Energy Corporation Launches 'Distributed Energy Activation Task Force'... Establishes Institutional Implementation Plan

The Korea Energy Agency held the launch ceremony of the 'Distributed Energy Activation Task Force' at its headquarters in Ulsan on the 4th.

The ceremony was attended by Lee Sang-hoon, Chairman of the Korea Energy Agency, Park Sang-hee, Director of the New Industry Distributed Energy Division at the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, and Jung Ho-dong, Director of the Ulsan City Economic Industry Office. The event included a report on the task force operation plan by Task Force Leader Kim Hyung-jung and a plaque unveiling ceremony.

The task force was established to prepare subordinate laws such as enforcement ordinances and enforcement rules, as well as implementation plans within the law, in accordance with the 'Special Act on the Activation of Distributed Energy' scheduled to be enforced in June next year.

Through the task force, the Energy Agency plans to prepare for the enforcement of the special act and broadly collect opinions from local governments, the distributed energy industry, and high energy-consuming users through public hearings and other means.

Lee Sang-hoon, Chairman of the Energy Agency, said, "The enactment of the Special Act on the Activation of Distributed Energy lays the foundation for transforming Korea's energy supply system into a distributed energy system that produces and consumes energy near the demand site." He added, "We will do our best to steadily prepare for the enforcement of the special act through the task force."
