Hydrogen serves as a clean energy source with potential applications across various sectors including electricity, transportation, and industry. In terms of policy and economic support, governmental policy backing and economic incentives are poised to accelerate the commercialization and expansion of hydrogen energy technologies. Hydrogen energy is set to become a cornerstone for a sustainable future energy system. Additionally, when constructing hydrogen production plants, economic aspects must be considered. The essence of hydrogen production plants lies in the electrolysis of water, a process that separates water into hydrogen and oxygen using electrical energy. The initial capital expenditure (CAPEX) for hydrogen production plants can vary depending on the electrolysis technology employed. This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of hydrogen production technologies as well as to propose a method for predicting the CAPEX of hydrogen production plants.

The temporal trends of the prioritized toxic water pollutants generated and discharged from the industrial facilities in the Geum-River basin, Korea were analyzed with the results of the nationwide Water Pollution Source Survey conducted in 2001 - 2012. The statistical results indicated rapid increase in the volume of raw toxic wastewaters whereas the amount of each toxic pollutant kept fluctuating for 12 years. Serious discrepancies in the survey data of the same type of industries demonstrated a low reliability of the survey result, which stemmed from several error factors. A unit-load for each type of industrial facility was devised to estimate the amount of prioritized toxic water pollutant based on the total volume of industrial wastewater generated from the same type of industrial facilities. The supplementary measures with an effective permit issuance policy and adding survey parameters of terminal wastewater treatment plants to use them as references to the Water Pollution Source Survey were suggested as means to minimize the errors associated with the false reports from the industries.

This research carried out an analysis on input cost and leakage reduction effect by leakage reduction method, focusing on the project for establishing an optimal water pipe network management system in the Taebaek region, which has been executed annually since 2009. Based on the result, optimal cost-benefit analysis models for water distribution network rehabilitation project were developed using DEA(data envelopment analysis) and multiple regression analysis, which have been widely utilized for efficiency analysis in public and other projects. DEA and multiple regression analysis were carried out by applying 4 analytical methods involving different ratios and costs. The result showed that the models involving the analytical methods 2 and 4 were of low significance (which therefore were excluded), and only the models involving the analytical methods 1 and 3 were suitable. From the result it was judged that the leakage management method to be executed with the highest priority for the improvement of revenue water ratio was installation of pressure reduction valve, followed by replacement of water distribution pipe, replacement of water supply pipe, and then leakage detection and repair; and that the execution of leakage management methods in this order would be most economical. In addition, replacement of water meter was also shown to be necessary in case there were a large number of defective water meters.

Active attention and effort are needed to develop an integrated water management system in response to climate change. In this study, it proposed models for cross-use of agricultural water and river maintenance water using sewage treatment water as an integrated water management system for the Yeongsan River. The impact of the integrated water management models was assessed by applying the concept of Nexus, which is being presented worldwide for sustainable resource management. The target year was set for 2030 and quantitatively analyzed water, energy, land use and carbon emissions and resource availability index by integrated water management models was calculated by applying maximum usable amount by resource. An integrated water management system evaluation model using the Nexus concept developed in this study can play a role that can be viewed in a variety of ways: security and environmental impact assessment of other resources. The results of this research will be used as a foundation for the field of in the establishment of a policy decision support system to evaluate various security policies, as we analyzed changes in other factors according to changes in individual components, taking into account the associations between water, energy, food, and carbon resources. In future studies, additional sub-models need to be built that can be applied flexibly to changes in the future timing of the inter-resource relationship components.

하천 인근에 위치한 빗물펌프장은 유수지를 대상으로 적절한 규칙에 따라 펌프를 가동함으로써 도심지 및 농경지 침수 피해를 예방하는 기능을 수행한다. 현재 대부분의 빗물펌프장은 유수지의 수위를 기준으로 단순한 규칙 기반의 펌프운영 정책을 사용하고 있다. 최근 지구온난화로 인한 기후 변화가 예측하기 어려운 강우량의 변화를 발생시키고 있다. 따라서 단순한 펌프정책으로는 지구온난화로 인한 갑작스러운 유수지 변화에 적절하게 대처하기 어렵다. 본 논문은 강우량과 저수량, 유수지 수위 등의 정보를 이용해 시스템이 적정 유수지 수위을 유지할 수 있도록 펌프 가동을 선택할 수 있는 심층 강화학습 기반의 자동 빗물펌프 운용 방법을 제시한다. 제안한 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 강우-유출 모의 모델인 Storm Water Management Model(SWMM)을 이용해 모의실험을 수행하고 현장에서 사용되고 있는 기존 펌프 정책과 성능을 비교하였다.

By analyzing the adaptive capacity, market formation and policy direction as functional areas of Technological Innovation System (TIS), the article evaluates the progress of renewable energy transition in the Maldives, with the inclusion of ideas from Mauritius and Cabo Verde. On the policy direction in the Maldives, technology roadmaps produced with assistance from International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and Asian Development Bank (ADB) are evaluated. Although there are inducing factors such as the Solar Risk Management Initiative, the progress of energy transition is hindered by the lack of technical capacity and local value chain. The findings indicate the importance of facilitating and establishing industry and knowledge networks, incorporating innovation policies, greater involvement of the local private sector along with international investors, and taking water-energy nexus to achieve complementary targets. The study adds value to knowledge by offering a simplified TIS framework, with a current insight of the energy transition in Small Island Developing States with a focus on the Maldives.
