Policy literacy plays a critical role in enhancing deliberative communication among the public, policymakers, and experts. It also helps develop a positive view of policy by the public, which facilitates public acceptance. Despite its importance, however, policy literacy has received little attention in energy policy practice. Therefore, this study explores factors affecting the public's understanding and knowledge (i.e., policy literacy) of nuclear and new-renewable energy policies. Accordingly, we analyzed data from an online survey of 790 laypeople in Korea. Specifically, we examined the effects of trust, transparency, and policy public relations (PR) on the policy literacy of the public regarding the two alternative energy sources. The analysis revealed that people showed higher policy literacy about the alternative sources when provided with more transparent information and exposed to more policy PR activities. However, we found that trust in energy plant operators played a negligible role in improving policy literacy for both energy sources. Based on these findings, we developed some policy suggestions to secure the energy policy literacy of the public.

The present carbon-based energy system will not last long due to its environmental and economical drawbacks. Hydrogen energy attracts more attention recently and seems to have large ripple effect on economy providing its technical, environmental and economical problems are solved. This paper analyses the situation changed from fossil to non-fossil energy system and the R&D policies of advanced countries by reviewing the world energy status and the energy policy of foreign countries. Finally, the R&D strategy of hydrogen energy technology was developed through analyzing the present states of energy research policy and programs of major countries.

본고에서는 에너지정책 대응을 위한 기존 계층적 권위를 바탕으로 하는 조정체계에서 벗어나, 중앙정부나 지방정부가 산업계 및 시민단체 등의 다양한 이해관계 주체와 네트워크를 구성한 조정체계로 전환될 수 있도록 정책제언을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해서 먼저, 정부의 에너지정책을 위한 조정체계로 전환될 수 있도록 법적 기반의 조성, 둘째로 중앙정부 차원의 에너지정책 거버넌스 구축에 기여, 셋째로 지방정부 차원의 에너지정책 거버넌스 구축에 기여하도록 개선방안을 제시하였다. 따라서 우리나라 에너지정책 거버넌스의 개선을 위한 정책적 방안을 마련하였다. 특히, 여러 에너지정책들이 잘 집행되고 성공할 수 있도록 부처간 의견을 조정하고 협력체계를 구축하기 위한 방안과 정부간 조율된 정책이 민간과 기업의 협력을 통해 잘 집행될 수 있는 체계를 개선하는 데 중점을 두었다.

As eco-friendly energy is in the spotlight, lots of countries are out to develop and disseminate renewable energy. However, Korea still remains in relative newcomer position for renewable energy. To overcome the present condition, it is necessary to carry out a study of establishment of renewable energy policy that is appropriate the present situation of Korea from examples of advanced countries. Among several renewable energies, wind energy is known to be the most reliable energy. Germany that has increased the share of wind energy in total energy supply is a representative leading country for wind energy. Therefore wind energy policy in Germany will be a role model for that in Korea. In this study, as a research of portfolio for wind energy policy of advanced countries, a wide survey for current status of wind energy and energy policy in Germany is carried out.

This paper presents the real condition and problems of rural communities, shift of social paradigm, and also discussed the results and efforts of existing energy supporting policy by literature review. The aim of this study is to suggest the new supporting policy of energy saving facilities for rural communities, and to show its necessity, framework, promotion method, and connection plan with existing policy. Based on this study, mainly three results can be drawn as follows; first, this new policy is required that not only suggestive reason such as energy crisis and social atmosphere, but also, financial support and welfare service for resident of rural area. Second, the various rural facilities including residence must be planed sustainable energy saving system by this new policy. And the third, this policy should be simultaneously adopted with rural development policy, and must drive forward that is closely connected with a related policy.

South Korean central government has launched the first comprehensive climate change policies in 1999, and they have been renewed every three year. The third policies ended in 2007. However, it is quite rare to analyze whether the climate change policies are effective against climate change. In this context, this paper aims at analyzing the effectiveness of climate change policy which was launched for seven years from 1999 to 2007 in South Korea. The effectiveness analysis of policy can be done in terms of the individual policy and/or all policies being synthesized as a comprehensive unit. Employing the latter methodology, this paper analyzed the effectiveness on the basis of economic growth as independent variable, greenhouse gas emission as dependent variable, and energy use and its process as intervening variable. Seven analytic indicators covering the three variables were selected on the basis of two points in time before and after climate change policy having been launched. The seven indicators were analyzed in terms of three aspects. They were the change in the state of each indicator, the effectiveness of climate change policy from 1999 to 2007, and the effectiveness process from 1999 to 2007. The effectiveness process was analyzed in terms of the relational context and its flow processing path. Economic growth was advanced remarkably with increase in the total consumption of energy. As a result, greenhouse gas emission increased. However, energy efficiency increased with significant decrease in energy intensity, carbon intensity, and energy elasticity. The expansion of new and renewable energy over total energy supply was not effective significantly on the decrease in greenhouse gas emission. The processing path of climate change policy being effective advanced toward increase in energy efficiency through energy intensity rather than toward sustainable development. Such a way of the effectiveness of climate change policy implies that most policies focused on adaptation rather than on mitigation.

The proportion of solar photovoltaic power generation has steadily increased in the power trade market. Solar energy forecast is highly important for the stable trade of volatile solar energy in the existing power trade market, and it is necessary to identify accurately any forecast error according to the forecast lead time. This paper analyzes the latest study trend in solar energy forecast overseas and presents a consistent comparative assessment by adopting a single statistical variable (nRMSE) for forecast errors according to lead time and forecast technology.
