Ⅰ. Background and Purpose of Research
1. Introduction
o Through the Paris Agreement (2015), IPCC 1.5℃ Report (2018), and UN Climate Summit (2019), countries around the world set the goal of achieving Net Zero.
ㅇ The Korean government presented the direction and plan for achieving Net Zero through the 2050 long-term low-carbon development strategy. It also presented goals and strategies by establishing the 2050 Net Zero Scenario and the ‘Strategy to Promote Technological Innovation for Achieving Net Zero.’
ㅇ The technology database currently established is focusing on technologies for achieving the 2030 reduction target. It is necessary to select core technologies to implement the Net Zero Scenario and build a database of the cost of technologies.
ㅇ In addition, for efficient and effective introduction of technologies, strategies based on cost information and Net Zero implementation paths are needed.
o Research scope and methodology
ㅇ Select key innovative technologies to implement the Net Zero Scenario and build a technology cost database
- 2050 Net Zero Scenario review: identifying core technologies and selecting innovative technologies
- Review of database construction plans focusing on innovative technologies that can be used for Net Zero policy analysis
ㅇ Presenting an effective strategy for technology introduction through cost calculation
- For selected innovative technologies, we estimated the technology cost which consists of capital cost, installation cost, and oper
