The 'e-Anshim House' is a 2 billion KRW energy efficiency improvement project that supports the installation of high-efficiency equipment, such as insulation reinforcement, replacement of windows and boilers, and installation of LED lighting, after conducting energy performance assessments for vulnerable households living near the power plant.

In 2023, the three major energy welfare organizations?Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, Korea Energy Foundation, and Korea Institute of Energy Technology Evaluation and Planning?signed a business agreement to implement this project. So far, the project has been carried out in 13 regions nationwide, benefiting a total of 298 households and 14 welfare facilities. Among these, Hanul Nuclear Power Headquarters supported 36 vulnerable households and Indeok Sarang Village, a residential welfare facility for people with disabilities, within its jurisdiction.

Energy efficiency assessments of the beneficiary households showed that energy costs were reduced by approximately 36% compared to previous levels. This reduction is equivalent to the annual carbon reduction effect of planting 249 trees per household.

Lee Seyong, Head of Hanul Headquarters, stated, "I am glad that we have been able to help vulnerable groups living near the power plant use electricity without worrying about utility bills, even if only a little. We will continue to explore ways to extend these benefits to more households."
