[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Jin Air announced on the 22nd that it will participate in the energy-saving campaign in celebration of the 19th Energy Day.


Energy Day, which marks its 19th anniversary this year, has been held annually since 2004, led by the Energy Citizens' Coalition, to emphasize the importance of energy conservation. It was established in response to the record-high electricity consumption on August 22, 2003.


First, Jin Air will conduct in-flight announcements on all domestic flights on the 21st and 22nd, introducing the purpose of Energy Day and ways to participate, encouraging active involvement. Additionally, during the peak electricity consumption hours in summer from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., the office air conditioning temperature will be raised by 2 degrees Celsius. The company will also participate in the "Turn off the lights and turn on the stars" campaign by turning off outdoor lighting for 5 minutes starting at 9 p.m.


Jin Air stated, "We hope this campaign will provide an opportunity to reconsider climate change and the value of energy," adding, "We will continue to do our best to promote the importance of the environment and deliver sustainable values through various campaign activities as part of our ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management practices."



Meanwhile, in May of this year, Jin Air established an ESG committee and a dedicated organization to promote ESG activities aimed at sustainable development, enhancing environmental protection, social responsibility, and transparent ethical management values. The company has also conducted various environmental protection activities with customers, such as environmental cleanup volunteer work to protect the beautiful environment of Jeju Island and the Jin Air X Paul Bassett plogging campaign.
