[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] BerryWards Co., Ltd., a consulting company specializing in greenhouse gas reduction and energy optimization, has decided to actively cooperate with the Gwangju-type AI-Green New Deal by establishing an e-mobility production plant in Gwangju.

On the afternoon of the 24th, Gwangju Metropolitan City signed a "Business Agreement for the Realization of the Gwangju-type AI-Green New Deal" at the City Hall Business Room, attended by Mayor Lee Yong-seop, BerryWards CEO Kim Seong-woo, and Park Jeong-hwan, Head of Regional Industry Promotion at Gwangju Technopark.

The main contents of the agreement include ▲ administrative support and environmental creation when promoting the carbon-neutral e-mobility business ▲ establishment of an e-mobility production plant ▲ active discovery and participation in new projects related to carbon-neutral energy independence ▲ mutual cooperation in matters such as carbon neutrality and greenhouse gas reduction.

BerryWards Co., Ltd. is a consulting company responding to carbon neutrality and climate change by providing lifestyle carbon-neutral business models, greenhouse gas emission management consulting, RE100, and greenhouse gas reduction consulting to reduce greenhouse gases.

In particular, the company plans to establish a production plant in Gwangju as it begins the 'e-mobility business,' a business model for realizing lifestyle-based carbon neutrality that it developed independently, starting in Cambodia.

BerryWards plans to invest about 3.5 billion KRW to establish a new factory in Gwangju, including land acquisition and mass production line construction, and to hire additional personnel to begin full-scale production.

The e-mobility business targets Southeast Asia, where motorcycles and three-wheeled vehicles are widely used, as a strategic market, implementing a business model that utilizes battery charging systems based on renewable energy such as solar power.

In the future, the e-mobility business will continuously expand by linking various business items such as electric two-wheeler rental services at tourist sites, delivery markets, and rental markets, and plans to discover areas for utilizing the carbon-neutral e-mobility business domestically as well.

With the agreement with BerryWards, which is discovering various carbon-neutral business models aimed at reducing greenhouse gases, it is expected that the creation of Gwangju as a 2045 carbon-neutral energy-independent city and RE100 city will gain further momentum.

Kim Seong-woo, CEO of BerryWards, said, "Reducing greenhouse gases is important not only in the corporate sector but also in everyday life," adding, "BerryWards is a company that provides lifestyle-based carbon-neutral business models, and we will actively cooperate so that Gwangju can become an energy-independent city by 2045 through discovering and providing business models."

Mayor Lee Yong-seop said, "I sincerely thank BerryWards for choosing Gwangju as a partner for mutual growth," and added, "Today's business agreement will be a new driving force for our city to realize the AI Green New Deal, and it will also be an opportunity for BerryWards to secure global green competitiveness."

He continued, "Now, unless we create an ecosystem where people and nature coexist, it is impossible to secure the sustainability of a nation or city, and the competitiveness of future cities depends on safety, environment, and ecology," adding, "I hope Gwangju and BerryWards will join forces and wisdom to secure sustainable competitiveness."
