The efficiency of building-integrated photovoltaic(BIPV) system is mainly determined by solar radiation and the temperature of PV modules. The performance of BIPV systems is reported to be different from that of conventional PV systems installed in the open-air. This paper presents the relationship of solar radiation and electricity generation from a 2kWp roof-integrated PV system that is applied as building elements on an experimental house, and the energy saving effect of the BIPV system for a typical house. For the performance evaluation of the BIPV system, it produced a regression equation with measured data for winter days. The regression equation showed that a comparison of the measured electricity generation and the predicted electricity generation of the BIPV system were meaningful. It showed that an annual electricity generation of the system appeared to cover around 52% of an annual electricity consumption of a typical domestic house with the floor area of $96m^2$.

본 연구는 1991년~2007년간 우리나라 전력산업의 탄소배출에 미치는 요인들과 영향의 정도를 전력 수요측면과 공급측면으로 나누어 요인분해분석을 수행하였다. 전력수요측면에서는 전력사용의 효율성 향상이 배출 감소에 주된 영향을 미치는 반면, 전력을 소비하는 산업의 구조 변화는 오히려 배출을 증가시키는데 기여했음을 확인하였다. 공급측면에서는 탄소배출에 미치는 주요 요인으로 연료혼합, 화력발전효율, 발전구조의 변화 등이 있었으며 분석 결과 전력수요의 증가와 화력발전의 구조 변화가 탄소배출을 증가시키는 주요한 요인으로 작용한 반면 연료효율성은 향상되어 배출을 감소시키는 역할을 한 것으로 나타났다. 이로써 전력산업의 온실가스 감축을 위해 수요차원에서는 전력사용의 효율성을 향상시키고 공급차원에서는 화력발전을 대체하면서 발전 및 배출 효율성을 향상시킬 수 있는 정책이 마련되어야 한다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구는 섬 주거시설의 전력부하 변동특성에 적합한 태양광발전설비와 풍력발전설비로 구성된 하이브리드 발전시스템의 발전특성을 예측하고 성능을 평가하는 것을 목적으로, 경상남도 통영시에 소재하는 곤리도를 대상으로 수행한 사례연구 결과이다. 연구 결과, 시각별 전력부하 변동률, 시각별 풍력 발생 변동률, 시각별 일사량 변동률 등이 서로 다르기 때문에, 단순히 전력부하측과 풍력 혹은 태양광발전설비를 1:1로 조합한다면 상호간에 불균형이 발생하여 비효율적임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 부하용량선정방법인 최대부하법과 일일부하법으로 하이브리드 발전시스템의 각 용량을 설정할 경우의 성능을 비교한 결과 두 방법 모두 축전지를 포함한 풍력발전설비만 설치했을 때가 가장 효과적인 것으로 나타났는데 이는 풍력은 태양광과 달리 24시간 지속적으로 발생하기 때문이다.

국내 발전량의 30% 이상을 차지하는 원자력발전은 기저부하의 안정성 확보 측면에서 전력산업에서 중요한 위치를 차지하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원자력 발전과 도매전력가격의 관계를 분석하고자한다. 이를 위해 자기회귀시차분포 (ARDL: Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model) 모형과 Granger 인과성을 통해 원자력발전과 전력도매가격 (SMP: System Marginal Price)의 관계를 살펴보았다. 분석결과 단기적 효과는 다르게 나타날 수 있지만 총 효과 (장기효과)로 볼 때 원자력공급량과 SMP는 양(+)의 관계로 나타났다. 일반적인 장기균형식에서 원자력발전용량은 SMP와 양 (+)의 관계인 반면에 시차변수를 포함한 ARDL 모형의 경우 발전용량은 SMP와 음 (-)의 관계로 이론에 부합하는 것으로 나타났다. 인과성 검정결과 원자력발전 공급량은 SMP에 일방향의 Granger 인과성이 있으나 그 역의 관계는 성립하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 시계열분석을 통하여 원자력발전은 SMP와 밀접한 연관성을 갖고 있음을 발견할 수 있었다.

An optimization algorithm is developed based on a simulation case of a single family house model equipped with PV arrays. To increase the nationwide use of PV power generation facilities, a market-competitive electricity price needs to be introduced, which is determined based on the time of use. In this study, quadratic programming optimization was applied to minimize the electricity bill while maintaining the indoor temperature within allowable error bounds. For optimization, it is assumed that the weather and electricity demand are predicted. An EnergyPlus-based house model was approximated by using an equivalent RC circuit model for application as a linear constraint to the optimization. Based on the RC model, model predictive control was applied to the management of the cooling load and electricity for the first week of August. The result shows that more than 25% of electricity consumed for cooling can be saved by allowing excursions of temperature error within an affordable range. In addition, profit can be made by reselling electricity to the main grid energy supplier during peak hours.

An IGCC was evaluated as one of the next generation technologies that would be able to substitute for coal-fired power plants. According to "The 4th Basic Plan of Long-term Electricity Supply & Demand" which is developed by the Electricity Business Acts, the first IGCC will be operated at 2015. Like other new and renewable energy such as solar PV, Fuel cell, The IGCC is considered as non-competitive generation technology because it is not maturity technology. Before the commercial operation of an IGCC in our electricity market, its economic feasibility under the Korean electricity market, which is cost-based trading system, is studied to find out institutional support system. The results of feasibility summarized that under the current electricity trading system, if the IGCC is considered like a conventional plant such as nuclear or coal-fired power plants, it will not be expected that its investment will be recouped within life-time. The reason is that the availability of an IGCC will plummet since 2016 when several nuclear and coal-fired power plants will be constructed additionally. To ensure the reasonable return on investment (NPV>0 IRR>Discount rate), the availability of IGCC should be higher than 77%. To do so, the current electricity trading system is amended that the IGCC generator must be considered as renewable generators to set up Price Setting Schedule and it should be considered as pick load generators, not Genco's coal fired-generators, in the Settlement Payment.

Combined cycle plants which feature distinct advantages for power generation such as fast response, high efficiency, environmental friendliness, fuel flexiblity represent the majority of new generating plant installations across the globe. Combined cycle plants have different operating modes where the operating parameters can differ greatly depending which mode is operating at the time. This paper addresses the bidding strategy model of combined cycle plants in a competitive electricity market by using a characteristic of multiple operating modes of combined cycle plants. Simulation results of case studies show that an operating mode among multiple ones is selected strategically in generation bidding for more profit of generation company.

In this work, we analyzed correlations between life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and life-cycle cost of energy resources. Energy resources studied in this paper include coal, natural gas, nuclear power, hydropower, geothermal energy, wind power, solar thermal energy, and solar photovoltaic energy, and all of them are used to generate electricity. We calculated the mean values, ranges of maximum minus minimum values, and ranges of 90% confidence interval of life-cycle GHG emissions and life-cycle cost of each energy resource. Based on the values, we plotted them in two dimensional graphs to analyze a relationship and characteristics between GHG emissions and cost. Besides, to analyze the technical maturity, the GHG emissions and the range of minimum and maximum values were compared to each other. For the electric generation, energy resources are largely inverse proportional to the GHG emission and the corresponding cost.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international environmental treaty to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. In order to fulfil the commitments of the countries in an economically efficient way, the UNFCCC adapted the emission trading scheme in the Kyoto Protocol. If the UNFCCC's scheme is enforced in the country, considerable changes in electric power industry are expected due to the imposed greenhouse gas emission reduction. This paper proposes a game theoretic model of the case when generation companies participate in both competitive electricity market and emission market simultaneously. The model is designed such that generation companies select strategically between power quantity and greenhouse gas reduction to maximize their profits in both markets. Demand function and Environmental Welfare of emission trading market is proposed in this model. From the simulation results using the proposed model the impact of the emission trading on generation companies seems very severe in case that the emission prices are significantly high.

Several mechanisms are introduced for the procurement of capacity adequacy. In the competitive electricity market, however, it is a GENCO that makes generation investment decision. A GENCO will invest a new generator when it can get more profit than cost. There requires a model to evaluate profit with respect to a new generation investment. In the view of long-term investment, evaluation of a profit of a generator in the electricity market is quite different from that of short-term operation. In this paper, a new profit-evaluation model is proposed for the long-term generation investment. It can treat the probabilistic characteristics of generators, ie, forced-outage-rates, which affect profit of generators.
