에너지의 기본 원리

이번 주 모듈의 목표는 신재생 에너지를 이해하기 위해 필요한 관련 어휘, 원리, 도구입니다. 우선 ‘에너지’를 정의합니다. 에너지는 무엇일까요? 어디에서 왔을까요? 어떻게 측정할까요? 어떤 규칙을 갖고 있을까요? 그리고 우리는 관심을 전기로 돌려 비슷한 질문을 던집니다. 전기란 무엇일까요? 어떻게 측정할까요? 재생 자원을 전기 생산에 어떻게 이용할까요? 이 모듈을 마치면 신재생 에너지 기술의 가능성과 과제를 이해하는 데 필요한 기본 개념의 확고한 기초를 갖추게 됩니다.

풍력 에너지

이번 주차에는 현재 가장 빠르게 성장 중인 신재생 에너지의 세계적 원천인 풍력 에너지를 살펴봅니다. 먼저 바람의 생성 원리를 알아봅니다. 바람의 주요 특징도 살펴보죠. 바람이 얼마나 많은 에너지를 생성하는지도 알아봅니다.그리고 풍력 터빈이 바람에서 에너지를 추출하는 방법과 풍력 터빈의 구성 요소, 성능 및 경제성을 자세히 설명합니다. 그 과정에서 빠르게 발전하는 해상 풍력 기술과 사용에 특히 주의를 기울입니다.

태양 에너지

태양 복사는 지구 신재생 에너지의 가장 풍부한 에너지원입니다. 그 풍부함을 감안하여 인간이 사용할 수 있도록 어떻게 변형할 수 있을까요? 이 모듈에서 햇빛을 전기로 바꾸는 몇 가지 방법을 살펴봅니다.먼저 태양 복사의 특성과 햇빛이 인간에게 유용한 여러 가지 방식을 설명합니다. 그리고 태양광 발전(PV) 기술과 풍부한 전기 생산을 위해 어떻게 사용되는지 알아봅니다. 태양광 발전 프로젝트의 적용, 계획, 경제적 성과에 대한 검토로 마무리합니다.

기타 신재생 에너지 기술

풍력과 태양열이 세계적으로 가장 빠르게 성장 중인 신재생 에너지 기술이지만, 수력 발전은 여전히 가장 큰 규모이며 다른 기술도 오랜 역사를 가지고 있습니다. 이번 마지막 모듈에서는 먼저 수력 발전, 바이오매스 에너지, 집열 태양광, 지열, 해양 에너지 등 6가지 기술에 대해 알아봅니다. 효과적이고 경제적인 에너지 저장은 신재생 에너지의 장기적인 성공을 위해 매우 중요합니다. 양수식 수력 발전, 배터리, 열 저장, 수력 발전 저장소을 포함한 에너지 저장 기술과 몇 가지 새로운 저장 기술을 살펴봅니다. 그리고 신재생 에너지 생성 및 저장 기술의 성공에 대한 예측으로 마무리합니다.
