Abstract

Wind energy is widely recognized as one of the cheapest forms of clean and renewable energy. In fact, in several countries, wind energy has achieved cost parity with fossil fuel-based sources of electricity generation for new electricity generation plants. Offshore wind energy development promises to be a significant domestic renewable energy source for the target of korea government 3020 plan. A pivotal activity during the development phase of a wind project is wind resource assessment. Several approaches can be categorized as three basic scales or stages of wind resource assessment: preliminary area identification, area wind resource evaluation, and micrositing. This study is to estimate the wind power capacity of chonnam province offshore area using three basic stages based on the six meteorological mast data. WindPRO was used, one of a well-known wind energy prediction programs and based on more than 25 years of experiences in development of software tools for wind energy project development. The design results of offshore wind power generation capacity is calculated as total 2.52GW with six wind farms in chonnam offshore area.

풍력에너지는 청정 및 재생에너지의 가장 저렴한 모형중의 하나로 널리 알려져 있다. 실제로 몇몇 국가에서는 풍력에너지가 새롭게 건설되는 발전소들 중에서 화석연료 발전단가와 동등한 수준으로 만들어 오고 있다. 해상풍력 에너지 개발은 한국정부의 3020계획 목표달성을 위한 중요한 국내 에너지자원일 것으로 보인다. 풍력프로젝트의 개발단계 중에서 중심이 되는 항목은 풍력자원 평가이다. 풍력자원평가의 기본적인 3가지 등급 또는 단계는 예비부지확정, 부지 풍력자원 평가, 마이크로사이팅 등으로 나누어 분류할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 6개소 해상기상탑 자료를 기반으로 3단계를 적용하여 전남 해상지역의 풍력발전 용량을 추정하는 것이다. 풍력프로젝트 개발을 위하여 소프트웨어 도구로 25년 이상 실적이 있고 풍력에너지 프로젝트 개발프로그램으로 잘 알려진 WindPRO를 사용하였다. 전남지역 해상풍력발전용량의 설계결과는 6개 풍력단지에서 총 2.52GW로 계산되었다.
