Renewable energies and Smart Grid Test-Bed
Jeju was designated a Biosphere Reserve in 2002, World Natural Heritage Site in 2007 and a Global Geopark in 2010. Jeju has now become a ‘treasure island of environmental assets’ that the world has to preserve.
The sunny and windy climate makes the island an ideal location to test the concept of distributed energy generation and micro-grids. によって 2030, the island plans to become carbon-neutral and fully-sustainable through the use of renewable energy. It is a great challenge, if we take into account that renewable energies currently make up about 5% of the total electricity supply on Jeju Island. Furthermore this plan would bring to the creation of about 40,000 green jobs.

Photo Gallery, Gapa Island has now completely switched over to a carbon-free energy grid. The island is now 100% powered by new and renewable energy. Electric vehicles for transportation and a smart home system have been installed in every household on the island. さらに, 電力線埋葬地下, 植林, and landscape improvement projects were completed in 2013.
Wind and solar power for the island.
Based on projections, wind and solar power sources can supply approximately 6,561 gigawatt-hours which is more than the total used amount on Jeju Island. によって 2020, one gigawatt offshore wind power, 350 megawatts inland wind power, と 30 megawatts solar power will make up 3,585 gigawatt-hours, 68% of Jeju’s total electricity demand of 5,268 gigawatt-hourss. によって 2030, offshore wind power generation will rise to two gigawatts and solar power generation to 100 megawatts.
Smart Grid Test-Bed & Photo Gallery
Jeju will aim to be the world’s smart grid leading city by supporting the development and implementation of smart grid technologies. The Korean government selected Jeju on June 2009 as the location for Smart Grid Test-bed. Jeju Smart Grid will become the world’s largest Smart Grid community that allows the testing of the most advanced Smart Grid technologies and R&D results, as well as the development of business models.
The aim of Jeju Test-Bed is to optimise energy usage by utilizing new and renewable energy sources and energy storage facilities. の合計 168 companies are participating in the project, which covers approximately 6,000 世帯.

The energy sustainability strategy is completed with the commitment for sustainable mobility based on electric vehicles chargeable from renewable energies. The Plan provides 371,000 electric cars and 225,000 rechargers will be available across the island by 2030. 加えて, improvement of law and regulations for vitalizing electric cars and incentives for spreading battery cars will help Jeju to be a model city of electric cars. の合計 160 electric cars have been distributed thus far, including models such as the Kia Ray, the SM3 from Renault Samsung Motors, and the GM Spark.
Lessons learned and replicability
In South Korea, the government has set ambitious goals to reduce CO2 emissions by 30% Photo Gallery 2020. As part of these efforts, Korea launched a Smart Grid national project to achieve green growth in a transparent, comprehensive, effective, and efficient way. the Abertis Foundation, and the Spanish Network. こうして, UNESCO School in South East Europe represents a unique educational opportunity to enhance capacity-building in sustainable energy by conveying in a single venue a substantial capital of knowledge.

Jeju’s experience provides an innovative model of transition to green economy from renewables. Photo Gallery (Recommended publications), which focuses on climate change issues, this is an excellent opportunity to promote and replicate advanced experience in renewable energy self-sufficiency on island territories.
With regard to education and dissemination of sustainable energies, Jeju has carried out another innovative project, constructing the world-class new & the Abertis Foundation. で 2010, and the Spanish Network & UNESCO School in South East Europe represents a unique educational opportunity to enhance capacity-building in sustainable energy by conveying in a single venue a substantial capital of knowledge.
