Nuclear Research Institute-Electric Research Institute, Presentation on 'Promising Commercialization Technologies' such as Secondary Batteries and Robots

A venue will be set up where promising commercialization technologies in fields such as secondary batteries and robots can be seen all in one place.

The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) and the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) announced on the 22nd that they will hold the "2024 KAERI-KERI Joint Briefing on Promising Commercialization Technologies" at the Changwon Convention Center (CECO) on the 30th of this month.

The briefing will introduce technologies in 12 national strategic technology fields, including electric vehicles, secondary batteries, robots, and nuclear technology. These technologies have high commercialization potential and the advantage of being quickly applicable to industrial sites.

Above all, unlike previous individual briefings held by each institution, this briefing is jointly hosted by the top domestic specialized research institutes in the nuclear and electrical fields, and is expected to create significant synergy effects.

A total of 20 technologies will be showcased at the briefing, with one-on-one face-to-face consultations for technology transfer and commercialization conducted on-site.

Among them, six key technologies will be introduced directly by researchers from both institutes. The six technologies to be presented on-site are ▲wearable robots in the form of clothing for muscle assistance ▲robots capable of performing dangerous tasks on behalf of humans ▲three-dimensional electrode structures for secondary batteries ▲eco-friendly battery cathode material recycling technology using chlorine gas ▲stretchable tessellation structured Si solar cells and light-tracking solar cells ▲miniaturizable high-sensitivity graphene hydrogen gas sensor technology.

Technology financial support consultations will also be conducted during the briefing. The cooperating institution, Korea Technology Finance Corporation, plans to introduce technology commercialization support programs on-site and handle one-on-one consultations on technology transfer and commercialization cooperation, as well as financial support consultations necessary for small and medium-sized enterprises' technology commercialization activities.

Applications for participation and exhibited technologies can be checked on the briefing’s official website. For further details, inquiries can be made through KAERI’s Technology Commercialization Team or KERI’s Technology Commercialization Office.

Joo Han-gyu, President of KAERI, said, “KAERI will spare no effort to support enhancing the competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises with excellent patented technologies,” and added, “We hope that the growth of related industries will strengthen national competitiveness.”

Kim Nam-gyun, President of KERI, said, “I hope the briefing will serve as an opportunity to solve the difficulties and challenges faced by companies and further contribute to the creation of new businesses and growth of enterprises.”
