The enforcement of the Kyoto Protocol to reduce greenhouse gas is definitely a challenge we cannot avoid. Korea ranks 10th in the world and 1st among OECD countries in terms of the volume of greenhouse gas emission and is expected to join Annex I countries which have to reduce emission after 2012. For the sustainable development, we shouldn't depend upon fossil fuel energy longer. This study will provide preliminary data to developing renewable energy systems for urban generation. There are investigated a recent case study of CONCERTO projects co-funded by the European Commission and surveyed the foreign cases applied to key technologies such as geothermal energy, hydrogen fuel cell and bioenergy among the renewable-energies in urban built environment. And also there is analyzed application of renewable energy systems as a urban energy source. |
