So far several attempts have been made to digitalizing sea transport documents. Three notable examples are SeaDocs, Bolero, e-B/L Korea and Ess-Databridge. Ess-Databridge was established in 2003, with the aim of promoting the use of electronic alternative to shipping documents. The ESS-Databridge system was piloted from 2005 and went live in January 2010. The ESS-Databridge operates under a private legal outline, the Databridge Services and Users Agreement (DSUA). In the Ess-Databridge system, only the user who is in control of the original bill of lading will be able to indorse it on to another user. Once the indorsement is effected and unless the indorsee decide store turn the documents, the indorser loses control and retains access only to an electronic document marked 'copy' for its records. A feature that appears to have been crucial to the success of the CargoDocs service is that visually, e-B/Ls produced using ESS-Databridge appear identical to the paper documents. The ESS-Databridge may be even more successful if the legislators take certain steps that will increase uniformity and certainty in electronic transport documentation.

In order to manage the gradual increase of electricity demand, the United States, Japan, and Europe are seeking to achieve overall change of electric power system by introducing solutions such as smart grid. Among these solutions, there are various research projects regarding the Electricity Storage System (ESS), which aims to promote the efficient usage of electricity and grid system of new and renewable energy system. Korean government revised the law by including ESS in new and renewable energy facilities to accelerate ESS deployment. Following the same direction of the government policy, this study suggests methodologies of setting REC weighted value that guarantees investment financial feasibility when new and renewable power producers install ESS.

Purpose: In this study, we propose the ESS process model which, in order to improve reliability of electronic equipment, can be referenced in both development and production phases. Methods: ESS guidelines such as MIL handbooks or private sector ESS guidelines are used for devising the proposed ESS model. Especially, proposed model is customized by using those references in order to be optimized in the domestic development and production phases. Results: ESS-related-requirements which is specified in the Technical Data Package(TDP) for the area of guided missile systems are analyzed. Current status of the requirement and screening strength are analyzed for those systems to show what kind of weak points should be improved. Conclusion: A ESS guideline which is applicable to the domestic weapon acquisition environment is proposed. As such, the necessity and detail guidelines of the proposed model are explained.

KEPCO has installed Frequency Regulation ESS (FR ESS) of 376 MW since 2015. Frequency Regulation is ancillary service to support stabilizing system frequency, which is divided into governor free and automatic generation control. KEPCO operates FR ESS as governor free application and leads FR ESS market with capability of diverse demonstration and operation experiences. To expand FR ESS role during transient states of power system, KEPCO has extended operating time of charging and discharging. KEPCO has also changed speed droop lower than before to improve contribution on frequency compensation, and acquired much experiences of differentiating bad cells from others. Based on these technologies and know-hows, KEPCO Research Institutes received request of feasibility study and technical cooperation for overseas FR ESS business. This paper suggests the simple and practical method for making technological feasibility study of FR ESS.

최근 공공건물, 중대형 건물 등에서 전력 피크 시간대에 또는 안정적인 전력공급을 위해 사용할 에너지를 저장하는 방법으로 ESS 를 채택하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 ESS 의 상태를 모니터링하기 위해서는 별도의 PC 에 소프트웨어를 설치하거나, EMS(Energy Management System)와 같은 별도의 솔루션의 한 기능으로 확인할 수 있다. 이럴 경우, 소프트웨어가 설치되어 있지 않은 현장에서 확인이 어렵고, 자연방전이 일어난 경우 과방전의 가능성도 배제할 수 없다. 따라서 ESS 의 랙 내부에 LCD 화면을 탑재하여 ESS 독립적으로도 상태를 확인할 수 있도록 모니터링 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 연구의 ESS 모니터링 시스템은 ESS 의 안전성올 높이고, 보다 직관적으로 ESS 의 상태를 확인할 수 있도록 구현 하였다.

This study proposes a constant power tracking algorithm to compensate for the intermittent characteristics of Photovoltaic connected to a DC micro grid. A PV-ESS integrated module in which distributed ESS is additionally connected is utilized for the proposed algorithm. PV performs P&O MPPT control at all times. To supplement the intermittent characteristics of PV, the proposed constant power tracking algorithm maintains constant power by operating the distributed ESS of the PV-ESS integrated module in accordance with the output state of the PV. By performing PSIM simulation and an experiment, this study verifies the performance of the integrated module of PV-ESS for DC micro grids applying the constant power tracking algorithm.

This research tried to develop an ESS electricity trading system linked with blockchain for energy participation consumers. For the purpose of publishing renewable energy ESS power amount and demand information, we will build a smart contract system on the blockchain DB, utilize the blockchain DB data of energy prosumers and consumers, and expand the power trading market flexibly. to provide realistic solutions. Therefore, the main contents of the development of the ESS power trading system linked to the blockchain are cloud-based web construction for ESS management, coin issuance and exchange registration for activating the blockchain, and to reflect the blockchain technology, building a blockchain database for collecting and supplying ESS-based production demand data, selecting a blockchain-based platform and building a foundation, and creating a smart contract, etc.

Currently, the government is encouraging the introduction of energy storage system to reduce carbon emissions and peak power demand. The government is planning the cumulative capacity of ESS of 2GW in 2020. By utilizing charge and discharge of the ESS, it is possible to sell the surplus power to utility and electricity market. This paper suggests the model that economic feasibility of energy storage system for planning the construction of power generation facilities in 2035. Our results of simulation indicate the energy storage plan of utility for constructing renewable energy facilities is need to incentives from the government to encourage power utilities and expansion of ESS.

In this paper, we propose a probability method to determine minimum capacity of energy storage system(ESS) for Micro-grid Because of high capital cost of ESS, It's very important to determine optimal capacity of ESS and for stable operation of Micro grid(MG), we should determine minimum capacity of ESS. The proposed method has abilities to consider forced outage rate of generators and intermittent of non-dispatchable generators and minimum capacity make MG keep energy balancing by oneself.

At present, electric power industry around the world are being gradually changed to a new paradigm, such as electrical energy storage system, the wireless power transmission. Demand for ESS, the core technology of the new paradigm, has been growing worldwide. However, it is essential to estimate the optimal capacity of ESS facilities for frequency regulation because the benefit would be saturated in accordance with the investment moment and the increase of total invested capacity of ESS facilities. Hence, in this paper, the annual optimal mathematical investment model is proposed to estimate the optimal capacity and to establish investment plan of ESS facility for frequency regulation. The optimal mathematical investment model is newly established for each season, because the construction period is short and the operation effect for the load by seasons is different unlike previous the mathematical investment model. Additionally, the marginal operating cost is found by new mathematical operation model considering no-load cost and start-up cost as step functions improving the previous mathematical operation model. ESS optimal capacity is established by use value in use iterative methods. In this case, ESS facilities cost is used in terms of the value of the beginning of the year.
