[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Hwasun County, Jeollanam-do (Governor Gu Chung-gon) announced on the 3rd that it paid a total of 15 million KRW in carbon point incentives to 790 households that reduced their energy consumption during the second half of last year.

Households wishing to join the carbon point system can register on the carbon point system website or apply in writing or by fax to the Environmental Division of the county office.



A county official said, “We hope all residents actively participate in the carbon point system, which saves electricity, water, and gas bills while protecting the environment.”
