Renewable Portfolio Standard in Korea
Targeting 10% of electricity from renewables by 2022
2 million tons 5 million tons 10 million tons
2015 2020 2022
South Korea’s consumption of biomass pellets
Burned pellet for residential heating in the past
Co-generation for the future use
The RPS Mandatory Volumes are calculated as follows: RPS = mandatory supplier fossil fuel power generation volume x yearly RPS mandatory ratio

Wood chips
Co-firing
Biomass, a viable means of achieving the RPS target
Co-firing 10% wood chips and pellets 200MWx2 + 30MWx2 full biomass plants
5% co-firing (with pellets) → 500MWx2 5-10% co-firing (with pellets) → 340MWx1
150,000 tons/ year of wood chips and/or pellets 180,000 tons/year of wood chips 400,000 tons/year of pellets 300,000 tons/year of pellets
Thermals used 80 million tons of coal in 2010.
