Abstract

Photovoltaic power generation systems make up a large part of the low carbon energy trend. The purpose of this study is to utilize PVsyst, a commercial forecasting program, to forecast research on the design stages of photovoltaic power generation for wider applications of this system in railroads and to consider prospective issues for photovoltaic power plants that are currently being operated. Given this, we will compare the forecast value of generated photovoltaic power, derived from foreign weather forecast information provided by NASA, along with information from Meteonorm, and the forecast values derived from the KMA weather information. By comparing these values with amounts actually generated by KPX, this research aims to secure propriety rights for wider application of photovoltaic power generation systems in railroads, and to contribute to low carbon energy for the new climate of the future.

본 논문의 연구 목적은 저탄소 에너지화에 큰 비중을 차지하고 있는 태양광 발전 시스템의 철도분야 적용확대를 위한 설계 단계에서의 태양광 발전량 예측 연구로 실제 운영하고 있는 지평 태양광발전소를 대상으로 태양광 발전량 상용 예측 프로그램인 PVsyst를 활용하여 프로그램 기본 제공 NASA와 Meteonorm의 해외 기상정보를 이용한 연간 태양광 발전량 예측값과 기상청(KMA) 기상정보를 이용한 발전량 예측값을 비교하고, 한국전력거래소(KPX) 실제 발전량과의 비교 분석을 통해 태양광발전소 구축비의 적정성을 확보하여 철도분야의 태양광 발전 시스템 확대적용과 나아가 신기후 체제에 대응한 저탄소 에너지화에 기여하고자 한다.
