Dear Colleagues,

Fossil fuel, the driving force behind the industrial development of the 20th century is revealing the limitations of its reserves. It has also been spotted as the culprit in environmental issues that result from emissions of pollutants and the cause of global warming from emissions of carbon dioxide. The international society is making a number of continuous efforts with the industrialized countries in the lead to develop green energy and to control the emission of carbon dioxide by building a new energy supply system including the Smart Grid.

The Korean economic structure revolves around import of raw materials as it lacks natural resources and export of technology- and capital-intensive industries such as semiconductors, automobiles, electronics, chemicals, steel products, and ships. It is becoming the model for the many developing countries thanks to its rapid economic growth. However, such industries consume much energy, and with the Korean reality of importing most of its energy source overseas, it leaves the Korean economic growth to be restricted by international environmental regulations. Under such conditions, the Korean government is carrying out the Green Growth policy, a balanced growth model pursuing harmony between economic development and environmental preservation and it is making efforts to realize Smart Grid by bringing out its strengths in IT.This special issue introduces an economic growth model based on green energy and Smart Grid, a model to be referenced not only by developing countries, where economic development is top priority, but industrialized countries as well
