Jung Hoon Song, a PhD student and a team member of Professor Seung Jin Song’s research team, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering SNU, presented on a paper on  "Excellent Simulator for Promoting Renewable Energy Policy based on Building Energy Database" at the 2017 Fall Conference of the Korean New & Renewable Energy Society held in Daejeon from the 6th to the 7th September. He was awarded the paper presentation prize.

In this paper, a simulator which derives the optimal renewable energy system for all the buildings in a specific area was implemented using the recently released building database (energy use by lot number, haet-bit map of Seoul).

It is meaningful that the systematic method for analyzing the policy effect of building renewable energy supply (proportion of supply of new and renewable energy, primary energy saving rate, peak cut, etc.) is suggested.
