온실가스의 배출자료는 기후변화협약 참여협상 및 저감대책 수립에 없어서는 안될 중요한 기초자료이다. 그러나 국내에서는 현재 에너지와 농업 분야를 제외하고는 온실가스의 배출원 및 배출량 조사가 미미한 실정이다. 이번 연구에서는 기후변화와 관련된 온실효과에 커다란 기여를 하고 있는 메탄($CH_4$)의 매립지 표면으로부터의 국내 배출량을 조사하고자 한다. $CO_2$, $CH_4$, $N_{2}O$, $O_3$, CFC 등의 주요 온실가스들은 여러 경로를 통해서 대기로 배출되고 있으며, 온실가스의 배출기여도를 보면 도시쓰레기의 매립이 전체 배출량에 약 3%정도 기여하는 것으로 보고되었다.

생산품에 대한 국제적 환경기준은 강화되고, 친환경소비를 실천하는 소비자의 요구도 커졌다. 온실가스 감축은 거를 수 없는 시대적 흐름이다. 우리나라를 비롯한 많은 국가들이 배출권거래제 도입에 적극적인 이유는 여러 가지 긍정적 효과에 기인한다. 배출권거래제는 기존 온실가스 목표관리제에 비해 국가 온실가스 감축비용이 44-68% 수준으로 절감된다고 한다. 또한 기업의 신재생에너지, 에너지 고효율 기술 등 저탄소 분야에 대한 투자와 기술개발을 유인하고, 저탄소 경제구조로의 전환과 경제성장에도 기여한다고 한다. 배출권거래제의 성공적 시행을 위한 중요한 과제는 정부의 면밀한 준비와 할당 대상업체 등 산업계의 적극적 협조다.

배출권거래제가 내년 1월부터 시행될 예정이다. 이에 기업들은 실제 온실가스 배출증가 추세와 신 증설 시설 투자계획 등을 고려한 현실적인 할당이 이루어지길 원하며 정부는 국가 감축목표 달성이 가능하도록 할당량을 결정하고자 한다. 온실가스 감축목표는 다양한 정책의 종합결과물로서 에너지정책, 산업발전정책, 온실가스 감촉기술발전 추이 등이 종합적으로 고려되어야 한다. 배출권거래제의 안정적 운영과 지속적인 경제성장을 담보하기 위해서라도 환경보전과 산업경쟁력을 동시에 고려하는 합리적 대안이 마련되기를 희망해 본다.

본 연구는 건설공사의 온실가스 배출영향요인을 건설공사의 생애주기(Life Cycle)별로 제시하였다. 이를 위해, 건설공사의 생애주기를 4단계로 구분하였으며, 각 단계의 온실가스 배출에 대한 자료조사와 선행연구 분석을 통해 영향요인을 도출하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 건설공사의 온실가스 배출량 산정을 위한 기초적인 자료로 활용이 기대된다.

In this study, greenhouse gas emissions occurring from the construction of Jangbogo Antarctic research station were estimated in terms of material production stages and building stages, respectively. In detail, greenhouse gas emissions during the building stages were estimated in terms of marine transportation, inland transportation, construction equipment utilization, and construction camp operation, respectively. As a result, greenhouse gas emissions from material production stages with life cycle assessment were 8,933 ton (as $CO_{2eq}$), equivalent to the 23.8% of total greenhouse gas emissions from the construction of Jangbogo Antarctic research station, and these results indicate that greenhouse gas emissions occurring from material production stages should not be ignored. During the building stages, greenhouse gas emissions occurring from first year were greater than those from second year due to the increase in fuel consumption of freighter during second year. Additionally, marine transportation compared to inland transportation, construction equipment utilization, and construction camp operation was found to be the greater contributor for greenhouse gas emissions during the building stages. The total greenhouse gas emissions estimated from both material production stages and building stages was 34,486 ton (as $CO_{2eq}$), and greater than those estimated from comprehensive environmental evaluation (CEE) of existing other research stations. This difference is mainly attributed from approximate estimation of greenhouse gas emissions of existing other research stations without considering material production stages.

This paper analyzes the economic and environmental impacts of domestic policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by focusing on carbon tax, domestic emissions trading and the mixture of these policies. By utilizing a dynamic CGE model, KORTEM, this study shows that the economic cost under carbon tax is projected to be higher than that under emission trading. It is because under carbon tax scheme each emitter in economy must meet its emission target regardless of the abatement cost. On the other hand, emission trading allows emitters to reduce the marginal cost of abatement through trading of emission permits. In designing policy portfolio to address the climate change problem in Korea, therefore, this paper proposes the introduction of domestic emission trading scheme as the main domestic policy Instrument.

Purpose: Greenhouse gases are one of the major causes of global warming, a global disaster. This study aims to calculate road sector greenhouse gas emissions more precisely than conventional methods. Method: Currently, the average speed of a vehicle is used to calculate greenhouse gas emissions. In this study, GHG emissions are calculated using the speed of individual vehicles and compared with current methods. Result: It was confirmed that the existing emission estimation method underestimated about 15% in the case of carbon dioxide, about 1% in the case of nitrous oxide, and about 1% in the case of methane. Conclusion: Current methods of estimating greenhouse gas emissions were developed before 2000 and were developed to meet the limits of available data. However, with the advancement of technology, the quality of available data is now high, and new emissions estimation methods are needed. Therefore, in this study, we propose a method for estimating the velocity-based greenhouse gas emissions of individual vehicles as a more accurate method for calculating greenhouse gas emissions.

In 2006, the share of energy in Korea amounted to 28% from the total import, 97% from overseas dependency, and 83% for the national Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission in 2004. Thus, from the aspects of economical and environmental policies, an energy analysis is very important, for the industry to cope with the imminent pressure for climate change. However, the estimation of GHG gas emissions due to an energy use is still done in a primitive way, whereby each industry's usage is multiplied by coefficients recommended from international organizations in Korea. At this level, it is impossible to formulate the prevailing logic and policies in face of a new paradigm that seeks to force participation of developing countries through so called post-Kyoto Protocol. In this study, a hybrid energy input-output (E-IO) analysis is conducted on the basis of the input-output(IO) table of 2000 issued by the Bank of Korea in 2003. Furthermore, according to economic sectors, emission of the GHG relative to an energy use is characterized. The analysis is accomplished from four points of view as follows: 1) estimating the GHG emission intensity by 96 sectors, 2) measuring the contribution ratio to GHG emissions by 14 energy sources, 3) calculating the emission factor of 3 GHG compounds, and 4) estimating the total amount of national GHG emission. The total amount estimated in this study is compared with a national official statistical number. The approach could be an appropriate model for the recently spreading concept of a Life Cycle Analysis as it analyzes not only a direct GHG emission from a direct energy use but also an associated emission from an indirect use. We expect this model can provide a form for the basis of a future GHG reduction policy making.

기업들은 온실가스 배출권거래제를 대비하여 철저한 준비가 필요하다. 에너지 온실가스 경영을 적극 도입하여야 하며 사업장내의 감축이행에 소요되는 한계비용과 배출권 시장 가격 등을 고려한 다양한 감축 옵션을 검토하여 기업경쟁력 저하를 방지하고, 자사의 강점을 살려 기후변화 시대에 맞는 비즈니스모델 도출을 위한 준비에 힘써야 할 것이다.
