  • U.S. National Research Council proposed benefits framework for energy R&D project as economic benefits, environmental benefits, security benefits and knowledge benefits. Following this framework, U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory evaluated the projected benefits of Federal Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Programs in the indicators of energy-expenditure savings, energy system cost savings, $CO_2$ emissions reductions. oil savings, natural gas saving and avoided additions to central conventional power. As this result, geothermal energy have predominant position in the energy-expenditure savings, natural gas saving and avoided addi t ions to central conventional power to FY2050. The projected benefits, in monetary value, of the whole supply-potential of geothermal energy in Korea were evaluated as 480.2 billion Won, 43.1 billion Won and 135.8 billion Won for the private energy-cost savings, social environmental-cost savings, and import energy-cost saving, respectively.

  • Reducing global warming potential has become important, and as one of those methods for reducing it, economic evaluation by applying ice thermal storage air conditioning system was performed. The floor area and height of the subject building was assumed $5,000m^2$ and 20 m. Absorption chillerheater system and air source heat pump system was used for comparing to the subject system, and payback period method was used to perform economic evaluation. Although the running cost of ice thermal storage system is reduced compared to two systems, the ratio is not significant compared to the increase of initial construction expenses, and payback period was calculated to be about 7.7 and 79.3 years. However, the heat storage system should be approached from the viewpoint of long term rather than the economic standard in the present standard.

  • 최근 도서지역 지하수의 염분증가로 인해 지하수가 점차 생활용수로 부적합해 짐에 따라 해수담수화의 필요성이 크게 대두되고 있다. 이러한 해수담수화를 수행하기 위해서는 많은 에너지 비용이 들어가는데, 최근 에너지가격의 상승으로 경제성 확보가 어려운 실정이다. 지열에너지를 활용한 연계형 플랜트가 문제를 해결하는 중요한 방법이 될 수 있다. 지열시스템은 지구 내부의 온도를 이용하는 방법으로서 항상 온도가 일정하며 24시간 활용할 수 있어 이용률이 높다는 장점이 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 지열을 보조열원으로 활용한 진공 막 증류법 해수담수화 플랜트를 설계하고, 지열과 연계하지 않은 일반 진공 막 증류법 해수담수화 플랜트와 경제성 비교분석을 했다. 그 결과 할인율 5%일 경우 지열연계형이 $23,822,409 만큼 더 높은 순현재가치 값을 가지며, 운영기간 5.36년을 분기점으로 두 플랜트의 현금흐름이 역전되어 지열연계형 플랜트가 일반 진공 막 증류법 해수담수화 플랜트보다 더 큰 경제성을 갖는 결과를 얻었다. 또한 민감도 분석에서 주요 변수들간의 결과값 비교를 한 결과, 스팀이용비용의 변동폭이 가장 큰 영향을 미친 점에 비추어 스팀비용이 높은 지역일수록 지열에너지 연계형 플랜트가 경제적이고 효과적인 솔루션인 것으로 증명되었다.

  • This study is to compare energy consumption of air-source, ground-source and dual-source heat pump systems during intermediate season using dynamic simulation. Ground-source heat pump has higher COP than that of air-source but requires additional power consumption of auxiliary equipment such as circulation pump. During intermediate season when the outdoor air temperature is favorable, total COP of air-source heat pump may be greater than that of ground-source when circulation pump power consumption is included. Dual-source heat pump which selects the more favorable heat source is compared with air-source only and ground-source only heat pumps for total power consumption. Results show that power consumption of dual-source heat pump is lower than that of ground-source only by 0.73%.

  • This study investigated consumers' perceptions and willingness to pay (WTP) for fruit and vegetables grown using renewable energy such as solar power, geothermal, waste heat from incinerators, hot water from thermal power plants. To this end, this study conducted an online survey of 1,050 consumers in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and the six metropolitan cities, and the main findings are as follows. First, most of the consumers perceived climate change as a serious problem, and 82.8% recognized the government's declaration of carbon zero was appropriate, which means that the government's active response to climate change is important. Second, on the pros and cons of the use of renewable energy when cultivating fruits and vegetables, opinions in favor of solar power were the highest, followed by geothermal heat, waste heat from waste incineration plants, and thermal power generation hot drainage. Third, at least 28.0% to 41.7% of consumers were willing to purchase fruits and vegetables using renewable energy more expensive than fruits grown using fossil energy such as kerosene. This means that the fruit and vegetable market using renewable energy is valuable as a niche market.

  • 인천시 강화군 석모도의 지열에너지 개발을 위하여 성부 파쇄대 해석을 위한 MT 탐사를 수행하였다. 또한, MT 탐사자료의 해석을 위해서, 지질조사와 심부시추공 물리검층을 함께 수행하였다. 석모도의 지질은 북쪽에는 백악기와 쥬라기에 관입된 화강암이, 남쪽에는 선캄브리아기의 편암류가 분포한다. 이 지역에서 지열징후는 편암류와 백악기의 화강암의 경계부에서 발견되었다. 심부파쇄대를 따른 영수의 순환에 의해 대상지역의 지온증가율은 $45^{\circ}C/km$ 이상으로 대한민국 평균보다 훨씬 높게 나타났다. MT 탐사자료의 2차원 빛 3차원 해석 결과, 전기전도도가 매우 높은 이상대가 동쪽으로 경사져서 지하 1.5 km 깊이까지 분포하는 것으로 나타났으며 이는 해수로 채워진 파쇄대로 해석되었다. 이 이상대를 목표로 시추한 결과 1280 m 심도에서 일일 4000 ton 이상, 온도 $70^{\circ}C$ 이상의 많은 양의 지열수를 개발하는데 성공하였다. 이 지열수의 화학적인 성분은 기존 시추공에서 발견된 지열수의 화학성분과 매우 유사하여 동일한 지열저류층, 즉, 동일한 지영저류층에서 생산되는 것으로 간주할 수 있을 것으로 판단하였다. 이러한 탐사결과를 기초로 2009년부터 한국지질자원연구원에서는 지열 열병합 발전을 위한 새로운 지열개발 프로젝트를 시작하였고 추가적인 MT 탐사와 탄성파 반사법 탐사, 이미 굴착되어 있는 20여개의 심부 시추공에 대하여 물리검층을 포함한 각종 시추공 조사 등이 수행 중이다.

  • The heat exchange between the Borehole Heat Exchanger(BHE) and the surrounding ground depends directly on ground thermal conductivity k at the certain site. The k is thus a key parameter in designing BHE and coupled geothermal heat pump systems. Currently, although a thermal hydraulic response test(TRT) is mostly used in practice, the thermal hydraulic TRT needs additional power and is generally time-consuming. A new, simple wireless P/T probe for a hi-speed k determination was introduced in this paper. This technique using a wireless P/T probe is less time-consuming and requires no external source of energy for measurement and predicts local thermal properties by measuring soil temperatures along the depth. Measured temperature data along the depth was analyzed. In order to verify the new technique for the determination of ground thermal conductivity, ground thermal conductivity k that calculated from the measured temperature data using a wireless P/T probe was compared with one obtained from conventional hydraulic TRT. When comparing the average k of two methods, the relative error was approximately 10%. As a result, the electronic TRT can replace the conventional hydraulic TRT method after carrying out the additional research on a lot of sites.

  • 2008년 8월 우리나라는 온실효과로 인한 기후변화 대응 역량을 강화하고, 에너지의 안정적 공급과 효율화 체계를 구축하기 위한 방안으로 '제1차 국가에너지기본계획'을 발표하였다. 이에 따르면 우리나라는 세계 10위의 에너지다소비 국가이자, 그 중 97% 이상을 해외 수입에 의존하는 나라로서 신재생에너지설비의 중요성이 크게 부각되고 있다. 본 논문은 일반적인 건물의 난방설비로 이용되고 있는 가스와 유류설비를 지열히트펌프로 대체함으로서, 전력계통의 부하율을 향상시키는 방안을 제시하였으며, 이에 따른 에너지비용 절감과 온실가스의 감축방안을 정량적으로 제시하였다.

  • This paper presents the heating performance analysis results of a heat pump system using a dual heat source. In this paper, a dual heat source refers to the ground-coupled heat exchanger using both a surface water heat exchanger (SWHE) and a vertical ground heat exchanger (VGHE). In order to evaluate the system performance, we installed a monitoring system to measure the temperature and power consumption of a heat pump and then collected operation data with 4 different load burdened ratios of the dual heat source heat exchanger. During the whole measurement period, the average heating capacity of a water-to-water heat pump unit was 37.3 kW. In addition, the compressor of the heat pump consumed 9.4 kW of power, while the circulating pump of the dual heat source heat exchanger used 6.7 kW of power. Therefore the average heating coefficient of performance (COP) for the heat pump unit was 4.0, while the entire system including the circulating pump was 2.7. Finally, the parallel use of SWHE and VGHE was beneficial to the system performance; however, further researches are needed to optimize the design data for various load ratios of the dual heat source heat exchanger.

  • Because of the limited fossil resources and the need to avoid emissions and toxic waste the future energy supply will be based on a large portion of renewable energies: wind-, solar-, biomass- and geothermal energy. Focus is on the utilization of wind energy coming from onshore- and offshore-sites. Generating electricity from wind is state of the art and feeding large amounts of wind power into the electrical grid will create some additional problems. Suggestions concerning energy storage will be made and the problem of power quality is discussed.
