The power industry is currently facing many challenges, due to the new environment created by the introduction of smart grid technologies. In particular, the large-scale deployment of electric vehicles (EVs) may have a significant impact on demand for electricity and, thereby, influence generation and transmission system planning. However, it is difficult to deal with uncertainties in EV charging loads using deterministic planning methods. This paper presents a two-stage stochastic decomposition method with Latin-hyper rectangle sampling (LHRS) to solve the integrated generation and transmission planning problem incorporating EV deployment. The probabilistic distribution of EV charging loads is estimated by Latin-hyper rectangle sampling (LHRS) to enhance the computational performance of the proposed method. Numerical results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

전력선진국의 경우, 전력산업의 환경변화에 따라 시장의 주체가 공급자에서 수용가 중심으로 이동하는 변화를 겪고 있으며, 이는 소비자를 위한 IT(Information Technology) 기반의 부가서비스의 창출을 촉진시키고 있다. 이미 국외의 전력시장에는 다양한 형태의 부가서비스가 존재하고 있으며, 그 중 일부는 이미 수용가들이 이용하고 비용절감 효과를 입증한 사례도 있다. 이러한 부가서비스에 주로 이용되는 자원 중 하나가 원격검침 데이터이며, 원격검침 데이터는 요금 산출을 위한 사용량 정보 뿐만 아니라 수용가 영역에서 일어날 수 있는 다양한 이벤트를 분석할 수 있는 정보들을 포함하고 있기 때문에, 시간이 흐를수록 그 중요성을 더해가고 있다. 국내에서도 원격검침 데이터를 전략적 자산으로 인식하고 활용방안을 연구하여 국내 환경에 적합한 형태의 부가서비스를 소비자에게 제공할 필요가 있으며, 특히 소비자의 관여도가 높은 비용절감 측면의 서비스 개발이 중요하다. 이는 전력회사 입장에서도 비용 절감 및 효율적인 전력의 생산과 운영을 가능하게 한다. 본 논문에서는 소비자가 효율적이고 합리적으로 전력을 사용할 수 있게 하는 부가서비스로써 원격검침 데이터 기반의 전력 소비 컨설팅 시스템을 선정하고 이를 파일럿 시스템으로 구축한 내용을 소개하고자 한다.

In many countries, the electric power industry is undergoing significant changes known as deregulation and restructuring. These alterations introduce competition in generation and retail and require open access to the transmission network. The competition of the electric power industry causes many issues to surface. Among them, unbundling of the transmission service is probably the most complicated as it is a single and integrated sector and the transmission revenue requirement must be allocated to market participants in a fair way. In these situations, it is valuable to research the methodologies to allocate transmission usage. The power tracing method offers useful information such as which generators supply a particular load or how much each generator (load) uses a particular transmission line. With this information, we can allocate required transmission revenue to market participants. Recently, several algorithms were proposed for tracing power flow but there is no dominant power tracing method. This paper proposes a power tracing method based on graph theory and complex-current distribution. For practicability, the proposed method for transmission usage allocation is applied to IEEE 30 buses and compared with the method proposed by Felix F.Wu.

Power system outages can lead to huge economic losses for various industries. Jeju island power system outage in 2006 also caused significant social and economic impacts in Korea. There have been numerous attempts to evaluate the economic costs of power system outages. Power system outages can also have financial impacts on electric power industry. This paper attempts to analyze the economic impacts of the 2006 Jeju island power system outage on the values of the firms in the power industry using event study. Empirical analysis results are presented to show the economic impacts of the 2006 Jeju island outage on the values of the firms in the power industry.

The objective of this study is to estimate the distribution of a zone disturbed by excavation (EDZ) around tunnels that have been excavated at about 500 m depth in pre-Tertiary hard sedimentary rock. One of the most important tasks is to evaluate changes in the dynamic stability and permeability of the rock around the tunnels, by investigating the properties of the rock after the excavation. We performed resistivity and acoustic tomography using two boreholes, 5 m in length, drilled horizontally from the wall of a tunnel in pre-Tertiary hard conglomerate. By these methods, we detected a low-resistivity and low-velocity zone 1 m in thickness around the wall of the tunnel. The resulting profiles were verified by permeability and evaporation tests performed at the same boreholes. This anomalous zone matched a high-permeability zone caused by open fractures. Next, we performed resistivity monitoring along annular survey lines in a tunnel excavated in pre-Tertiary hard shale by a tunnel-boring machine (TBM). We detected anomalous zones in 2D resistivity profiles surrounding the tunnel. A low-resistivity zone 1 m in thickness was detected around the tunnel when one year had passed after the excavation. However, two years later, the resistivity around the tunnel had increased in a portion, about 30 cm in thickness, of this zone. To investigate this change, we studied the relationship between groundwater flow from the surroundings and evaporation from the wall around the tunnel. These features were verified by the relationship between the resistivity and porosity of rocks obtained by laboratory tests on core samples. Furthermore, the profiles matched well with highly permeable zones detected by permeability and evaporation tests at a horizontal borehole drilled near the survey line. We conclude that the anomalous zones in these profiles indicate the EDZ around the tunnel.

Most decision makers in the electricity industry plan their electric power expansion program by considering only a least cost operation, even when circumstances change with differing complexities. It is necessary, however, to analyze a long-term power expansion plan from various points of view, such as environmental friendliness, benefit of a carbon reduction, and system reliability, as well as least cost operation. The objective and approach of this study is to analyze the proper role of nuclear power in a long-term expansion plan by comparing different scenarios in terms of the system cost changes, $CO_2$ emission reduction, and system reliability in relation to the Business-As-Usual (BAU). The conclusion of this paper makes it clear that the Korean government cannot but expand the nationwide nuclear power program, because an increased energy demand is inevitable and other energy resources will not provide an adequate solution from an economic and sustainability point of view. The results of this analysis will help the Korean government in its long-term resource planning of what kinds of role each electric resource can play in terms of a triangular dilemma involving economics, environmental friendliness, and a stable supply of electricity.

The development of electronic technology has been rapidly achieved in the automotive industry. A trend that attaches electric equipment, including ECUs at vehicles, is observed. However, decrepit vehicles have several electrical noises and errors. The effect of electric noise on vehicles that are focused on smoke was investigated. Many researchers have argued that one of the reasons of the occurrence of smoke in vehicles is the inexact time of the occurrence of ignition. Moreover, various physical, chemical, and thermodynamic solutions were attempted to approach and many improvements were accomplished. However, in this study, the reduction of electrical and electronic noise is confirmed to improve the accuracy of the injection time on decrepit vehicles with electrical and electric technologies. Previous studies suggest that the distance between the pilot and main ignitions affect the occurrence of smoke and control the variance value of the distance between pilot and main ignitions with electric filter. Thus, the effect of reducing smoke occurred.

This paper presents a loss-minimizing vector control method for interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). Conventionally, maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control, which minimizes copper loss, has been widely used in industry. Iron loss, however, is not considered in MTPA control. In this paper, the loss model, including iron loss and copper loss, is derived to further reduce drive loss. The loss-minimizing vector controller is implemented based on the loss model. The controller generates optimal current vectors according to the operating conditions. The performance and validity of the proposed method are proved by experimental results through comparison with conventional methods.
