On the 7th, East-West Power announced that on the 5th, it signed a 'Local Company Collaboration Large-Scale Onshore Wind Power Project Joint Development Agreement' with Kyungyang Construction and Geumyang Green Power at the East-West Power headquarters located in Jung-gu, Ulsan. According to this agreement, East-West Power will establish nine wind power complexes in Taebaek and Samcheok cities, Gangwon Province.
