Globally, in accordance with the goals set forth in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, each country has established and declared a reduction target for carbon neutrality by 2050. The roadmaps for establishing long-term greenhouse gas emissions development strategies and setting reduction targets have been announced. As the international community accelerates the transition to the net-zero society, 128 countries have declared net-zero by the end of 2020, and the net-zero declaration continues to expand around G20 member states. In December 2020, Korea announced the "2050 Net-zero Strategy" to establish a foundation for simultaneously achieving carbon reduction, economic growth, and improved quality of life for the people through active response to the net-zero, and pursuing policy tasks in stages to do this. Comprehensive carbon management is insufficient due to the lack of comprehensive carbon management due to the departure from the areas of mandatory reduction, such as the GHG energy target management system and the GHG emissions trading offset system implemented to reduce greenhouse gases in Korea. Currently, there is no cases for estimation or calculation of carbon dioxide emissions for the Mine Reclamation projects. It is reviewed the standard methods proposed by domestic and foreign carbon emission calculation methods and proposed appropriate carbon emission estimation methods for the Mine Reclamation projects in this study.

15 carbon footprint product (CFP) schemes, including Korea Carbon Footprint Label, UK Carbon Trust's Carbon Reduction Label and Japan CFP are implemented in the world. A CFP describes green house gases (GHGs) emissions emitted throughout product's life cycle and is intended to reduce GHGs emissions by labeling a CFP result on product. This study calculates Korea, UK and Japan CFP result of vacuum cleaner, detergent, packagin material in order to analyze the Korea, UK and Japan CFP standards. Our results demonstrate significant differences among then calculated results because of criteria, emission factors, etc. Therefore, there are many difficulties in providing various CFP results and the international standard and guidelines for product category are needed.

This study investigates a decomposition analysis of the determinants of the reduced $CO_2$ emissions in seven OECD countries that implemented carbon taxes from 1995 to 2013. Recent studies on decomposition analysis of changes in $CO_2$ emissions focused on technology-based physical factors; however, this study analyzes the effects of a carbon tax as an economic factor. According to the results obtained by using the Log Mean Divisia Index, the energy intensity effect and the carbon tax effect contributed the most towards the reduction of total $CO_2$ emissions in the seven OECD countries. The results for each country show that the emissions decreased due to the energy intensity effect, while the effects of carbon tax and carbon tax revenues differed by policy and environment of the countries.

A forest project for the sequestration of carbon dioxide helps to reduce the concerntration of greenhouse gas in atmosphere and provides various co-benefits. A lot of forestry-based carbon offset programs have been developing for the purpose of CSR(Corporate Social Responsibility), voluntary GHG emission reduction, and regulatory context etc. in worldwide. We studied major characteristics - project type and criteria, additionality, credits, permanence, carbon accounting and monitoring, co-benefit - of advanced forest carbon offset programs. Also, we tried to comprehend the direction and basic elements to design a domestic program.

신재생에너지를 내연기관의 연료로 사용했을 때 나타나는 온실가스 감소량 및 디젤연료를 사용했을 때의 효율 비교, 또한 온실가스를 감소했을 때 생기는 탄소배출권으로 얻을 수 있는 경제성을 연구해보고, 다른 분산전원방식인 태양력, 풍력, 연료전지 등을 사용했을 때의 온실가스 감소량 및 효율성을 비교해 본다. 그리하여 앞으로 다가올 탄소배출권 시장 경쟁에서의 가장 효과적인 방법을 모색해본다.

국제적으로 온실가스를 줄이기 위한 규제가 의무화 되고 있고, 국내에서도 저탄소 녹색성장이 중요한 이슈가 되고 있다. 유통물류 분야에서는 공급망을 구축함에 있어 탄소배출량을 관리하는 시스템이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 유통물류 산업에서 물품별 탄소배출량을 산정할 수 있도록 운송차량의 활동 데이터를 수집하는 방안을 고안하고 구현한다.

전력시장의 규제완화와 고효율, 신재생 에너지 관련 기술의 발전으로 분산전원의 가격경쟁력이 높아지면서 최근 배전계통 내에 분산전원의 보급이 급속히 확대되고 있다. 또한, 탄소배출에 대한 국제적 환경규제의 본격화는 분산전원 보급을 더욱 가속화 시키고 있다. 탄소배출량이 손실금액으로 환산될 경우 현재의 분산전원 운영방식과는 전혀 다른 시간별 분산전원의 발전전략이 재정립되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 배전계통 내 관할 구역의 수용가에 유 무효전력 및 열을 공급하는 구역전기사업자의 분산전원별 탄소배출량을 고려한 최적 운영에 대해서 소개할 것이다.

최근 주요 기업들을 대상으로 전력 사용을 100% 재생에너지로 전환하자는 RE100 캠페인이 국내외에서 뜨거운 관심을 받고 있다. 2019년 12월 기준으로는 Apple, BMW Group 등 전 세계 211개 기업이 RE100 캠페인에 참여한 것으로 알려져 있다. RE100이 확산됨에 따라 해외 RE100 기업이 국내 협력기업에게도 재생에너지 사용을 요청하는 사례가 발생하고 있는데, 국내는 RE100 도입을 위한 전력거래제도가 마련되지 않았고, 재생에너지 발전원가가 높아 당장의 RE100 이행은 어려운 상황이다. 이에 따라, 장차 RE100이 국내 기업에 무역장벽으로 작용할 가능성이 제기되고 있어 본고에서는 RE100의 현황과 RE100 도입 비용을 낮추는 방안으로써 RE100과 탄소배출권의 연계에 대해 논의하고자 한다. 이를 통해 탄소배출권과 연계한 RE100 이행이 가능해지는 경우, 국내 재생에너지 보급 확대 및 국가 탄소배출 감축 계획 이행에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

Following the signing of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change (UNFCCC, 2015), the world is expanding greenhouse gas reduction activities through comprehensive participation that includes not only developed countries but also developing countries. Major countries around the world are placing high expectations on the effectiveness of total carbon emissions regulation through the carbon emissions market. However, in order to obtain carbon credits, third-party verification is required based on quantitative carbon reduction data. Accordingly, in this paper, we developed an AIoT high-efficiency street light for carbon emissions and conducted a performance analysis study to measure the luminous efficiency of the lighting fixture. To obtain carbon emissions rights, we used high-efficiency LED PKG, developed our own high-voltage PFC, and developed high-efficiency lighting fixtures capable of communication. For communication, the 2.4GHz LoRa method was adopted between the lighting fixture and the gateway. Lens design was conducted through simulation of Korea Expressway Corporation's standard streetlight types A, B, and C. The performance of the streetlight was verified as being more efficient than other existing products through the measurement of luminous efficiency by an accredited rating agency, and it is expected that carbon emissions rights will be obtained by reducing electrical energy through this.
