  • Due to increase in concerns related to the climate change, state-wide promotion of the carbon neutrality has been in progress thus far. Smart City could be one of the measures as the initiative to mitigate the missions process. The primary purpose of Smart City can be summarized to be maximization of the social net-beneift to be returned for the local citizens and derivation of the optimal pattern of the energy consumption could belong to one of the elements included in the net-benefit. Currently, the energy consumption by the buildings has been determined to be responsible for the greatest consumption among the sectors considered to be energy-intensive. Moreover, considering the fact that the consumption by operations of HVAC is responsible for nearly 40% in the commercial buildings, it is virtually not possible to optimize schedules for the energy consumption with considerable deliverables from the perspective of the urban planners. Thus, the methods to implement the optimal schedules for the HVAC commissioned with the OHUs were concluded to be the suitable candidate resources for the simulation by EnergyPlus capable of monitoring the thermal changes in each subject space in the present research.

  • Hydrogen is promising a candidate for energy supporting the carbon neutrality policy for greenhouse gas reduction, which is being promoted in several countries, including Korea. Although challenging efforts-such as lowering the costs of green hydrogen production and fuel cells-remain, hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) are expected to play a significant role in the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. In line with this objective, the hydrogen FCEV working group in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) compiled and revised international standards related to hydrogen refueling stations as of 2019. A well-established hydrogen quality management system based on the standard documents will increase the reliability of hydrogen charging stations and accelerate the use of FCEVs. In this study, among the published ISO standards and other references, the main requirements for managing charging stations and developing related techniques were summarized and explained. To respond preemptively to the growing FCEV market, a continuous hydrogen quality monitoring method suitable for use at hydrogen charging stations was proposed.

  • Recently, as global environmental issues for sustainable development, such as carbon neutrality, have emerged, disposal methods of glass fiber composites, a material of existing wind turbines, have become a problem. To solve this problem, in this study, 30kW wind turbine blades were manufactured using flax fiber-based composites, which are eco-friendly natural fiber composites that can replace existing glass fiber composites, and their suitability was evaluated. First, mechanical strength tests were conducted to verify the feasibility of using eco-friendly natural flax fiber composites as a wind turbine blade material, and as a result, better strength were confirmed compared to previous studies on the properties of flax fiber composites. In addition, the suitability was confirmed through a static strength performance evaluation test to measure the static strength of the flax fiber composite blade using the manufactured 30kW class flax fiber composite blade.

  • Sustained economic development around the world is accelerating resource depletion. Research and development of secondary batteries that can replace them is also being actively conducted. Secondary batteries are emerging as a key technology for carbon neutrality. The core of an electric vehicle is the battery (secondary battery). Therefore, in this study, the temperature change by the heat source of the hammer and the rotational speed (rpm) of the abrasive disc of the Classifier Separator Mill (CSM) was repeatedly calculated and analyzed using the heat flow simulation STAR-CCM+. As the rotational speed (rpm) of the abrasive disk increases, the convergence condition of the iteration increases. Under the condition that the inlet speed of the Classifier Separator Mill (CSM) and the heat source value of the disc hammer are the same, the disc rotation speed (rpm) and the hammer temperature are inversely proportional. As the rotational speed (rpm) of the disc increases, the hammer temperature decreases. However, since the wear rate of the secondary battery material increases due to the strong impact of the crushing rotational force, it is determined that an appropriate rpm setting is necessary. In CSM (Classifier Separator Mill), it is judged that the flow rate difference is not significantly different in the direction of the pressure outlet (Outlet 1) right above the classifier wheel with the fastest flow rate. Because the disc and hammer attachment technology is adhesive, the attachment point may deform when the temperature of the hammer rises. Therefore, it is considered necessary to develop high-performance adhesives and other adhesive technologies.

  • The government is promoting various policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for carbon neutrality, one of the key tasks is to revitalize the hydrogen economy. As one of these policies the government has formulated a plan to incorporate hydrogen into existing city gas pipes, and aims to commercialize 20% hydrogen mixing by 2026. In preparation for the commercialization of city gas and hydrogen mixture, this study quantitatively predicts the scale of damage and the range of impact in the event of leakage of these two gas mixtures. The quantitative damage prediction method is to calculate the damage conversion distance through the calculation of the TNT equivalent by setting the leakage amount of the gas mixture in the event of an accident under a virtual scenario.

  • T Recently, the government has been promoting the expansion and supply of renewable energy as an alternative for achieving carbon neutrality and the nationally determined contributions by 2030. In 2020, the Ministries of Industry and Environment and the Korea Forest Service collaborated to build a nationwide onshore wind energy siting atlas considering wind resources and forestry and environmental regulations focused on central regulations. In this study, the ordinances of the local governments were analyzed to examine the effects of regional location regulations on the expansion of onshore wind power energy generation facilities, in addition to those of central regulations. A development permit standard survey of 226 urban plan ordinances of the local governments nationwide showed that presently in 2022, 52 municipalities are applying regulations on wind energy generation facilities by ordinances. This is twice more than that in 2018, when renewable energy power generation facility development was difficult. Additionally, the location regulations applied by these ordinances were organized by items and regions, and regulatory characteristics, such as the number and scope, were analyzed by regions. To analyze the spatial distribution characteristics, JeollaNamdo was selected as the case area. A spatial DB was established for regulated areas based on the regional and central regulations, and the spatial distribution characteristics and the regulatory scope were compared and analyzed.

  • 기후 위기에 대한 대응으로 현재 많은 국가에서 2050년 탄소중립을 목표로 하고 있으며, 우리나라도 2050년까지 탄소중립을 선언하고 다양한 부문의 배출 절감 계획을 내세웠다. 현재 건물 부문에서는 2050년의 목표배출량을 6.2 백만톤 CO2eq으로 설정하고 관련 정책적 수단을 검토 중이지만 달성 방안 등에 대해서는 구체적으로 제시하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 건물 부문의 이산화탄소의 배출량 산정 모델을 개발하여, 2050년까지 이산화탄소 배출 저감 시나리오를 시뮬레이션하였다. 이를 토대로 국내의 건물 부문 탄소중립 가능성을 검토한 통합 시나리오를 제시하고, 향후 정책 및 기술 개발의 방향성을 제시한다. 탄소배출량 산정모델은 연면적 예측 및 사용 에너지의 원단위 환산, 탄소배출계수 등을 고려해 개발하였고, 이를 활용하여 4가지 탄소배출 시나리오를 분석하였다. 먼저 현재 정책 기반 탄소 배출 시나리오는 탄소중립에 이르지 못하여 더 강화된 시나리오의 필요성을 보여준다. 신규 건물을 대상으로 한 제로 에너지화 제도 기반 시나리오는 전체 탄소배출량에 큰 기여를 하지 못하며, 기존 건물 대상의 그린 리모델링 제도 기반 시나리오에서는 10년 이상 건물에 50% 이상의 높은 에너지 효율 개선을 시행해야 한다는 결과를 도출하였다. 또한 전기화 시나리오에서는 화석연료와 전력의 탄소배출계수를 비교하여 적절한 에너지 전환 시점을 계산하였다. 그 결과, 건물 부문에서 2050년까지 탄소배출량 감축 목표 달성을 위해 신축 건물의 에너지 자립율 100%, 에너지 전환 계획과 연동한 건물의 전기화, 그리고 그린리모델링을 통한 효율 개선 기준을 47% 이상 달성하는 조건을 만족해야 한다는 결과를 얻었다. 이 연구는 도전적인 온실가스 감축 마련의 필요성을 제시하였으며, 탄소중립 가능성을 제시하여 실질적인 감축정책에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

  • In this study, the basic properties of CO2 immobilized desulfurized gypsum (CFBG) and the possibility of being used as a stimulus for slag cement were reviewed, and performance evaluation was conducted through a concrete mixing test. The main components of CFBG were CaO and SO3, and CaO and SO3 increased as the drying temperature increased. The moisture content of undried CFBG was 15.7 %, the drying temperature was 1.7 % and the drying temperature was 0.03 % at 105 ℃. Mortar using CFBG tended to have a lower flow value as the drying temperature increased, and the compressive strength was equivalent to that of the FGB use mixture. As a result of the concrete experiment using CFBG SC, both slump and air volume satisfied the target range after 60 minutes, and the compressive strength tended to increase overall compared to the ternary binder mixture.

  • Hydrogen energy is an eco-friendly energy that produces heat and electricity with high energy efficiency and does not emit harmful substances such as greenhouse gases and fine dust. In particular, smart hydrogen energy is an economical, sustainable, and safe future smart hydrogen energy service, which means a service that stably operates based on 'data' by digitally integrating hydrogen energy infrastructure. In this paper, in order to implement a data-based hydrogen charging station demand forecasting model, three hydrogen charging stations (Chuncheon, Sokcho, Pyeongchang) installed in Gangwon-do were selected, supply and demand data of hydrogen charging stations were secured, and 7 machine learning and deep learning algorithms were used. was selected to learn a model with a total of 27 types of input data (weather data + demand for hydrogen charging stations), and the model was evaluated with root mean square error (RMSE). Through this, this paper proposes a machine learning-based hydrogen charging station energy demand prediction model for optimal hydrogen energy supply and demand.

  • In response to the increasing global competition for technological supremacy to address climate change, it is crucial to develop workforce development programs in the field of climate technology to accumulate the national technological capabilities. However, these programs are rarely monitored and evaluated, and research related to monitoring and evaluation in the field of climate technology workforce development is limited. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of workforce development programs in hydrogen energy and policy sectors on students' R&D capabilities and career aspirations in these sectors. The survey and focus group interviews with beneficiaries revealed that individual students' R&D capabilities and career confidence improved, and group-level R&D capabilities were also enhanced, and students felt greater appreciation on the significance of climate technology. The results of this study suggest that the necessary R&D capabilities to train R&D workforce in climate technology have been developed, but more measures are required to promote career development in this field.
