Abstract
The present operation and future expansion feasibility of renewable energy at 30 business locations in 12 EBFs in Busan at South Korea were investigated. Currently, 197â¯GWh/yr of electric power is produced from renewable energies at the EBFs. The largest energy source, except waste heat, is biogas (154â¯GWh/yr), followed by solar photovoltaic (5.56â¯KWh/yr) at 11 business locations. A field survey revealed potential production by PV, wind power, and small hydropower of 8.2, 6.2 and 0.751â¯GWh/yr with associated GHG mitigation of 3620, 2737, and 332 tCO2/yr, respectively, at 26 business locations. A cost-benefit analysis demonstrates that the use of governmental support or private investment could be the most efficient way to introduce renewable energies to EBFs.
