“…Projects such as the creation of offshore wind farm, the construction of a wind turbine production and assembly complex, the support hinterland, and the construction of transmission lines are carried out in stages. In particular, 2.3 trillion won ($1.8 billion) (investment by KEPCO and power generation companies) will be invested in constructing the transmission line for infrastructure construction, and 218 billion won ($170 million) (Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries) will be invested in the development of the Mokpo New Port [4,7].…”

“…Offshore wind energy is a representative climate change response technology that is abundant, continuously renewable, distributed over a wide area, and does not emit greenhouse gases during operation [2]. Therefore, offshore wind energy is the center of global energy trends, including South Korea, and is a major energy source for replacing fossil energy as the core of the energy transition policy [3][4][5].…”

With the international trend of promoting eco-friendly renewable energy for carbon neutrality and the Paris Agreement, South Korea is focusing its national energy mix on renewable energy. Especially, offshore wind energy will be expanded a total power capacity of 12 GW by 2030, which is expected to become South Korea’s most important energy source and industrial dynamic force in the future. With the support of the Korean government, many domestic and foreign developers are taking the lead in developing fixed/floating offshore wind energy projects and O&M technology. Through this chapter, we would like to introduce the current status of offshore wind energy in the South Korea, support policies, infrastructure, and issues up to the first quarter of 2022.

“…Therefore, insufficient power is transmitted from other regions through high voltage transmission lines and high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) system. Moreover, the Korean government has announced the "Renewable Energy 3020 Action Plan" to increase the hosting capacity of renewable energies, which includes installing WPPs with a total capacity of 17.7 GW until 2030 [1,2]. Therefore, in this paper, among planned WPPs based on the national energy plan, 20 WPPs given in Table 2 with a total capacity of 11 GW are applied in the current Korean electric power system, as shown in Figure 6.…”

“…Following the global trend of increasing the hosting capacity of the wind power plants (WPPs) to solve environmental and economic issues, the government of Korea is planning to increase the capacity of WPPs to 17.7 GW by 2030 [1,2]. However, various stability problems are being reported due to the uncertainty and variability of renewable energy generation [3].…”

A Study on Frequency Stability and Primary Frequency Response of the Korean Electric Power System Considering the High Penetration of Wind Power

et al. 2022

The high penetration of wind power decreases the system inertia and primary frequency reserve while replacing the conventional synchronous generators (SGs). Therefore, if the system operator does not take appropriate action on the remaining generation units (GUs) operation, high penetration of wind power will aggravate the frequency stability. To solve this problem, wind power plants (WPPs) may provide the inertial response and primary frequency response (PFR) to support the frequency stability. However, due to the variability of renewable energy, WPPs may not provide adequate frequency response whenever it is required. This paper proposes an algorithm to determine the operation of GUs to provide appropriate PFR for a power system with high penetration of wind power. Through the proposed algorithm, it calculates the required PFR to restore the decreased frequency stability caused by the high penetration of wind power. Then, while considering the available PFR from WPPs, it redetermines the droop coefficient of SGs governor to provide the sufficient PFR to recover the frequency stability. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified on the practical Korean electric power system.

This research aims to investigate the performance solar water collector by varing five parameters; which are mass flowrate, inclination angle, total solar radiation, pipe size, and number of glass covers. The test rig was established to collect the data for the whole months of September and October and use it as a focal point for analysis of the solar water heating system's performance. The dynamic behavior simulated and optimizated with MATLAB software for the practical data to investigate the performance of the flat plate solar collector. The novelity in this study is the first time the authors use the whole practical data instead of using an average to approximate the theoretical dynamic investigation of the flat plate solar collector. The achievements are as follows: The increase in collector efficiency was from 62.17% to 71.26% when the collector pipe spacing was reduced from 186 mm to 86 mm; the increase in efficiency was approximately 2% as the collector pipeline diameter grew from 1 mm to 50 mm; the optimum efficiency was achieved with triple glazing and was about 0.83%; the increase in mass flowrate from; 1 to 5 liters per minute, would improve the efficiency of the system from 64% to 83%. Moreover, the best tilt angle for the flat plate solar collector was 30°.Also, heat loss coefficient rises by around 50% when wind speed is increased from 1 m/s to 5 m/s. Thus, the use of dynamic investigation with actual data will assist the researcher in improving the performance of the solar water flat plate collector.
