Abstract

Large-scale power plants are located near the shore to use seawater as coolant in order to deal with waste heat produced during electricity generation. The used seawater is called thermal discharge. The thermal discharge causes harmful effect on marine ecosystem, and thus it incurs civil complaints filed by fishing villages. Meanwhile, integrated energy business(IEB)-based combined heat and power plant(CHP) is free from emission of thermal discharge because it generates electricity and supplies heating by the power plant's waste heat. This study attempts to measure the benefits of reducing thermal discharge from IEB-based CHP. We took the benefits as additional willingness to pay(WTP) of electric charges per 1kWh. By applied contingent valuation method, the WTP estimate was computed to be 48.62 KRW per 1kWh.
