국내 에너지 생산량의 고갈과 더불어 태양열, 풍력 등이 지속적 가능한 신재생 대체 에너지로 떠오르는 것과 더불어 가정에서 직접 전력을 생산하는 전력생산시스템이 주목을 받고 있다. 이를 위한 정부의 정책으로 태양광 패널을 이용하여 전력을 생산하고 이를 이웃 간의 전력 거래를 할 수 있는 실증사업을 실시하였다. 본 논문에서는 이 실증 사업에서 보안성과 안정성을 높이고 빠른 거래가 가능한 블록체인 기반 P2P 전자거래 시스템을 설계하고, 이를 통해 신재생 에너지 거래 시스템 개발 기술의 기술 사업화 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 경제적 리스크를 최소화할 수 있는 기틀을 마련한다.

The purpose of this study is to develop a business model that efficiently converts diesel power generation systems to renewable energy microgrids (MG) in large-scale islands. Most of the previous studies on the conversion of renewable energy MG in islands had limitations dealing with efficiency from the perspective of suppliers. However, the microgrid has the characteristic of getting benefits through the interaction between the consumer and the supplier. In addition, the efficient MG business model from the perspective of new institutional economics is a structure in which consumers and suppliers jointly participate. Therefore, this study assumed that the MG business model in which the supplier's MG and the consumer's community solar participated would benefit all participants, and verified the assumptions using domestic island data. In terms of supplier investment, the cost of power supply (LCOE) of assumed model was calculated to be 14.0% lower than that of the diesel model and 3.7% lower than that of the supplier-only MG model. From the perspective of consumer investment, electricity bills are expected to be reduced by more than 200,000 won per household per year through self-generation of solar power. Social benefits are expected to reduce external environmental costs. The CO₂ emissions of the assumed model were calculated to be 39.5% lower than the diesel model and 1.5% lower than the supplier-only MG model. Therefore, the MG business model with consumer participation proposed in this study is expected to be an efficient alternative to renewable energy MG conversion in domestic islands, and is meaningful as an energy plan that improves the benefits of local residents.

Daily ahead forecast is necessary for the electricity balance between load and supply due to the variability renewable energy. Numerical weather prediction is usually employed to produce the solar irradiance as well as electric power forecast for more than 12 hours forecast horizon. UM-LDAPS model is the numerical weather prediction operated by Korea Meteorological Administration and it generates the 36 hours forecast of hourly total irradiance 4 times a day. This study attempts to evaluate the model performance against the in situ measurements at 37 ground stations from January to May, 2013. Relative mean bias error, mean absolute error and root mean square error of hourly total irradiance are averaged over all ground stations as being 8.2%, 21.2% and 29.6%, respectively. The behavior of mean bias error appears to be different; positively largest in Chupoongnyeong station but negatively largest in Daegu station. The distinct contrast might be attributed to the limitation of microphysics parameterization for thick and thin clouds in the model.

ESS(Energy Storage System) is an important source that keeps power supply stable and utilizes electricity efficiently. For example, ESS contributes to resolve power supply imbalance, stabilize new renewable energy output and regulate frequency. ESS is predicted to be expanded to 55.9GWh of installed capacity by 2023, which is 30 times more than that of 2014. To raise competitiveness of domestic ESS industry in this increasing world market, we have disseminated load-shift ESS for continuous power supply imbalance with FR ESS, and also necessity to secure domestic track record is required. However in case of FR ESS, utility of installing thermal power plant is generally generated within 5% range of rated capacity, so that scalability of domestic market is low without dramatic increase of thermal power plant. Necessity of load-shift ESS dissemination is also decreasing effected by surplus backup power securement policy, raising demand for new dissemination model. New dissemination model is promising for $CO_2$ reduction effect in spite of intermittent output. By stabilizing new renewable energy output in connection with new renewable energy, and regulating system input timing of new renewable energy generation rate, it is prospected model for 'post-2020' regime and energy industry. This research presents a policy alternatives of REC multiplier calculation method to induce investment after outlining PV-connected ESS charge/discharge mode to reduce GHG emission, This alternative is projected to utilize GHG emission reduction methodology for 'Post-2020' regime, big issue of new energy policy.

Since the cut-down of the purchasing price of the feed in tariff(FIT) in 2008, the numbers of photovoltaic projects get decreased, contrary to investment expansion policy of government on renewable energy. The root cause of the decrease is the irrationality of the current purchasing price structure of FIT as well as the adversity of fund raising due to the global financial crisis. This study proposes the FIT calculating model (Cost & Benefit Risk Based Purchase Price Process : CBRP3) reflecting the fluctuation of cost and benefit risks. The first step is to establish the photovoltaic generation alternatives, and to calculate each distribution data of the investment and the power generation quantity. The FIT for each alternative is, then, assessed through simulations. Finally the proposed FIT scheme is compared to the present FIT scheme and future study subjects are derived.

The value of tangible assets depreciates over their useful life and this depreciation should be adequately reflected in any tax or financial reports. However, the method used to calculate depreciation can impact the financial performance of solar projects due to the time value of money. Korean tax law stipulates only one method for calculating the depreciation of solar photovoltaic facilities: the straight-line method. Conversely, USA's tax law accepts other depreciation methods as solar incentives, including the modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS) and Bonus depreciation method. This paper compares different depreciation methods in the financial analysis of a 10 MW solar system to determine their effect on the financial results. When depreciation was calculated utilizing the MACRS and Bonus depreciation method, the internal rate of return (IRR) was 10.9% and 16.4% higher, respectively, than when the Korean straight-line depreciation method was used. Additionally, the increased IRR resulting from the use of the two US methods resulted in a 20.5% and 27.4% higher net present value, respectively. This shows that changing the depreciation calculation method can redistribute the tax amount during the project period, thereby increasing the discounted cash flow of the solar project. In addition to increasing profitability, USA's depreciation methods alleviate the uncertainty of solar projects and provide more flexibility in project financing than the Korean method. These results strongly suggest that Korean tax law could greatly benefit from adopting USA's depreciation methods as an effective incentive scheme.

본 연구에서는 풍력에너지 보급을 위한 신재생에너지정책의 포트폴리오의 구성이라는 최종 목적 하에 먼저 적용 가능 수단 및 주요 쟁점사항에 대하여 고찰해 보았다. 먼저 FIT(Feed in Tariff)와 RPS(Renewable Energy Portfolio) 등 대표적인 신재생에너지 보급 정책들과 선진국 사례들을 중심으로 적용 가능한 그 외의 정책에 대하여 검토해보았다. 또한 이러한 정책을 시행하였을 때 성공여부에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 국내 주요 정책 변수에 대하여 조사해 보고, 향후 예상되는 국내 산업환경변화를 고려하여 장기적 전략수립을 위한 기초 연구를 수행하고자 하였다. 특히 이 과정에서 신재생에너지산업정책에서 공통된 주요 이슈들과 블레이드의 대형화나 해상풍력발전 등 풍력산업에서 차별화되어 나타나는 이슈에 대하여 검토하고 이러한 이슈들을 정책 포트폴리오 구성에 충분히 반영할 수 있도록 함으로써 현실과 동떨어진 정책연구가 되지 않도록 노력하였다. 이러한 연구는 신재생에너지 강국으로 도약하기 위하여 태양광과 풍력산업을 중심으로 다양한 발전전략을 세우고 있는 우리나라에서 풍력발전산업의 활성화를 위한 장기전략 수립에 기여할 수 있는 정책적 함의를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
