[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Jinju City in Gyeongnam announced on the 13th that Jinju Sangpyeong General Industrial Complex has been selected for the Ministry of Environment's 'Low-Carbon Green Industrial Complex Development Project' contest, securing a project budget of 8 billion KRW over three years from this year to 2024, including national and provincial funds and grants.


The 'Low-Carbon Green Industrial Complex Development Project' aims to improve water quality by installing non-point source reduction facilities and applying low-impact development (LID) road pavement in aging industrial complexes with low water circulation rates. It also installs vegetated retention ponds and rain gardens to reduce carbon emissions from the industrial complex, actively responding to climate change.


With this contest selection, the city plans to transform the aging industrial complex into a low-carbon green industrial complex by ▲ improving road side ditches and installing vegetated planting pots within the complex ▲ installing underground storage tanks and vegetated retention ponds in parking lots and park sites secured through industrial complex regeneration projects ▲ applying permeable road pavement in frequently flooded areas, and installing rain gardens and rainwater cisterns for tenant companies through industrial cooperation and linkage projects.



Mayor Jo Gyu-il said, “With Sangpyeong General Industrial Complex confirmed as the target for the Ministry of Environment's low-carbon green industrial complex project, it provides an opportunity to shed the image of a poor aging industrial complex in connection with regeneration projects,” and added, “We will do our best to restore water circulation and create an eco-friendly industrial complex.”
