Electricity generation through fossil fuels has caused environmental pollution. To solve this problem, research on new renewable energy (solar, wind, geothermal heat, etc.) to replace fossil fuels is in progress. These devices are able to consistently generate power. However, they have many drawbacks, such as high installation costs and limitations in possible set-up environments. Thus, piezoelectric harvesting technology, which is able to overcome the limitations of existing energy technologies, is actively being studied. Piezoelectric harvesting technology uses the piezoelectric effect which occurs in crystals that generate voltage when stress is applied. Therefore, it has advantages such as a wider installation base and lower technological cost. In this study, a piezoelectric energy harvesting device based on constant wave motion was investigated. This device can regenerate electricity in a constant turbulent flow in the middle of the sea. The components of the device are circuitry, a steel bar, an bimorph piezoelectric element and buoyancy elements. In addition, a multiphysical analysis coupled with the structure and piezoelectric elements was conducted to estimate the performance of the device. With this piezoelectric energy harvesting device, the displacement and electric power were analyzed.

Hot Spring Law of Taiwan was passed in legislative assembly on 3 June 2003. Hot springs would become one of the most important natural resources for recreation purposes. Both public and private sectors will invest large amount of capital in this area in the near future. The value of remote sensing technology is to give a critical tool for observing the landscape to find out mega-scaled geological structures, which may not be able to be found by conventional approaches. The occurrences of the hot springs in Taiwan are mostly in metamorphic and sedimentary rocks , other than in volcanic environments. Local geothermal anomaly or heat of springs transfer by liquid convection other than conduction or radiation. The deeply -seated fractures of hard rocks are the conduit of the convection of hot water, which could be as deep as 3000 meters in a hypothetical model of Taiwan. Clues to find outcrops of hot spring can be obtained by a structure-controlled model deduced by geological lineaments observed by satellite images and stereoscopic interpretation of aerial photographs. A case study conducted in Eastern Taiwan will be demonstrated.

Since the Paris Agreement, countries around the world have been planning to introduce RE100, CF100 and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism to achieve carbon neutrality. In these policies, advanced and renewable energy sources such as wind power, solar power and geothermal heat are recognized as core power resources to deal with climate change. The contribution of this study is that the wind power industry was added to the 33 major categories in the 2015 regional input-output table, published by the Bank of Korea, expanding the total to 34 sectors. As a result, the spillover effects of the 2.4 GW offshore wind power project are as follows. First, the domestic direct and indirect production effect amounts to 25.0 trillion won. Among these, Jeonbuk's production effect reaches 6.3 trillion won. Second, the domestic direct and indirect value-added effect is 9.3 trillion won, of which the Jeonbuk region's value-added effect is 2.4 trillion won. Third, the domestic direct and indirect employment effect is 450,643 people, of which the Jeonbuk region's employment effect is 125,085 people. The limitation of regional input-output analysis is that an increase in input due to inflation can lead to an increase in output, which may lead to a discrepancy from economic reality.

본 연구는 최근 정부의 에너지신산업 정책 중 하나인 발전소 온배수열 활용사업의 경제성을 분석하고, 동 사업의 활성화를 위한 정부의 경제적 유인 제도를 재구성하였다. LCOE 산출방법을 이용하여 발전소 온배수열 시스템의 경제성을 분석한 결과 현 수준에서는 기름보일러, 바이오매스, 발전소 보조증기보다 LCOE값이 높지만 지열 시스템과는 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 온배수열 시스템의 LCOE 구성요인의 민감도를 측정한 결과, 열공급 거리에 가장 민감하게 반응하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 온배수열 활용사업을 확대시키기 위한 정부의 경제적 유인제도 구성 시 REC 가중치를 열공급 거리별로 차등 적용하는 것이 필요한 것으로 분석되었다.

This study is to research technical measures for improving energy efficiency in the conservation and reuse of historic buildings focused on the recent research trends and case studies of the west. These measures are broadly classified into three types, the passive measures for saving energy and increasing comfort, the most cost-effective energy saving strategies, and the renewable energy sources. Firstly, the passive measures are divided into the elements and systems. The passive elements are awnings and overhanging eaves, porches, shutters, storm windows and doors, and shade trees. There are also the natural ventilation systems such as the historic transoms, roofs and attics to improve airflow and cross ventilation to either distribute, or exhaust heat. Secondly, the most cost-effective energy efficiency strategies are the interior insulation, airtightness and moisture protection, and the thermal quality improvement of windows. The energy efficiency solutions of modern buildings are the capillary-active interior insulation, the airtightness and moisture protection of interior walls and openings, and the integration of the original historic window into the triple glazing. Beyond the three actions, the additional strategies are the heat recovery ventilation, and the illumination system. Thirdly, there are photovoltaic(PV) and solar thermal energy, wind energy, hydropower, biomass, and geothermal energy in the renewable energy sources. These energy systems work effectively but it is vital to consider its visual effect on the external appearance of the building.

Because of energy crisis and environment pollution, we have become more conscious of the need to conserve heat in buildings. In response to this need. new requirements have been developed for insulation and other matters relating to energy consumption. Among others, more promising is to use the energy that is all around us in the dynamic forces of nature:the wind, tides, waves, rivers, geothermal hot spots, and the sun. The problem is that we have not been forced to find the technological means to convert these natural energies into usable forms because it has been too easy simply to dig or pump our energy out of the ground. Now, the problem is not a shortage of energy itself, but a shortage of technology for converting the energy that lies aoo around us into usable forms. Energy-conversion technology is the real issue, and solar energy is one of the brightest and most promising frontiers in energy conversion. All buildings are wrapped in a skin. Generally skins protect the person in stay from rain, wind, dust, noise, cold, hot etc.. However, there are some skins that provide energy from given environment into the building. Out of aoo, transparent insulation material is one of these materials that most effectively satisfies this kind of envelope function. Since, there are no research on transparent insulation in Korea, it has been studied very actively in Europe and in America. Thus, in this thesis, we will theoratically study and analyze how the heat flows through a trans arrent insulated opaque wall of a school building in Korea. It will be an important information for the effective using guidelines of transparent insulation materials in Korea.

One of the biggest environmental issues that our world has been facing is climate change. In order to cope with such environmental issues, the world is putting a great deal of effort into energy conservation. The building sector, in particular, consumes 36% of the energy consumed worldwide and emits considerable amount of greenhouse gases. Therefore, introduction of renewable energies in the building sector is highly recommended. Renewable energy sources that can be utilized in the building sector include sunlight, solar heat, geothermal heat, fuel cells and wind power. The wind power generation system which converts wind energy into electrical energy has advantages in that wind is an unlimited and pollution-free resource. It is suitable to be connected to existing buildings because many years of operational experience and the enhanced stability of the system have made it possible to downsize the electrical generator. In case of existing buildings, it is necessary to consider the live loads of the buildings to connect the wind power generation system. This paper, through the connection of the wind power generation with existing buildings, promotes reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and energy independence by reducing energy consumption in the building sector. In order to connect the wind power generation system with an exciting building, the live load of the building and the area of the rooftop should be considered. The installable model is selected by comparing the live load of the building and the load of the wind power generation system. The maximum number of the wind turbines that can be installed is obtained by considering the separation distance between the wind turbines within the area of the rooftop. Installations are divided into single installations and multiple installations of two different types of wind turbines. After determining the maximum installable number, the optimal model that can achieve the maximum annual power generation will be selected by comparing the respective total annual amount of the power generation of different models.

As the instability of oil prices rose because of the situation in Libya, oil prices worldwide recorded the highest level due to the interference in supply. And so, in the 21st century, increasing efforts are being made to use clean new renewable energy centered on solar energy in accommodation of the cycle of nature instead of being reliant on the oil exporting nations. In order to reduce city energy internationally, the implementation of a low carbon city under the combined cooperation of industrial. construction, new renewable energy and transportation sectors with continuous development centered on low carbon green urban planning is now becoming established as the paradigm of the times. Recently, the government has begun carrying out the One Million Green Home Project, which is a project where the government with the goal of providing one million renewable energy homes by 2020 gives renewable energy subsidization for a partial amount of the standard unit price of installation when solar ray, solar heat, geothermal heat, small wind power or fuel cell energy is used. Thus, through this thesis which studies the state of and surveys the green village at Shingok-ri Songhak-myun Jaecheon-shi, it is the desire that the One Million Green Homes Project will be more efficiently developed and plans for improvement formed so that a high level of satisfaction in the product will be provided.

This study introduces and analyzes the geothermal energy availability in Non-active volcanic region. Jeju island in Korea is situated in non-active volcanic region. The island is composed of rock with high pore and clinker, scoria geological layer formed by volcanic activity about two million ago. Volcanic geological layers with porous characteristics have air, vapor, water and a underground structure through which air or water can move easily. For this reason, it is probable that the mechanism of energy acquisition is by convective heat transfer. For this presumption, the availability of underground air as energy source has been studied here through theoretical analysis and experimental data. The energy output of our system ranged from 2,485,076 kJ/day to 4,060,978 kJ/day monitored using variable velocity air flow controller. Our system has capability to be a reliable energy source irrespective of environmental changes. Consequently, underground air can be utilized for energy source and provide the optimal design of heating/cooling system.
