Abstract

This study assessed the photovoltaic (PV) potential according to administrative districts and companies when PV systems were installed at gas stations in Gangwon-do. By interpolating annual global horizontal irradiation (GHI) of Gangwon-do, the annual GHI at each gas or LPG filling station was acquired. The area was calculated from the geospatial information of the gas station. To calculate the area available for installing PV modules at gas stations, three scenarios were assumed: 10% (canopy roof), 15% (canopy and building roof), and 25% (canopy, building roof, and idle space). The number of PV modules for each scenario was calculated, and the PVWatts model was applied to evaluate the PV potentials. Among the 18 administrative districts in Gangwon-do, Wonju City exhibited the highest PV potential, and SK* company had the highest value. The results of this study are expected to provide useful data for planning low-carbon gas stations in Gangwon-do.

본 연구에서는 강원도 내 주유소 및 가스 충전소 공간에 태양광발전시스템을 도입할 경우 기대할 수 있는 발전 잠재량을 행정구역과 운영 업체별로 나누어 평가하였다. 강원도 전천일사량 포인트 자료의 보간을 통해 각 주유소와 충전소가 위치한 지점의 연간 전천일사량을 취득하였고, 주유소와 충전소의 공간정보로부터 면적을 계산하였다. 주유소 및 충전소의 태양광 모듈을 설치할 공간의 면적을 계산하기 위해 전체 영역의 10%(캐노피 상단), 15%(캐노피 및 건물 옥상), 25%(캐노피, 건물 옥상, 주차장 및 공터)의 3가지 시나리오를 가정하였다. 시나리오 별 가용면적으로부터 설치 가능한 태양광 모듈의 개수를 산정하였고, 태양광발전 잠재량을 평가하기 위해 PVWatts 모델을 적용하였다. 강원도 18개의 행정구역 중에는 원주시가, 업체는 SK*사가 가장 높은 태양광발전 잠재량을 보였다. 본 연구결과는 강원도의 저탄소 주유소 계획 수립을 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
