| Abstract |
As interest in climate change increases around the world, the awareness in renewable energy as a replacement for fossil fuels is increasing. In Korea, the 'RE3020' announced the target of achieving over 50GW in renewable energy facilities by 2030. As numerous renewable energies have been installed in Jeju Island, the number of curtailment has been increased every year since 2015. As a way to reduce curtailment, sector coupling in the form of Power-to-X (P2X) along with the energy storage system (ESS) is attracting attention. In this paper, curtailment in 2030 is analyzed based on the renewable energy power generation facility target plan specified in the 10th Basic Plan for Electricity Supply and Demand. The forecast for power generation is derived from the utilization rates of solar and wind power, along with the capacity of the power generation facilities. Afterwards, through estimation of sector coupling demand resources in 2030, the curtailment power is analyzed by applying a method of consuming it as a sector coupling resource. |
