LEAP application and its prospect (presented by
the DPRK delegation)

• AES Workshop
• May 13-16, 2005, Beijing

2
Introduction on Non-conventional Energy
Development Centre (NCEDC)

• NCEDC was established in 1992,
• Main objectives are
• .promote solar, wind, biomass,hydropower
  and
• biomass energy development in our country
• .technology transfer in these fields
• .organize training for engineers, designers
  and
• staffs,
• .encourage international co-operation in
  these fields
• .set up demonstrations

Strenuous research work conducted for LEAP
application to domestic suit

• Completed interpretation of LEAP program,
  converted notification, help menus and databases
  into Korean version, and created SET UP panel
• LEAP program won high reputation from public
  users as a result of its experimental application
  into some work places of a thermo power plant
• Based on this success, we made up plans on energy
  balance in individual factories, electricity and
  coal mining industries as well as plans to
  maintain energy balance at provincial and
  national level

Research work on LEAP (continued)

• LEAP enabled us to compile data for storage in
  energy database, analyze energy consumption
  pattern and its impact on environment, and work
  out an energy strategy
• Advertised the LEAP program among different
  institutions like Academy of Sciences, Ministries
  concerned, and energy-intensive factories and
  enterprises
• Joint research on LEAP application is underway
  with many researchers and technicians who are
  interested in LEAP program

5
(continued)

• A full set of energy database is required in
  order to conduct in-depth analysis on energy
  supply and demand and to forecast future
  pattern. Such database is necessary for accurate
  interpretation of the LEAP program and
  constructing scenarios
• We created tens of thousand various forms of
  databases in such major institutions as Central
  Scientific Information Agency, Grand Peoples
  Study House, Ministries concerned, factories and
  universities
• These databases are being utilized for the
  modernization of national economy

6

• These databases are regularly supplemented and
  updated with mainly energy-related information
• National energy system was categorized and
  macro-system structure indicating method was
  recently introduced while harmonizing domestic
  energy status with the international energy
  models
• Databases consist of data collecting module,
  data management module and data calculating
  module for easy access to data conversion

7

• Preliminary module practice took place with a
  defined energy system indicating method
• Base data for model practice were collected from
  compiled energy database, while energy price and
  new technology were added from global data
  references
• Such databases consist of energy-related
  scientific and technical documents, actual data
  of production and consumption
• They also include 8 breakdowns, namely energy
  resources, energy intensity, patent, application
  of technology, personal data, elementary
  knowledge on energy, and so forth

8
Database management

• It is highly important in database management to
  create a search program that allows easy
  tracking of data through front-page menu, this
  problem was solved successfully
• Priority will be given further in constructing
  sound database for wider use of the LEAP in
  economic analysis and planning
• More efforts will be directed to make scientific
  and active scenarios based on current economic
  situation

9
Goals objectives

• Build our own capacity to analyze and assess
  energy production and consumption pattern by LEAP
  and draw up short, medium and long term energy
  plan at various levels - individual factories, at
  provincial, sectoral and national level
• Energy intensity will be analyzed based on
  worldwide tendency in coal-mining sector,
  transport, commerce and household sectors
• Apply the LEAP to the full so as to maintain
  balance in energy intensive and vital areas such
  as agriculture, steel, fertilizer and cement

10
Goals Objectives(continued)

• Further accelerate research and application of
  LEAP program which will contribute to efficiency
  improvement and keep balance in supply and
  demand, to ensure energy security at provincial
  and national level
