Korea & the World (8)Nuclear Power for Alternate Energy 2011. 5. 3 bkkim9@gmail.com 김 병 구
This Week in Brief • 한.중.일,FTA 영토전쟁치열 • 주력 수출상품 유사: 가전, 자동차, 선박, 철강등 • 기존 한: 8건 45개국, 일: 22개국, 중: 19개국 • 한.EU, 한.미 FTA 비준 지연 • 원전 방사선 위험도 국민인식 과잉반응 • 자연, 의료 방사능 보다 미소 • 사고 시 사망확률 자동차의 1/100, 화재 1/40 • 수명단축 효과: 흡연, 과체중 보다 미소
Energy Alternatives • PositiveNegative Wind Carbon free, fuelLow density, unsteady Tide Carbon free, fuel Site, economy Solar Carbon free, fuel Low density, economy NuclearCarbon free, economy Radwaste,proliferation Mega scale
Understanding Nuclear • Double faces of the atom • Military: Hiroshima/Nagasaki, NK • Peaceful: nuclear power, medical, agriculture, etc. • Electricity from nuclear power plants • Single largest peaceful application • 440 NPPs in operation worldwide today • Only 30 countries with high-tech infrastructure • Delivering ~ 17% of world’s electricity
Brief History • 1895 X-ray invention by Roentgen • 1932 Einstein, Theory of RelativityE=mC*2 • 1942 First nuclear fission by FermiCP-1 • 1945 Hiroshima/Nagasaki atomic bombs • 1953 Eisenhawer, Atoms for Peace • 1956 First NPPCalder Hall (UK) • 1957 International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) created
Brief History(2) • 1958 Korea, first Atomic Energy Law • 1970 Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty • 1978 Korea, first NPP Kori-1 operation • 1980 Korea, NPP technical self-reliance • 1986 Chernobyl accident (USSR) • 2005 IAEA Nobel Peace Prize • 2009 Korean NPP export to UAE
What is Nuclear Power? • Turbine/generator by heat from uranium • Burn uranium fuel instead of fossil fuel • Energy density 1,000,000 times higher than fossil • Fuel cost only 20% of total generation cost • Nuclear fuel fabrication: high-tech, precision • Reactor manufacture: high pressure/temp • Safety philosophy: multiple redundancy • Waste disposal: small volume, toxic, long-term storage
Nuclear Fuel Cycle? • Uranium ore refined– yellow cake • Uranium conversion, enrichment– 2% ~ 4% low enriched uranium (LEU) • Nuclear fuel burns in reactor (~ 3 years) • Spent nuclear fuel contains plutonium • Radwaste treatment and disposal • Named after the new solar stars Uranus (천왕성), Pluto(명왕성)
The Nuclear Fuel Cycle - Closed Conversion Mining Enrichment Uranium Fuel fabrication Plutonium Waste Reprocessing Nuclear Power Plant
Nuclear Power World Status • 30 countries operate 439NPPs (2010) • 1. USA 104units(20%) • 2. FRA 58 units(75%) • 3. JPN 54 units(29%) • 4. RUS 32units(18%) • 5. ROK 20units(35%) Nuclear electricity 14% of world total • New NPP constructions mainly in Asia • INA(24), RUS(12), CPR(63), ROK(11)
Nuclear Power World Prospects • Nuclear renaissance in 40 years • Proven record of economy and safety • Climate change, low carbon green growth • Energy security from oil, natural gas • Double the NPP capacity by 2030 • Existing: life extension, new NPPs • New comers: UAE Gulf Countries, TUR, BYE, KAZ, VIE, etc.
Nuclear Power Status in Korea • 21 units in operation, 7 units under construction • Kori, Wolsung, Ulchin, Yonggwang • Localization rate85% in design, manufacturing, const. • Long term supply contract for uranium fuel • Base load production, nuclear share35% • Midnight electricity rate • Radwaste disposal site(Gyeongju) • National infrastructure well developed • High quality, low cost electricity(2% of GDP) • Essential element of the high-tech economy

Great Nuclear Dilemma • Risk of nuclear power overwhelming • Anti-nuclear sentiment • Nuclear renaissance ??, higher cost • No viable alternate source of energy • Economy, carbon-free, 준국산에너지 - 2011: 21 NPPs, 34% electricity - 2030: 40 NPPs, 59% • Korean PWR technology, proven safety - Emerging export market after UAE
맺는 말 • 일본 원전 사고 • accident anyplace, accident everyplace • 한국형 경수로 기술자립의 의미 • 준국산 에너지, 고부가가치 수출산업 • UAE BNPP 건설로 국제경쟁력 실증 • 先 기술, 後 협력/경쟁 - Nuclear Silk Road • 안전성 강화 국제협력 방안 • 중국 원자력 안전문화 정착 기회 • 한중일 3국 원자력 협력체제 구상 (NGO) • ‘그래도 원자력이다’ - 긍지와반성, 위기는 기회
