At present, one of the big characteristics in electric power market in korea is unique seller but in the near future competitions are expected in the market. so additional service for the electric power are expected. Also with development of IT technology, remote inspection for power usage are possible so as consumption pattern analysis. KORAIL is one of the biggest consumer in electric power market so it is necessary to investigate power consumption pattern. This paper presents electric load consumption pattern for representative substation like urban subway, high-speed train, industrial line and simulation program for electric power rate definition program based on billing system database. Base on the substation annual power usage DB data, the characteristic of the substation power consumption are investigated and effective electrical billing system are compared each other. Through this program it is verified that we can save more then several hundred million won for a year.

In this paper, a novel type of auxiliary active snubbing circuit assisted quasi-resonant soft-switching pulse width modulation inverter is proposed for consumer induction heating equipments. The operation principle of this high frequency inverter is described using switching modes and equivalent circuits. This newly developed series resonant high frequency inverter can regulate its high frequency output AC power under a principle of constant frequency active edge resonant soft-switching commutation by asymmetrical PWM control system. The high frequency power regulation and actual power conversion efficiency characteristics of consumer induction heating (IH) products using the proposed soft-switching pulse width modulation (PWM) series load resonant high frequency inverter evaluated. The practical effectiveness and operating performance of high frequency inverter are discussion on the basis of simulation and experimental results as compared with the conventional soft-switching high frequency inverter.

Recently, foreign utilities emphasize the importance of the value-added services based on Information Technology(IT) as one of the strategic technologies for establishing a new power system in the future digital society. They develop many different types of the value-added services and apply the systems for customer. In domestic case, the data from the Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) System is used only for calculating the tariffs. Data from the AMR system can be strategic assets for utilities to provide the value-added services for customer. Development of the value-added services for utilities and customer needs processing and managing the AMR data. In this paper, the energy consulting service, which is adequate to new power system environment, is suggested for development of the value-added services. The application of the suggested service will bring the effect of reducing the monthly bill for customer. Also the service will give not only the effective demand side management(DSM) and load control, but also reduction of the investment for utilities.

For the large scale of electricity consumer, since the price for the electricity consumption depends on the peak power, the issue for peak power reduction have been being studied widely. Electric railway systems, which is one of the most representative large scale of loads, also has assignment to reduce the peak power since they have high peak power and low energy consumption load characteristics. In the aspect of the economic operation through reduction of peak power, this paper proposes a novel algorithm for power management system in electric railway systems using energy storage.

As the electric power industry has been revolutionarily transformed such that the distributed energy resources have been interconnected with power systems and a variety of energy service providers have been appeared, the need of Consumer Energy Portal as a core of two-way communication and service infrastructure between power suppliers and consumers has been gradually increased. Consumer Energy Portal can be thought of as a combination of hardware and software enabling two-way communication between energy service providers and equipment within the consumers' premises or a physical and logical link between consumers' in-building networks and wide-area access networks. In other words, Consumer Energy Portal can make the way the power industry has been traditionally operated the web-based way, enabling two-way interactions between energy service providers and consumers and mutual networking between end users' equipment. Thus, Consumer Energy Portal can be a kind of Service portal that provides new value-added services and efficient power operations that in the past. In this paper, for ESPs' integrated resources management, demand side management and value-added service provision, we have established the two-way access network that can gather real-time metering data using ZigBee technology and control physically networked equipment.

KORAIL is one of the biggest consumer in electric power market so it is necessary to investigate power consumption pattern and optimize power rates. This paper presents simulation program for electric power rates define program based on billing system database. Base on the substation annual power usage DB data, the characteristic of the substation power consumption are investigated and effective electrical billing system are compared each other. Through this program it is verified that we can save more then several hundred million won for a year. Also electric train air condition power consumption was measured to figure the method how to reduce peak energy consumption.

This paper presents a novel prototype of active voltage-clamping capacitor-assisted edge resonant soft switching PWM inverter operating at a constant frequency variable power (VPCF) regulation scheme, which is suitable for consumer high-power induction-heating cooking appliances. New generation IGBT with a trench gate is particularly improved in order to reduce conduction loss due to its lowered saturation voltage characteristics. The soft switching load resonant and quasi-resonant inverter designed distinctively using the latest IGBTs is evaluated from an experimental point of view.

In recent years, a cost-effective voltage-source type single-ended resonant-load inverter using MOS gate power switching devices and its related resonant inverter topologies have been commonly used for induction-heated cooking appliances because of relatively-lowered switching losses, simple circuit topology, low cost, compactness and low harmonic current in utility AC side. This paper present some comparative performance evaluations of IGBTs as sample devices in each generation and MOS controlled Thyristor(MCT) incorporated into the voltage-source type single-ended load resonant inverter for induction-heating rice cookers used for consumer power electronic applications, in which the output power can be regulated on the basis of Frequency Modulation Scheme.

생산자는 제품의 생산이나 판매에 소요되는 비용보다 낮은 가격으로 제품을 판매하지 않을 것이며, 신규시장의 진입에 따른 불활실성과 기타 영업비용의 지출로 인해 어느 정도 수익이 감소할 경우도 있다. 또한 CRM은 제품의 수익성을 논하는 것이 아니고, 수요자의 필요성을 만족시키기 위해 수요자와 관계를 발전시키고 궁극적으로 이윤을 창출하게 하는 분야이다. 그러므로 Customer Profitability Analysis(CPA)의 궁극적인 목표는 각 개인의 수익성을 평가하기 위하여 개인별 수입과 비용을 추적하는 것이 된다. 전력시장의 경우 경쟁체제로 변하고 있으며 전력사업자는 기존 고객을 어떻게 유지하고 이탈을 방지하느냐가 중요한 이슈로 떠오를 전망이다, 따라서 민간부분 경쟁 강화 등에 대비하여 기존 고객유지를 위한 서비스강화와 고객에게 맞춤형 서비스를 제공하여 수익성을 확보해야 한다. 본 논문은 CPA의 궁극적인 목표를 전력산업에 반영하여 전력사업자의 수익을 위한 전력서비자의 수익 성분석에 대한 방법론을 제시하고자 한다.
