본 연구에서는 온실가스배출 집약도가 크고 온실가스 에너지 목표관리에 의한 감축의무 부담이 큰 발전 및 에너지 업종의 향후 적용 가능한 온실가스감축 신기술을 조사하고, 각 기술별 기술특성을 알아보았다. 발전 및 에너지 분야의 온실가스 감축 신기술로는 크게 효율 향상, CCS, 가스복합발전 기술로 분류할 수 있다. 감축 신기술에 대해 예상배출량 및 온실가스 배출 원단위를 산정식을 이용하여 산정한 후, 기존기술을 온실가스 감축 신기술로 대체하였을 경우에 대한 온실가스 감축량을 예상해 보았다. 그 결과, CCS 발전 기술로 인한 온실 가스 감축률이 30% 이상으로 가장 클 것으로 예상되며, 석탄가스화 연료전지 기술 및 가압유동층 화력발전 기술의 감축률 또한 20% 이상으로 감축 효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 신기술의 특성과 효율적 도입에 대한 연구가 지속되고, 향후 온실가스 감축목표 달성을 위해 적절히 적용한다면 국가온실가스감축 목표를 비용 효과적으로 달성할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

온실가스로 인한 세계 기후 변화가 심각해지고 있다. 이를 방지하기 위해 세계 각국에서는 온실가스 배출 규제를 하고 있다. 국내는 온실가스 배출량을 2030년까지 BAU(Business As Usual) 대비 37% 감축하기로 하였다. 국내 온실가스 배출 비중 중 교통부문이 18.58%에 해당하는 데 그중 도로가 93.75%에 해당하는 대부분의 수치를 기록했다. 대중교통 또한 온실가스 감축 대상에 포함되는데 본 연구는 도로 교통 중 비용이 상대적으로 적게 들면서 온실가스 감량을 할 수 있는 버스 대중교통의 온실가스 감축을 위해 진행했다. 본 연구는 애니 로직을 활용하여 온실가스 시뮬레이션 모델을 구현해 버스의 배차 간격을 조정하여 승객의 대기시간 대비 최적의 온실가스 배출량을 예측하는 시뮬레이션을 진행했다. 향후 더욱 정밀한 모델을 구현한다면 버스 온실가스 감축에 활용될 것으로 기대한다.

2006년 우리나라의 에너지 사용은 총수입액(28%), 해외의존(97%), 온실가스배출(83%-year 2004)의 비중을 차지하고 있어, 경제나 환경 정책에서 매우 중요한 산업분야이다. 그러나 현실적으로 국내 에너지사용에 따른 온실가스 배출 추계는 산업별 사용량에 국제기구가 권고한 계수를 곱해 사용하는 수준에 머물고 있다. 이러한 수준으로는 post Kyoto Protocol을 통한 개도국의 참여를 강제하려는 새로운 패러다임에 대응할 논리와 정책을 바르게 수립할 수 없다. 본 연구는 한국은행이 발간한 2000년 산업연관표를 기반으로 이형단위 산업연관표를 작성하고, 이를 통해 경제 구성 부문별로 에너지 사용에 따른 온실가스 배출 특성을 분석하였다. 분석은 네가지 측면에서 이루어졌으며, 이는 섹터별 온실가스 배출 밀도 추정, 각 그룹에서 온실가스 배출을 야기한 연료원별 기여도 측정, 산업별 배출계수의 산정, 그리고 국가 총배출량 추정이다. 여기서 추정한 배출량은 온실가스 배출에 관한 국가 공식 통계치와 비교 검증하였다. 연구 접근법은 에너지의 직접사용 과정에서 배출되는 온실가스의 양 뿐만 아니라 배출을 유발하는 간접원인까지도 분석하고 있어, 최근 확산되고 있는 전과정분석(Life Cycle Analysis) 개념에 적합한 모형이다. 이 모형은 향후 온실가스 저감 정책 수립의 중요한 기반이 될 것으로 기대한다.

This study estimates the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction resulting from photovoltaic and wind power technologies using a bottom-up approach for an indirect emission source (scope 2) in South Korea. To estimate GHG reductions from photovoltaic and wind power activities under standard operating conditions, methodologies are derived from the 2006 IPCC guidelines for national GHG inventories and the guidelines for local government greenhouse inventories of Korea published in 2016. Indirect emission factors for electricity are obtained from the 2011 Korea Power Exchange. The total annual GHG reduction from photovoltaic power (23,000 tons CO_2eq) and wind power (30,000 tons CO_2eq) was estimated to be 53,000 tons CO_2eq. The estimation of individual GHGs showed that the largest component is carbon dioxide, accounting for up to 99% of the total GHG. The results of estimation from photovoltaic and wind power were 63.60% and 80.22% of installed capacity, respectively. The annual average GHG reductions from photovoltaic and wind power per year per unit installed capacity (MW) were estimated as 549 tons CO_2eq/yr·MW and 647 tons CO_2eq/yr·MW, respectively. Finally, the results showed that the level of GHG reduction per year per installed capacity of photovoltaic and wind power is 62% and 42% compared to the CDM project, respectively.

The negative factors of fishery in environmental aspect of view are Greenhouse gas emission problems by high usage of fossil fuel, destruction of underwater ecosystem by bottom trawls, reduction of resources by fishing and damage of ecosystem diversity. Especially, the Greenhouse gas emission from fisheries is an important issue due to Canc$\acute{u}$n meeting, Mexico in 1992 and Kyoto protocol in 2005. However, the investigation on the GHG emissions from Korean fisheries did not much carry out. Therefore, the quantitative analysis of GHG emissions from Korean fishery industry is needed as a first step to find a relevant way to reduce GHG emissions from fisheries. The purpose of this research is to investigate which degree of GHG emitted from fishery. Here, we calculated the GHG emission from Korean bottom pair trawl fishery using the LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) method. The system boundary and input parameters for each process level are defined for LCA analysis. The fuel use coefficient of the fishery is also calculated. The GHG emissions from the representative fishes caught by bottom pair trawl will be dealt with. Furthermore, the GHG emissions for the edible weight of fishes are calculated with consideration to the different consuming areas and slaughtering process also. The results will be helpful to understand the circumstances of GHG emissions from Korean fisheries.

To estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, the inventory of rice cultivation at the farming without agricultural chemicals was established from farmers in Gunsan, Jeonbuk province in 2011~2012. The objectives of this study were to calculate carbon footprint and analyse the major factor of GHGs. To do this, we carried out a sensitivity analysis using the analyzed main factors of GHGs and estimated the mitigation potential of GHGs. Also we suggested agricultural methods to reduce GHGs that can be appled by farmers at this region. At the farming system without agricultural chemicals, carbon footprint of rice production unit of 1 kg was 2.15 kg $CO_2.-eq.kg^{-1}$. Although the amount of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) emission was the largest among GHGs, methane ($CH_4$) emission had the highest contribution to carbon footprint on rice production system when it was converted to carbon dioxide equivalent ($CO_2-eq.$) multiplied by the global warming potential (GWP). Main source of $CO_2$ emission in the rice farming system without agricultural chemicals was combustion of fossil fuels used by agricultural machinery. Most of the $CH_4$ was emitted during rice cultivation practice and its major emission factor was flooded paddy field in anaerobic condition. Also, most of the $N_2O$ was emitted from rice cultivation process. Major sources of the $N_2O$ emission was application of fertilizer such as compound fertilizer. As a result of sensitivity analysis in energy consumption, diesel had the highest sensitivity among the energy inputs. With the reduction of diesel consumption by 10%, it was estimated that $CO_2$ potential reduction was about 2.0%. With reducing application rate of compound fertilizer by 10%, the potential reduction was calculated that $CO_2$ and $N_2O$ could be reduced by 0.5% and 0.9%, respectively. At the condition of 10% reduction of silicate and compost, $CO_2$ and $CH_4$ could be reduced by 1.5% and 1.6%, respectively. With 8 days more drainage than the ordinary practice, $CH_4$ emission could be reduced by about 4.5%. Drainage and diesel consumption were the main sources having the largest effect on the GHG reduction at the farming system without agricultural chemicals. Based on the above results, we suggest that no-tillage and midsummer drainage could be a method to decrease GHG emissions from rice production system.

The Earth's temperature has risen $0.76^{\circ}C$ (degree) during last 100 years which Implies a sudden rise, compare with the 4oC (degrees) rise through out the past 20,000 years. If the volume of GHG (Greenhouse Gas) emission continues at the current level, the average temperature of the Earth will rise by $1^{\circ}C$ (degree) by 2030 with the further implication that the temperature of Earth will rise by $2{\sim}5^{\circ}C$ (degrees) every 100 years. Therefore, as we are aware that the temperature of the glacial epoch was $8{\sim}9^{\circ}C$ (degrees) lower than the present time, we can easily predict that the above temperature rises can be potentially disastrous for human life. Every country in the world recognizes theseriousness of the current climate change and adopted a convention on climate change in June 1992 in Rio. The COP1 was held in March 1995 in Berlin and the COP3 in Dec. 1997 in Kyotowhere the target (2008-2012) was determined and the advanced nations' reduction target (5.2%, average)was also agreed at this conference. Korea participated in the GHG reduction plan which required the world's nations to ratify the Kyoto Protocol. Ratification of the Kyotoprotocol and the followup requirement to introduce an international emissions trading scheme will require severe reductions in GHGs and considerable economic consequences. USA are still refusing to fully ratify the treaty as the emission reductions could severely damage the economies of these countries. In order to estimate the exact $CO_2$ emission, this study statistically analyzed $CO_2$ emission of each country based on the following variables : level of economic power and scientific development, the industrial system, productivity and energy efficiency.

Transportations are representative sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. Advanced countries (especially, EU and Japan etc.) have performed several efforts to decrease GHG released from railroad. In this study, we investigated the reduction methods of GHG in railroad industry. The GHG emissions in railroad are mainly caused by the energy consumption during operation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop technologies for the increase of energy efficiency and the application of clean energy such as solar and wind energy instead of diesel. From these studies, we can establish various strategies to reduce GHG efficiently in Korean railroad.

Over the past two decades, the options for solid waste management have been changing from land disposal to recycling, waste-to-energy, and incineration due to growing attention for resource and energy recovery. In addition, the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission has become an issue of concern in the waste sector because such gases often released into the atmosphere during the waste management processes (e.g., biodegradation in landfills and combustion by incineration) can contribute to climate change. In this study, the emission and reduction rates of GHGs by the municipal solid waste (MSW) management options in D city have been studied for the years 1996-2016. The emissions and reduction rates were calculated according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change guidelines and the EU Prognos method, respectively. A dramatic decrease in the waste landfilled was observed between 1996 and 2004, after which its amount has been relatively constant. Waste recycling and incineration have been increased over the decades, leading to a peak in the GHG emissions from landfills of approximately $63,323tCO_2\;eq/yr$ in 2005, while the lowest value of $35,962tCO_2\;eq/yr$ was observed in 2016. In 2016, the estimated emission rate of GHGs from incineration was $59,199tCO_2\;eq/yr$. The reduction rate by material recycling was the highest ($-164,487tCO_2\;eq/yr$) in 2016, followed by the rates by heat recovery with incineration ($-59,242tCO_2\;eq/yr$) and landfill gas recovery ($-23,922tCO_2\;eq/yr$). Moreover, the cumulative GHG reduction rate between 1996 and 2016 was $-3.46MtCO_2\;eq$, implying a very positive impact on future $CO_2$ reduction achieved by waste recycling as well as heat recovery of incineration and landfill gas recovery. This study clearly demonstrates that improved MSW management systems are positive for GHGs reduction and energy savings. These results could help the waste management decision-makers supporting the MSW recycling and energy recovery policies as well as the climate change mitigation efforts at local government level.
