Jeong Cheolwon, the mayor of Damyang County in Jeonnam, participated in the "Relay Challenge" on the 27th, expressing his support for attracting the artificial sun (nuclear fusion) research facility-an initiative for future clean energy-to Jeonnam.


The purpose of this challenge is to build regional consensus for bringing the "Core Nuclear Fusion Technology Development and Advanced Infrastructure Construction Project" site to Naju City.


The artificial sun is a technology that produces clean electricity by using hydrogen, mimicking the principle by which the sun generates energy. It is drawing attention as a key to achieving carbon neutrality and as a core of the future power industry.



Mayor Jeong stated, "I hope that the artificial sun research facility will be established in Naju so that Jeonnam can grow as a center of the energy industry," adding, "Damyang County will also work together to advance clean energy technologies."
