reduce $CO_2$ in the atmosphere. In this research, we propose a design of an innovative sustainable production system by utilizing the 3rd generation biomass in the environment of floating production storage and offloading (FPSO). Existing biomass production systems depend on the solar energy and they cannot continue producing biomass at night. Electricity produced from offshore wind farms also need an efficient way to store the energy through energy storage system (ESS) or deliver it real-time through power grid, both requiring heavy investment of capital. Thus, we design an offshore grid structure harnessing LED lights to supply the necessary light energy, by using the electricity produced from the wind farm, resulting in the maximized production of biomass and efficient use of wind farm energy. The final design integrates the biomass production system enhanced by LED lights with a wind power generation. The suggested NLP model for the optimal design, implemented in GAMS, would be useful for designing improved offshore biomass production systems combined with the wind farm.
