  • 탄소함유 에너지원의 고갈과 가격상승, 이들 에너지 사용에 수반되는 지구 온난화 문제들로 세계는 새로운 에너지원을 도입하고자 노력하고 있다. 그 중 풍력에너지는 자원이 풍부하고 끊임없이 재생되며 광범위한 지역에 분포되어 있고, 운전 중에 온실가스의 배출이 없다는 점에서 가장 경제성이 있고 유용한 에너지원으로 인식되고 있다. 풍력발전기는 선진 국가에서부터 꾸준히 성장해 왔으며, 그 성능을 개선시키기 위하여 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 풍력발전기를 설치하여 발전단지를 조성함에 있어서 발전량을 예측하기 위해서 발전기가 세워질 모든 지점에 허브높이의 실측타워를 세워 풍황데이터를 측정하여야 하지만 이런 방법은 재정적인 부담이 매우 크다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 서산기상대에서 측정된 기상데이터를 이용하여 태안해안국립공원내 만리포해수욕장 지역의 풍황 및 발전량을 예측하였다. 이 때 풍황 및 발전량 예측은 풍력단지 설계를 목적으로 사용되고 있는 WindPRO Basic과 WAsP-Interface 모듈을 이용하였다. 이렇게 예측된 풍황을 이용하여 발전단지를 조성하고, PARK 모듈을 사용하여 발전단지의 에너지를 계산하였으며, WindBANK 모듈을 이용하여 단지의 경제성을 평가하였다.

  • To evaluate the suitability of wind energy which is one of the alternative future resources, middle and long term survey and verification about the value of wind resource is needed. However, because measurement equipments of wind information is generally installed at remote and secluded place, it is not easy to gather wind information and relative data in real time. In this paper, we design and demonstrate the system which gathers wind information and provides users with services, therefore it help us to decide the suitability and applicability of wind resources. Also, we develop the system by using web services technologies so as to provide a variety of clients with adequate services and information.

  • The hybrid wind-solar energy concept has a big influence on the spread of wind and solar power projects in India since it combines the benefits of both industries while also providing extra benefits such as resource sharing such as land, infrastructure, and power evacuation systems. Furthermore, while the hybrid policy may reduce certain barriers to the installation of wind and solar energy in India, there are still some issues that must be resolved rapidly in order to ensure a sustainable installation. According to the study's findings, the installation of wind and solar power plants is significantly influenced by energy policy. The wind-solar hybrid energy strategy will also be crucial in the near future for growing the usage of renewable energy sources. Aside from that, the establishment of Green Energy Open Access (GEOA) and the restart of the trading of Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) would promote the quick deployment of standalone and hybrid renewable power projects throughout the nation, enabling it to reach 500 GW of installed non-fossil energy capacity by 2030.

  • In order to clarify the characteristics of satellite based sea wind data assimilations applied for the estimation of wind resources around the Korean peninsula, several numerical experiments were carried out using WRF. Satellite sea wind data used in this study are QuikSCAT from NASA and ASCAT from ESA. When the wind resources are estimated with data assimilation, its estimation accuracy is improved clearly. Since the band width is broad for QuikSCAT, statistical accuracy of the estimated wind resources with QuikSCAT assimilations is better than that with ASCAT assimilations. But the wind estimated around sub-satellite point matches better with of ASCAT compared to QuikSCAT assimilation. The impact of sea wind data assimilation on the prediction of wind resources lasts for 6 hours after data assimilation starts, therefore the data assimilation processes using both fine spatial and temporal resolutions of sea wind are needed to make a more useful wind resource map of the Korean Peninsula.

  • One of the biggest environmental issues that our world has been facing is climate change. In order to cope with such environmental issues, the world is putting a great deal of effort into energy conservation. The building sector, in particular, consumes 36% of the energy consumed worldwide and emits considerable amount of greenhouse gases. Therefore, introduction of renewable energies in the building sector is highly recommended. Renewable energy sources that can be utilized in the building sector include sunlight, solar heat, geothermal heat, fuel cells and wind power. The wind power generation system which converts wind energy into electrical energy has advantages in that wind is an unlimited and pollution-free resource. It is suitable to be connected to existing buildings because many years of operational experience and the enhanced stability of the system have made it possible to downsize the electrical generator. In case of existing buildings, it is necessary to consider the live loads of the buildings to connect the wind power generation system. This paper, through the connection of the wind power generation with existing buildings, promotes reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and energy independence by reducing energy consumption in the building sector. In order to connect the wind power generation system with an exciting building, the live load of the building and the area of the rooftop should be considered. The installable model is selected by comparing the live load of the building and the load of the wind power generation system. The maximum number of the wind turbines that can be installed is obtained by considering the separation distance between the wind turbines within the area of the rooftop. Installations are divided into single installations and multiple installations of two different types of wind turbines. After determining the maximum installable number, the optimal model that can achieve the maximum annual power generation will be selected by comparing the respective total annual amount of the power generation of different models.

  • This study aims to present the applicability of wind turbine generator system to urban buildings for the utilization of clean renewable energy. The results are as follows; According to the wind resource analysis, it has been found that small sized wind power system can be viable for buildings application due to the amplification of wind velocity around buildings or building clusters, in spite of low mean velocity of 2-3m/s in Seoul and Kyunggi urban areas. But planners must perform micrositing analysis around building so that wind turbine can be located at high velocity zones. The system must be designed to avoid obstacles preventing prevailing wind in buildings. It should be recognized that wind speeds are changing depending on the height and length from buildings. The wind power system can be used as a symbol of landmark which shows a sustainable architecture from the scenary Itself A case study for apartment building in urban showed that wind power systems can be applicable in two kinds of place, rooftops and ground levels. Especially, the wind power systems must be carefully positioned so that wind resources do not decrease when it is installed at ground levels. and according to life cycle cost analysis, adaption of new small win4 power systems to buildings were proved to produce a profit if it is considered the expense of environment improvement and the wind speed increasing according to rise of building height. This research will ultimately achieve green architecture that preserves nature and at the same time provides pleasant environment to humans, and will play a great role in establishing the environment-preserving sustainable architecture of the 21th century.

  • This paper presents an application of Harmony Search (HM) meta-heuristic optimization algorithm for optimal operation of microgrid system. The microgrid system considered in this paper consists of a wind turbine, a diesel generator, and a fuel cell. An one day load profile which divided 20 minute data and wind resource for wind turbine generator were used for the study. In optimization, the HS algorithm is used for solving the problem of microgrid system operation which a various generation resources are available to meet the customer load demand with minimum operating cost. The application of HS algorithm to optimal operation of microgrid proves its effectiveness to determine optimally the generating resources without any differences of load mismatch and having its nature of fast convergency time as compared to other optimization method.

  • The wind turbine system, one of the distributed resource, has a large effect on the distribution system. because windfarm is located in the end part of the distribution system, the hilly section and the shore, which is easy to obtain the wind energy, it is difficult to manage the voltage and the power quality. Therefore this paper deals with the measurement and assessment of power quality characteristic of wind turbines with IEC 61400-21.
