해상풍력 발전사업의 원만한 이해관계자 협의를 위한 절차적 개선방향– 어업손실보상 근거와 기준을 중심으로

In order to achieve carbon neutrality goal by 2050, the expansion of renewable energy is essential. In particular, offshore wind power has a large installation potential in terms of scale. However, offshore wind power is scarcely distributed in Korea, because various offshore wind farms in Korea are experiencing local conflicts due to opposition from residents and fishermen. Conflicts between developers and local fishermen often arise because the laws and procedures related to the compensation of stakeholders are unclear during the consultation process. Stakeholder consultations in offshore wind power projects can be classified into compensation, support, and benefit-sharing, and this study specifically reviewed the issue of compensation for fishing losses. In terms of legal and procedural aspects, this study examines related laws such as the 「Electricity Business Act」, 「Power Development Promotion Act」, 「Act on Acquisition of and Compensation for Land, Etc. for Public Works Projects」 and 「Fisheries Act」, and examines the defect of the legal basis for negotiating compensation for fisheries and the lack of compensation evaluation standards in offshore wind power development projects. In addition, by comparing and analyzing domestic and foreign related laws such as the Danish and Taiwanese Fisheries Act, the UK Offshore Wind Power Consultation Guideline, and the domestic 「Urban Development Act」, improvement directions for the current problems were derived. In conclusion, this study proposes to supplement the legal basis for consultation on compensation for fisheries in the 「Special Act on the Promotion of Wind Power Generation」, and to prepare a standard/guideline for compensation and fishery impact investigation agreed upon by all stakeholders including fishermen, developers, and the government.
