Liquid air energy storage (LAES) using gas liquefaction has attracted considerable attention because of its mature technology, high energy density, few geographical constraints, and long life span. On the other hand, LAES has not yet been commercialized and is being developed recently. Therefore, few studies have performed an economic analysis of LAES. In this study, the levelized cost of electricity was calculated and compared with that of other energy storage systems. As a result, the levelized cost of electricity of LAES was $371/MWh. This is approximately $292/MWh, $159/MWh, $118/MWh, and $3/MWh less than that of the LiCd battery, VRFB battery, Lead-acid battery, and NaS battery. In addition, the cost was approximately $62/MWh and $195/MWh more than that of Fe-Cr flow battery and PHS. Sensitivity analysis of the levelized cost of electricity according to the main economic factors was performed, and economic uncertainty analysis was performed through a Monte-Carlo simulation. The cumulative probability curve showed the levelized cost of electricity of LAES, reflecting price fluctuations in the air compressor cost, electricity cost, and standing reserve hourly fee.

1970년대 초반에 한국의 원자력 발전소 계획이 시작된 반면, 미국에서는 1970년대 후반 이래로 신규원자력 발전소 건설은 실질적으로 중단되었다. 신규 발전소 건설 현황을 고려해 보면, 발전소가 원자력과 화력의 적절한 조합에서, 모두 화력 발전소로 옮겨가는 것으로 보인다. 그렇지만, 천연자원의 고갈이라는 관점에서, 경쟁관계인 두 발전소를 투입된 에너지의 측면에서 고찰하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 원자력과 화력의 두 발전소를 에너지 투자의 측면에서 비교 분석하였다. 비교 방법은 순에너지분석(NEA)이다. 그러한 분석을 통하여 산업체와 상품들에 대한 입력-출력 분석(IOA)을 수행하였다. 이러한 정보를 이용하여 순에너지비율(net energy ratio)을 계산하고 비교하였다. 한국의 자료가 불충분하기 때문에 미국의 발전소를 대상으로 NEA를 수행하였다. 순에너지분석이 결론적인 해답을 주지는 못하지만, 이 방법은 의사 결정 과정중의 제거절차(screening process)로 쓰일 수 있다. 에너지 계통을 고려할 때, 이러한 분석 결과는 일반적인 지침으로 사용될 수 있다. 이러한 분석은 다른 계통의 에너지사용에 대한 고찰을 하는 데도 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

The Samcheonpo ocean small hydropower plant (SHP) has a special feature of using marginal hydraulic head of circulating water system of fossil fuel power plant as a power source and having the characteristics of general hydropower generation and tidal power generation as well. Also, it contributes to reducing green house gases and developing clean energy source by recycling circulating water energy otherwise dissipated into the ocean. The efficiency of small hydropower plant is directly affected by effective head and flow rate of discharged water. Therefore, the efficiency characteristics of ocean hydropower plant are analyzed with the variation of water level and flow rate of discharged water, which is based on the accumulated operation data of the Samcheonpo hydropower plant. After the start of small hydropower plant operation, definite rise of water level was observed. As a result of flow pattern change from free flow to submerged flow, the instability of water surface in overall open channel is increased but it doesn't reach the extent of overflowing channel or having an effect on circulation system. Performance evaluation result shows that the generating power and efficiency of small hydropower exceeds design requirements in all conditions. Analysis results of CWP's water flow rate verify that the amount of flowing water is measured less and the highest efficiency of small hydropower plant is achieved when the effective head has its maximum value. In conclusion, efficiency curve derived from water flow rate considering tidal level shows the best fitting result with design criteria curve and it is verified that overall efficiency of hydropower system is satisfactory.

Thermal analysis was performed for a cold box of a hydrogen liquefaction pilot plant with 0.5 ton/day capacity. The pilot plant has adopted a hydrogen liquefaction process using two-stage helium Brayton cycle with precooling of liquid nitrogen. The cold box for hydrogen liquefaction has generally vacuum insulation but inevitable heat invasion by conduction and radiation exists. The heat loads were calculated for cold box internals according to multilayer insulation emissivity. Total heat load of 181.7 W is estimated for emissivity of 0.03 considered in field condition.

인산처리가 근류의 bacteroid 함량과 energy 상태에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 Bradyrhizobium japonicum MN10을 접종한 대두식물(Glycine max [L.] Merr.)에 저해농도(0.05 mM-P)와 정상농도(1.0 mM-P)를 처리하여 온실에서 재배하였다. 인산결핍은 식물체의 근류량과 근류량 식물체량의 비에 유의성있는 감소를 보였다. 잎, 줄기, 뿌리의 인산농도는 인산결핍에 의하여 75%가 감소하였으나 근류의 인산농도는 40%만 감소하였다. 근류의 bacteroid 함량과 근류에서 전인산, 전질소의 bacteroid와 식물세포로의 분배는 인산결핍의 영향을 받지 않았으며 전질소의 22%, 전인산의 27%가 bacteroid에 존재하였다. 근류의 ATP농도, 전 adenylate 농도와 energy charge는 인산결핍에 의하여 각각 77%, 46%, 37%가 감소되었다. 인산결핍은 근류내 식물세포의 ATP 농도와 energy charge를 각각 86%, 59%를 감소시켰으나 bacteroid의 ATP농도와 energy charge에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 근류가 인산의 강한 보유원이며, 기주식물에 대한 인산결핍조건하에서 bacteroid는 정상적인 인산 농도와 energy양을 함유한다는 것을 나타낸다.

석탄가스화 복합발전소는 기존 석탄화력 발전소에 비해 온실가스 및 대기오염물질을 적게 배출할 뿐만 아니라 국제적으로 쉽게 확보할 수 있는 저렴한 저품위 석탄을 사용할 수 있어서 연료를 안정적으로 공급받을 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 석탄가스화 복합발전 건설의 에너지안보 확보편익을 추정하고자 한다. 이를 위해 무작위로 추출된 전국 600가구를 대상으로 설문조사를 수행한 후 얻은 자료에 조건부 가치측정법을 적용하여 분석한 결과를 제시한다. 통계적 효율성의 확보를 위해 이중경계 모형을 적용하며 영(0)의 응답자료를 적절하게 다루기 위해 스파이크 모형을 적용한다. 분석결과 석탄가스화 복합발전소로부터 생산되는 전력 1kWh에 대해 응답자들은 평균적으로 6.05원의 추가적인 지불의사액을 가졌다. 즉 석탄가스화 복합발전소로부터 생산되는 전력에 대한 에너지안보 확보편익은 6.05원/kWh이다. 올해 완공되는 태안 석탄가스화 복합발전소의 예상 연간 발전량은 2.27TWh이므로 에너지안보 확보편익은 연간 13,740백만원으로 추정된다.

The Load Rejection to House Load test at 100% power was successfully performed during the YGN 4 PAT period. In this test, all plant control systems automatically controlled the plant from 100% power to house load operation mode. The LTC code, which was used in the performance analysis during the design process of YGN 3&4, predictions of the test agreed with the measured data demonstrating the validity of the code as well as the completeness of the plant design.

Many countries across the world are making efforts beyond reducing CO₂ levels and declaring 'net zero,' which aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions to zero by not emitting any carbon or capturing carbon, by 2050. Hydrogen is considered a key energy source to achieve carbon neutrality goals. Korean companies are also interested in building overseas green ammonia production plants and importing hydrogen into Korea in the form of ammonia. Green hydrogen production uses renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, but the variability of power production poses challenges in plant design. Therefore, optimization of the configuration of a green ammonia production plant using renewable energy is expected to contribute as basic information for securing the economic feasibility of green ammonia production.

Recently process industries from oil and gas procedures and mining companies to manufactures of chemicals, foods, and beverages has been exploring the USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Networks) technology to improve safety of production processes. However, to apply the USN technology in the large-scale plant industry, reliability and security issues are not fully addressed yet, and the absence of the industrial sensor networking standard causes a compatibility problem with legacy equipment and systems. Although this situation, process industry such as energy plants are looking for the secure wireless plant solution to provide detailed, accurate safety monitoring from previously hard-reach, unaccordable area. In this paper, SPSF (Smart Plant Safety Framework based on Reliable-Secure USN) is suggested to fulfill the requirements of high-risk industrial environments for highly secure, reliable data collection and plant monitoring that is resistant to interference. The SPSF consists of three main layers: 1) Smart Safety Sensing Layer, 2) Smart Safety Network Layers, 3) Plant Network System Layer.

A virtual power plant (VPP) technology is a cluster of distributed generation installations. VPP system is that integrates several types of distributed generation sources, so as to give a reliable overall power supply. Virtual power plant systems play a key role in the smart grids concept and the move towards alternative sources of energy. They ensure improved integration of the renewable energy generation into the grids and the electricity market. VPPs not only deal with the supply side, but also help manage demand and ensure reliability of grid functions through demand response (DR) and other load shifting approaches in real time. In this paper, utilizing a variety of distributed generation resources(such as emergency generator, commercial generator, energy storage device), activation scheme of the virtual power plant technology. In addition, through the analysis of the domestic electricity market, it describes a scheme that can be a virtual power plant to participate in electricity market. It attempts to derive the policy support recommendation in order to obtain the basics to the prepared in position of power generation companies for the commercialization of virtual power plant.
