Abstract

Recent increase of greenhouse gas has been seriousin recent years. The status and problems of coal-fired powerplants in Korea and discussions about reducing greenhousegases emitted from coal-fired thermal power plants wereinvestigated. The policy of power plants that would replacecoal-fired thermal power plants and reduce greenhouse gaseswere studied. The current status of CCS and the methods aboutour environmental policy to solve global warming problems inKorea were suggested.
