一般注記In comparison to many regions worldwide, international power system interconnections havebeen less developed in Northeast Asia. In particular, Japan and South Korea are notinterconnected with any neighboring countries despite previous works demonstrating thatinterconnecting these two countries should be technically feasible and economically profitable.In Japan, in addition to energy security concerns related to possible geopolitical tensions, thebusiness structure of electric power companies and the fears about the impacts of internationalcompetition on their competitive generation and supply business segments slow down progress.This dissertation has mainly assessed the economic impacts of interconnecting with SouthKorea on Japanese electric power companies’ competitive business segments using innovativeand complementary research methodologies; quantitative analyses both empirical (comparisonof power exchange prices) and theoretical (computer simulation of interconnected powersystems), and qualitative analysis (survey of energy experts). The key finding of thequantitative analyses is that cross-border electricity trade would benefit the Japanese electricpower companies under the current conditions. Moreover, the qualitative analysis has identifiedand explained threats and opportunities related to cross-border electricity trade in the contextof a Japan-South Korea interconnection. From an environmental perspective, future work mayevaluate more thoroughly the impacts of cross-border electricity trade on Japan and SouthKorea’s recently announced 2050 carbon neutrality goals.
