2012년에 에너지 하베스팅을 위한 새로운 에너지 획득 방안인 TENG가 제시되었다. 동작에 따라 마찰 혹은 진동으로 전력을 생산하는 TENG는 새로운 에너지 하베스팅의 발전방안으로 소자 측면에서 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 하지만, TENG는 높은 전압(Voltage)과 낮은 전류(Current)의 문제를 지닌다. 이에 따라서 에너지의 저장과 변환을 위한 반도체 소자 혹은 회로적인 다양한 접근방안이 요구된다. 특히 5Hz 이하의 비규칙적인 발전에서의 변환 저장 기술은 이론적 연구보다 많은 경험이 요구된다. 본 연구는 발전 플랫폼을 저장 기술과 함께 대형동물의 움직임에 따른 발전소자의 실시간 발전 정보를 능동적 BLE 제어를 이용하여 송수신하고 이를 검증하였다.

Solar thermal power generation allows additional benefits of cheap thermal storage and easy hybridization with other fossil fuel-driven power generation. KIER has been performing the project for solar thermal chemical reaction hybrid power generation. The project is to build and operate the first solar thermal chemical reaction hybrid power generation system in Korea. For concentrating solar thermal energy $m^2$ dish type concentrator was adapted and a heliostat is installed for reflecting horizontal insolation to the dish concentrator. At the moment building the dish concentrator including mirror and heliostat with sun tracking system was completed and it's performance are being closely evaluated. This paper will introduce some detailed designs and construction procedures which we have experienced so far.

본 논문에서는 파도의 상하운동에너지의 이용효율을 높이기 위해서 부양체와 2 D.O.F.(자유도) 진동발전시스템을 일체로 구성한 파력진동발전시스템을 제안한다. 파도가 갖는 상하운동 주파수 중 속도 에너지가 큰 주요 주파수 ${\omega}_1$, ${\omega}_2$을 선정하고, 2 D.O.F. 파력진동발전시스템의 고유진동수와 선정된 주파수들을 일치시킨다. 그러면 공진효과에 의해 각각의 질량과 권선사이의 상대속도가 파도의 상하운동속도보다 커진다. 또한 2 D.O.F. 진동시스템의 연성효과로 인한 1 D.O.F. 파력진동발전시스템보다 더 많은 전기에너지를 얻을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제안한 2 D.O.F. 파력 발전시스템은 파도가 갖는 에너지를 더 많이 이용할 뿐만 아니라 더 많은 전기에너지를 얻을 수 있는 장점을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

무한한 에너지원을 가진 태양광 발전은 기상 에 의존하기 때문에 발전량이 매우 간헐적이다. 따라서 태양광 발전량의 불확실성을 줄이고 경제성을 향상시키기 위하여 정확한 발전량 예측기술이 필요하다. 기상청은 3일간 기상정보를 예보하지만 태양광 발전 예측에 높은 상관관계가 있는 일조량과 일사량은 예보하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 기상청에서 3일간 예보하는 기상요소인 기온, 강수량, 풍향, 풍속, 습도, 운량 등을 이용하여, 일조 및 일사량을 예측하였으며, 예측된 일사 및 일조량을 이용하여, 실시간 태양광 발전량을 예측하는 딥러닝 모델을 제안하였다. 결과로서 예측된 기상요소로 발전량을 예측하는 모델보다 제안 모델이 MAE, RMSE, MAPE 등의 오차율 지표에서 더 좋은 결과를 보여주었다. 또한, 기계 학습의 한 종류인 서포트 벡터 머신을 사용하는 것보다 DNN을 사용하는 것이 더 낮은 오차율 지표를 보여주었다.

Small Hydro-Power (SHP) is an environmental friendly technology. Usually hydro power generation projects are viewed as constructing large dams and reservoirs but available new research and engineering techniques have helped hydro power generation without large dams and without large reservoirs. In India, there are several water installations, irrigation dams, canals, streams or running rivers not tapped to generate power. In these cases the existing system and facilities can help in generating power with less investment and time. This area is yet unexplored. Harnessing a stream for hydroelectric power is a major undertaking for the energy crises and the global issues to go green. In this technical note a potential site for mini hydro power plant nearby Shoolini University is identified and examined for the economic feasibility.

A power generation systems are proposed to convert ambient mechanical vibration into electrical energy using cantilever-type piezoelectric materials. The vibration-based power device can be used for self-powered systems without batteries. This paper presents the theoretical analysis for the coupled equations of piezoelectric and structural motions and investigates the dynamic characteristics of the self-power system using transfer function method. The theoretical model is verified by the finite element analysis of the resonance frequency, the dynamic response of the structure and the sensor sensibility. Experimental results measured using a prototype system agree with the theoretical predictions. The system is shown to produce 34.5 ㎼ in average. Finally, we perform the optimal design for system variables to maximize output power.

As 10th energy consumption country in the world, it is very important to educate the importance of the energy to the elementary school students. The purpose of this class is to let the pupils understand the mechanisms and performances of tidal power generation as a renewable energy application system. To satisfy the educational goals, a lecture material and a simple type of tidal power generator kit is developed. As the survey result after lecture and experiments which include assembly and test, 'Well understood' is marked as 90% among 58 elementary students, and moreover 70% among them feel to participate in higher level course. This project shows the possibility and effect of the renewable energy education course as a service engineering, which is managed and carried out by undergraduates for pupils under the professor's guide.

Because of environmental crisis, researchers are seeking and developing a new, clean, safe and renewable energy. Solar cell energy and fuel cell energy have inestimable development potential. The paper introduces hybrid photovoltaic-fuel cell generation systems supplying a remote power load and hybrid system of solar cell and fuel cell considering the advantages of stable and sustainable energy from the economic point of view. Fuel cell power system has been proven a viable technology to back up severe PV power fluctuations under inclement weather conditions. Fuel cell power generation, containing small land us, is able to alleviate the heavy burden for large surface requirement of PV power plants. In addition, the PV-fuel cell hybrid power system shows a very little potential for lifetime $CO_2$ emissions. In this paper shows the I-V characteristics of the solar module which are dependent on the power of the halogen lamp and the I-V characteristics of fuel cells which are connected in parallel. Also, it shows efficiency of the hybrid system.

To obtain higher power efficiency of Residential Power Generation system(RPG), it is needed to operate system on optimized stoichiometric ratios of fuel and air. Stoichiometric ratios of fuel/air are closely related to efficiency of stack, reformer and power consumption of Balance Of Plant(BOP). In this paper, optimizing stoichiometric ratios of fuel/air are conducted through systematic experiments and modeling. Based on fundamental principles and experimental data, constraints are chosen. By implementing these optimum values of stoichiometric ratios, power efficiency of the system could be maximized.

In recent, the trends in national energy Policy are established in the context of the integrated risk estimation for various national electricity generating options. The approach takes account of health, environmental, economic, and social aspects of electricity generation systems. In the present work, nuclear, coal, and LNG sources are chosen because these hold more than 90% of national total electricity generation in a descending order. A life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology is used for comparing environmental impacts of these options during the life cycle such as construction, operation as well as disposal stages. Here, the LCA consists of life cycle inventory analysis, classification/selection process of impact categories, characterization process, and normalization process of each category. LCA can be an useful tool for environmental impact assessment of future national energy options. At the planning stage of future energy Policies, the results of LCA would be taken into consideration. According to data update at the construction and disposal stages, the LCA needs to be conducted iteratively.
