A leisure ship has a stand-alone type power system, and a generator is in use on this condition. But the generator cannot be operated in condition of leisure activity, ocean measurement and etc, because of environment and noise. Recently, renewable energy system is connected with power system of the leisure-ship for saving energy. The renewable energy system can not supply the stable power to leisure-ship because power generation changes according to weather condition. And most of the leisure ship is operated without methodical power management system. This study's purpose is to develop SPMS(Smart Power Management System) algorithm using the renewable energy (photovoltaic, wind power and etc.). The proposed algorithm is able to supply stable the power according to operation mode. Furthermore, the SPMS manages electric load (sailing and communication equipment, TV, fan, etc.) and reduces operating times of the generator. In this paper, the proposed algorithm is realized and executed by using LabVIEW. As a result, the hour for operating the generator is minimized.

This article reviews recent R&D trends in SOFC development with an emphasis on industries that can produce the SOFC stack and power generation system. SOFC is an electrochemical device that can convert the chemical energy of fuel into the electrical energy with environment friendly system and high efficiency. SOFC power generation system could be classified as the portable power generation system, auxiliary power unit(APU), residential power generation(RPG) and large size distributed power generation. In the case of more than 10kW system, the major R&D trends are focused on the tubular type SOFC system with high efficient and long term stability to meet the commercialization of SOFC power generation system.

This paper describes a design method and characteristics analysis of the 3 kW grid-connected photovoltaic power generation system to establish the basic application technology of photovoltaic systems. The design specification of a 3 kW photovoltaic power generation system including a DC/AC inverter is suggested to investigate the system performance for grid connection. The results of the demonstration test from February to October show that the system with utilization rate up to 17% has reliable operation characteristics and is useful for peak-shaving of utility power.

The recovery time of developing SFCL(Superconducting Fault Current Limiter) has an uncertainty. In general, the recovery time is estimated at 1 sec and more, even though the progress of SFCL technology is considered. However, auto reclosing time of circuit breaker is 0.5 sec in Korean distribution power system. It is impossible to apply only one SFCL to power system because the recovery time is over the reclosing time of protection system. This study proposes a new SFCL system for distribution power system application. The proposed systems consider auto reclosing action for the protection in practical power system and consist of tow parallel SFCLs.

Hydrogen production using solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOEC) is a promising technology because of its efficiency, cleanness, and scalability. Especially, high-power SOEC system has received a lot of attention from researchers. This study compared and analyzed the low-power and high-power SOEC system in term of economic. By using revenue requirement method, levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) was calculated for comparison. In addition, the sensitivity analysis was performed to determine the dependence of hydrogen cost on input variables. The results indicated that high-power SOEC system is superior to a low-power SOEC system. In the capital cost, the stack cost is dominant in both systems, but the electricity cost is the most contributed factor to the hydrogen cost. If the high-power SOEC system combines with a nuclear power plant, the hydrogen cost can reach 3.65 $/kg when the electricity cost is 3.28 ¢/kWh and the stack cost is assumed to be 574 $/kW.

The introduction of smart grid, which is an innovative application of digital processing and communications to the power grid, might lead to more and more cyber threats originated from IT systems. In other words, The Energy Management System (EMS) and other communication networks interact with the power system on a real time basis, so it is important to understand the interaction between two layers to protect the power system from potential cyber threats. This paper aims to identify and clarify the cyber security risks and their interaction with the power system in Smart Grid. In this study, the optimal power flow (OPF) and Power Flow Tracing are used to assess the interaction between the EMS and the power system. Through OPF and Power Flow Tracing based analysis, the physical and economic impacts from potential cyber threats are assessed, and thereby the quantitative risks are measured in a monetary unit.

In this paper, the ESS(Energy Storage System) is interconnected in order to reduce the maximum load in the distribution system and the target location of the ESS is set to be close to the rated voltage. We also applied the weights to nodes with large capacity and number of customers in the system. In the future, the interconnected location of the ESS was determined until 2029 in consideration of the load increase rated of the system. We propose a cooperative decision algorithm of interconnected location of ESS for Power Distribution System.

Generally power system of ocean facility composes a solar generation system.The power to be generated by the solar system is changed according to the amount of sunlight of weather conditions. Output power of solar system is decreased with weather condition such as cloudy day and rainy day. And the power shortage of the ocean facility can occur due to the lack of solar energy. To solve this problem, this paper proposes the power control system for solar-wave hybrid system Wave generation system consists of wells turbine and permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG). This propose system set the specific area and measures the solar generation power and wave generation power. As a result of experiment, the solar power is a more static source than wave power, but the wave power provides energy during periods of no sunshine. The power characteristic of propose hybrid system have been obtained high reliability than a solar generation system.
