Purpose - Electrical energy saving is one of the practical virtues relating to sustainable living. Therefore, policy-makers has tried to find a way to change the behaviors of individuals to encourage them to actively practice electrical energy saving, even if they have never had this concern or have only passively practiced electrical energy saving to this point. Prior research related to electrical energy saving can be categorized into several types. The first is focused on consumer characteristics linked to electrical energy saving. These studies are based on individual or household socio-demographic variables (e.g., age, gender, household income, education level, occupants, marital status, number of households), and psycho-graphics (e.g., environmental consciousness, value, attitude, motivation, lifestyle). The second is focused on policies (e.g., monetary incentives, information sharing, social comparison, feedback), and technologies (e.g., energy-efficiency home appliances, energy-reduced products, renewable resources). People generally have a favorable attitude towards electrical energy saving, while electrical energy saving practices tend to be less favorable. Therefore, it is necessary for policy-makers to seek out gaps between attitudes and behaviors and find alternatives to reduce these gaps. This study investigates the influence of authenticity on the behavioral intention of electrical energy saving. It is supposed that electrical energy saving practices are likely to be stronger as authenticity of individual or household becomes stronger. This study reviews prior literature and examines various studies to provide an understanding of the relationships between authenticity and electrical energy saving behavioral intention. Research design, data, and methodology - Hypothesis was drawn from analysis based on previous research. The items related to authenticity and electrical energy saving were selected from items found in previous research. To verify this hypothesis, data were collected via experimental survey method and the resulting data were analyzed using reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and hierarchical regression analysis. Results - This study found that authenticity had a positive impact on the behavioral intention of electrical energy saving. The higher the perceived degree of authenticity, the higher the behavioral intention of electrical energy saving. Conclusions - This study assesses the impact of authenticity on the behavioral intention of electrical energy saving. In order to enhance the practice of electrical energy saving, it is efficient strategy for policy-maker to improve the perceived authenticity of individuals.

Renewable energy industries, including sola cell plants, has been ever increasing ones for reducing fossil fuel consumption and strengthening national energy policy. In this paper we tried to identify occupational health hazards in solar cell-related industries operated in Korea. Poly silicon, silicon ingot and wafer, solar cell and module are major processes for producing solar cells. Poly silicon operations may cause hazards to workers from metal silicon, silanes, silicon, hydro fluoric acid and nitric acid. Solar cells could not be constructed without using metals such as aluminum and silver, acids such as hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid, bases such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, and solvent and phosphorus chloride oxide. Workers in module assembly process may exposed to isopropanol, flux, solders that contain lead, tin and/or copper. To prevent occupational exposure to these hazards, it is essential to identify the hazards in each process and educate workers in industries with proper engineering and administrative control measures.

기후변화 문제에 대응한 온실가스 감축 방안 중 하나로 정부는 바이오가스의 공급 확대를 추진하고 있다. 이를 위한 정책수단의 일환으로 신재생연료혼합의무제(RFS)의 도입이 논의되고 있는데 여기에는 바이오가스도 포함된다. 이에 따라, 본 논문에서는 2011년에 발표된 투입산출표를 이용한 투입산출 분석을 통해 RFS 도입이 가져올 바이오가스 공급 확대의 경제적 파급효과를 분석하고자 한다. RFS의 도입 내용을 감안할 때 바이오가스 공급부문은 액화석유가스 공급부문 및 도시가스 공급부문으로 구성된다. 따라서 이들 2개 부문을 바이오가스 공급부문으로 정의한 후 바이오가스 공급 확대가 가져올 경제적 파급효과로 생산유발효과, 부가가치 유발효과, 취업유발효과를 분석한다. 추가적으로 바이오가스 공급부문의 공급차질로 인한 부정적 파급효과를 의미하는 공급지장효과 및 바이오가스 공급부문 제품가격 변동이 가져올 물가파급효과도 분석한다. 분석결과 바이오가스 공급부문에서의 1원의 투자 혹은 생산이 가져오는 생산유발효과 및 부가가치 유발효과는 각각 1.0539원 및 0.1998원이다. 아울러 10억원 투자 혹은 생산의 취업유발효과는 0.5279명, 바이오가스 공급부문의 공급지장효과는 1.6229원, 바이오가스 공급부문의 산출물 가격 10% 인상의 물가파급효과는 0.0183%로 분석되었다.

Efforts are being made to respond to global warming. Interest in and demand for the private sector-led RE100 campaign is also increasing. Self-built solar power generation, one of the implementation tools for RE100, is not expanding. However, it can be an economical means of implementation in the long run. In this study, we intend to analyze the impact on the optimal ratio of self-solar power generation using HOMER simulation. OPR defines the optimal solar power generation ratio and looks into what changes there are in the optimal solar power ratio when self-power consumption increases and external power purchase price changes. As a result, the optimal rate of self-solar power generation has a low impact even if self-power consumption increases. As the external power unit price increases, the optimal ratio increases, and at a power unit price of 100 KRW/kWh, OPR is 24%; at 200 KRW/kWh OPR is 31%; and at 300 KRW/kWh OPR is 34%. This shows that the electricity price replaced during the life cycle has a high impact on the economic feasibility of solar power generation. However, when the external power unit price reached a certain level, the increase in OPR decreased. This shows that it is difficult for domestic companies to achieve RE100 based on the economic feasibility of solar energy alone. Therefore, efforts are needed to supply renewable energy in the public sector.

Around the world, there are increasing efforts underway to decarbonize the electricity generation system to mitigate the environmental impacts including climate change. While Indonesia has a huge potential for new and renewable energy, particularly solar photovoltaic, Indonesia has been largely dependent on fossil fuels. As of 2017, the installed capacity for solar photovoltaic in Indonesia was 78.5MW and this was only 0.04% of the theoretical solar potential, which is around 207.9GW($4.8kWh/m^2/day$). With the case of solar photovoltaic, this paper examined the reasons of low adoption of the technology and the challenges of energy transition in Indonesia from the policy and institutional perspectives.

Wind classification for exact estimation of wind energy resources was carried out using numerically simulated wind data for three years. The MM5(a fifth-generation Mesoscale Model), developed at Penn State University and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), was used to estimate the wind fields in this study. We also use a variant of the K-mean clustering to classify the wind district and define the relation between districts. Wind estimated at surface and 100 m high at Busan area is classified into the 10 and 7 classes, respectively. These discrepancies of wind districts pattern at surface and upper air meteorological data indicates the quantity of wind resources can be changed according to the level of wind data used in estimation. Therefore, the estimation of wind district classification by reasonable wind data is utilized to build the effective policy for wind energy dissemination.

Korea, which has a high dependency on energy imports, is greatly affected by fluctuations in international oil prices. In order to offset these effects, various policies such as 'diversification of energy sources' and 'energy mix' are being pursued. Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is a policy promoted for this purpose, and a compulsory mixing system is applied only to the diesel. In order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels in various countries, they are concentrating on the dissemination of bio-alcohol as well as bio-diesel, and commercialization through various verification. In this study, evaluation of domestic materials and vehicles was carried out to promote domestic bio alcohol fuel. We analyzed the fuel characteristics of domestic quality standard items by mixing them with gasoline of automobile at a certain mixing ratio (0%, 3%, 6%, and 10%).
