Recently, the installation of submarine power cables is under consideration due to the increase of electric power usage and the development of the offshore wind farm in island areas, including Jeju. In order to protect power cables installed on the seabed, it is necessary to calculate the burial depth based on the characteristics of anchoring, dragging and fishing, etc. However, there is no design standard related to the size of target ships to protect the cables in Korea. In this study, we analyzed the design standards for the protection of domestic submarine pipelines similar to submarine cables, and developed the risk matrix based on the classification by emergency anchoring considering the installation environment, then designed the size of target ships according to the cumulative function scale by ship size sailing through the sea concerned. Also, we linked marine accident conditions, such as anchoring, dragging, etc. and the environmental conditions such as current, sea-area depth of installation etc. to the criteria of the protection of submarine cable, and examined the size of specific target ships by dividing the operating environment of ships into harbor, coastal and short sea. To confirm the adequacy and availability of the size of target ships, we verified this result by applying to No. 3 submarine power cables, which is to be installed in the section from Wando to Jeju Island. This result is expected to influence in the development of a protection system for submarine cables and pipelines as well as the selection of anchor weight according to the determination of burial depth.

The growing integration of intermittent renewable sources like offshore wind energy increases the need for transferring electric energy over long distances, which may include sea crossings. One of the solutions available for bulk electric power transmission across large distances encompassing wide and deep sea is using HVDC submarine power cables. However, there are no standards or research related to the calculation of the continuous allowable current with various ocean conditions of a DC power cable that does not have an alternating magnetic field. In this study, assuming the typical two types of subsea cable models and two areas of the south coast and the west coast marine conditions, a continuous allowable current simulation of DC cables was performed. As a simulation result, the DC cable continuous allowable current find out the gradient reduction characteristics based on subsea base depth.

In a previous paper, the EMTP modeling technique using search coil test is established through various transient analysis including system grounding condition and grounding resistance for HVDC submarine cables. It was also proved by comparison with real test results. Based on this EMTP modeling technique, in this paper, it will be applied for modeling of ${\pm}180kV$ real HVDC submarine system(Jeju~Haenam). This paper variously analyses the effects of fault resistance including the resistance between core and sheath, the resistance between sheath and amore and the resistance between amore and sea water through EMTP modeling of search coil method. The results can contribute to the accuracy of detailed fault point prediction of search coil test for HVDC submarine cables.

With an increase in the penetration of offshore wind farm, the need of an accurate economic evaluation of offshore wind farm has become crucial. This paper presents an economic evaluation method of offshore wind farm in Korea reflecting the cost of offshore wind farm infrastructure (offshore substation, submarine cable and foundation) in its cost model. Each cost of offshore substation, submarine cable, and foundation is represented as a function of installed capacity, distance to shore, and water level, respectively. We have applied the method to the case study of offshore in Jeju Island and analyzed the economics under various conditions. The results show that the distance to shore is of importance in economics of offshore wind farm.

Under-voltage and over-voltage are the big problems in submarine distribution system. To solve that problems, integrated PV with voltage compensation method is proposed in this paper. This paper describes a simple method for controlling the series connection converter while the shunt connection operates as a back-up for sensitive load and verified by the PSIM software.

The repeaterless system can be designed by applying EDFA technology in receiver, transmitter and optical cable in the case of connecting several hundred km from coast to coast, between continents or islands. Because of no repeater the repeaterless system do not need power system to feed laser diode in repeater for signal amplification and cooper tuber in submarine cable. So we can be configured more reliable and economical compared to repeater system. But lower loss optical fiber must be used to get enough signal amplitude without the amplification of repeater. This report consider long distance optical repeaterless system by reflecting the limitation factor of optical amplification.

In the study, we analyzed the collision characteristics of a so-called arch-type submarine cable protector by considering the changes in drop heights of a stock anchor and material models for concrete and steel reinforcing bars. We considered plastic kinematics model and Johnson-Holmquist Concrete model for the concrete and linear elastic model and plastic kinematics model for the reinforcing bars. The drop heights of 2-ton stock anchor were selected as 3, 5, and 8.83m, respectively. ANSYS, a finite element analysis program, was used for the collision analysis. To save computational time, we converted those drop heights into initial velocities by the principle of energy conservation. From the sensitivity of the material models on the drop height changes, it is shown that the collision response of the reinforcing bars is sensitive firstly on the steel models and secondly on the concrete models, while the collision response of the concrete is sensitive only on the concrete models.
