Sandangong, Carbon Emission Reduction through Installation of Self-Consumption Solar Power Facilities
Annual electricity cost of 200 million KRW, expected carbon emission reduction of 400 tons
The Korea Industrial Complex Corporation (Chairman Lee Sang-hoon) announced on the 29th that, in addition to the existing renewable energy facilities, it will install self-consumption solar power generation facilities on the rooftops and parking lots of its headquarters building and two regional headquarters (Gwangju, Jeonbuk).
The additional solar power generation facilities to be installed have a total capacity of 580 kW and produce 850 MWh of electricity annually. This is enough to supply electricity for about 230 households of four people for one year.
