온실가스 저감과 안정적인 에너지 확보를 위해, 정부는 신재생에너지 지원사업 정책을 보급보조사업(그린홈 100만호 사업, 일반보급보조사업, 지방보급사업)과 기반보조사업(발전차액지원제도, RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standard)시범사업)으로 나누어 수행하고 있다. 특히 최근 개정된 "신에너지 및 재생에너지 개발 이용 보급 촉진법"에서는 RPS도입을 염두에 두고, 1차에너지 공급 중 신재생에너지 공급의무 비율은 2015년까지 13%, 특히 태양에너지는 2015년 1,209GWh라는 목표를 제시하고 있다. 신재생에너지보급이 지역적 특성을 갖고, 신재생에너지원별 비용측면의 경쟁력에 차이가 남에 따라, 향후 RPS 도입시 예상되는 지역별 경쟁력 평가는 중요한 의미를 가질 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 이러한 목적에 따라 우선 그린홈 100만호 사업, 일반 및 지방보급사업의 경우, 설비용량 당 투자비의 분포를 살펴보았다. 그린홈 100만호 사업의 설비용량 당 투자비는 평균($\bar{X}$) 6,449,032원/KW, 표본오차(s) 358,743으로 나타났다. 낮은 설비용량 당 투자비를 가지는 사업설비는 경남(4,256,667원/KW), 광주(4,331,333원/KW) 등에 분포하였다. 그린홈 100만호 사업 이외의 survey 데이터는 다소 불비한 측면이 있으나 일반 및 지방보급사업의 경우, 지역별 설비용량 당 투자비 분포에 대한 평균($\bar{X}$)은 9,145,692원/KW, 9,336,695원/KW, 표본오차(S) 2,154,263, 470,945로 나타났다. 발전차액지원제도의 경우, 지역별 설비보급에 대한 분포는 전남 389개 사업설비의 소용량 사업이 집중적인 지원을 받고 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 에너지관리공단의 2009년 전수조사 내부자료인 국내 태양광사업의 현황을 분석함으로써, 태양광 사업에 가중치를 적용하는 RPS 도입 시, 보급경쟁력을 비교 분석하여 지역별, 설비별 사업투자를 위한 기초적인 가이드라인을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 연구과정에서 확인된 데이터 오류 및 자료 부재의 문제점 등은 향후 합당한 지역별, 설비별 비교분석을 위해 보완되어야 할 부분으로 지적한다.

Many countries have implemented a variety of climate and energy policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and expand renewable energy production. The ultimate goals of those policies are associated with transition to a low-carbon economy that aims to combat climate change and economic growth. This study aims to examine empirically if the countries which implement overlapping climate policies and renewable energy policies show additional reduction of the GHG emissions than the countries which implement single climate or renewable energy policy. The result shows that overlapping policies contribute to reduce additional GHG but not all cases. In particular, only overlapping policies mixing 'ETS and RPS(renewable portfolio standards)' and 'Carbon Tax and FIT(Feed-in Tariff)' can lead to additional reduction of GHG emissions.

It is recognized that RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standard) and FIT(Feed-in Tariff) are two main policy instruments to promote Renewable Electricity(RE). The Korean Government announced in 2008 that RE promotion scheme will be changed to RPS from current FIT system in 2012. But we believe RPS is inferior to FIT for promoting less developed technologies such as photovoltaics or wind power. This is because the achievement of RE promotion in countries adopting RPS is markedly worse than that in European counties or Janpan adopting FIT. If the policy change is inevitable, when considering the lessons from Japan's failure as well as supporting the less developed technologies, it is recommended that either the market should be divided into several technology and scale categories, or more RPS-Credit per kWh should be assigned to the photovoltaic and wind power than instead of letting the all technologies compete in the "open category". It is also recommended that (1) Renewable Energy Promotion Fund(tentative name) based on a part of current energy related tax revenue should be introduced, or (2) cost of supporting the Renewable Electricity should automatically be transferred into the electricity bill of electricity consumers following the German System.

As Korean government has activated the renewable portfolio standard (RPS) since 2012, producers have been seeking and using the various renewable resources to meet the RPS quota. One of these efforts, Power Bio-Fuel oil demonstration project is being conducted to check the operability and compatibility with fossil fuel, Fuel oil (B-C) from 2014. The oil is a mixture of vegetable oil and animal fat or fatty acid ester of them and should satisfy some specification to use the power generation. The oil's quality and combustion characteristics are different from conventional oil, Fuel oil (B-C) in current power plant facility. In this study, it was investigated the storage stability and malodor intensity of Bio-Fuel oil.

A Renewable Portfolio Standard(RPS) is a regulation that requires the increased generation of energy from renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, fuel cell, small hydro, biomass and geothermal. By environmental, technical and these regulatory reasons, the amount of renewable energy sources will be increased in a network. However, it is hard to assess risk of a transmission network with large scale renewable energy sources because the output characteristics of renewable energies are intermittent. This paper evaluates effects of a transmission system with supplemental large scale renewable energies into the existing system. To evaluate these effects, a methodology for risk level of components in a network is proposed considering steady state and contingency N-1 in this paper. We consider line current and bus voltage in each state of a network.

Availability of reliable and affordable energy supply is a prerequisite for economic growth. Renewables are the third largest contributor to global electricity production after coal and natural gas and account for a share of 18%. Power generating capacity from renewables has increased to around 900GW by the year 2007. Today biodiesel fuels have been in commercial use in many countries and recently the world-wide biodiesel market has experienced considerable growth, which is partly due to various tax concession programs and other financial incentives. In Korea, biodiesel has already been used for transportation fuel, but not used for power generation fuel yet Korean government has a strategy for renewable energy propagation, especially the goal of power generation amount by renewable energy is 3% of total power production by 2012. This paper focuses on the feasibility study for adaptability and strategy of using biodiesel as power generation fuel. The study also has the plan to replace the fuel of thermal power plant, gas turbine and distributed power system. As the increase of biodiesel fuel, I look forward to environment-friendly power generation and the strategy of Renewable Portfolio Standards(RPS).

Recently, the government is actively promoting the RFS(Renewable Fuel Standards) and RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standards). Therefore, the importance of renewable energy fuel is being highlighted more than ever. Now is the time required active research in Korea. Since power bio-fuel oil demonstration project is underway dissemination to meet RPS quota. In this study, we investigated emission performance to make the performance standard draft of bio-fuel oil. In addition, the quality properties of the fuel oil and bio-oil, and after combustion in industrial boilers and compared the amount of exhaust gas. It was reduced emissions of bio-oil in industrial boilers due to bio-fuel properties as compare with fuel oil.

In these days, many countries carry out many renewable energy policies to increase the renewable energy portion and to reduce the GHG(Green House Gas). In Korea, RPS(Renewable Portfolio Standards) focused on over 500MW power producers is conducting. And they are using the bio-fuel oil to meet their RPS quota. The oil is a mixture of animal and vegetable fat or fatty acid ester of them and should satisfy some specifications to use the power generation such as viscosity, pour point, acid number. Depends on the raw materials, quality characteristics of power bio-fuel oil are changed. By adding the power bio-fuel oil, pour point, density, sulfur content and viscosity are decreased and acid number, iodine number, oxygen content are increased. In this study, we test the quality characteristic of power bio-fuel oil and the property changes by the blending ratio of power bio-fuel oil & conventional fuel oil.

This study analyzed whether a spatial difference exists in the willingness to pay(WTP) for renewable electricity, by applying the contingent valuation method(CVM). Considering renewable portfolio standards(RPS) as the hypothetical market, we asked WTP in the form of the monthly electricity bills for using renewable electricity; the respondents were people living in Seoul, Ulsan, JeollaNamdo, and Gangwondo. Our empirical results showed that the mean WTP of Gangwondo was the highest, and that of JeollaNamdo, the lowest. The hypothesis that the WTP of the entire sample would not differ from that of the individual regions was rejected. Hence, a spatial difference probably exists in the WTP for electricity from renewable energy. Further, we attributed the spatial differences in WTP to the experience of those staying near the renewable energy facility and the acceptability of the facility.
