LCCA 및 LCA 분석을 이용한 오피스 빌딩에 지능형 대기전력 제어시스템 도입의 타당성 분석에 관한 연구

Recently, in an attempt to overcome the defects of quiescent power shutdown system, smart quiescent power control system has been developed. However, due to its higher investment costs, feasibility evaluation must be conducted. While LCCA (Life Cycle Cost Analysis) model is useful to estimate net savings of alternatives that differ with respect to initial costs and operating costs, the environmental burdens are not considered. On the contrary, LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) model is suitable to assess environmental impacts associated with the stages of a product’s life but it does not consider costs. In this study, a comprehensive analysis on the economic and environmental impacts of smart quiescent power control system is conducted by using LCCA and LCA model. In addition, sensitivity analysis is carried out to quantify accuracy of estimates.
