Wolsong Nuclear Power Headquarters Successfully Concludes Energy Conservation Campaign with Local Community

Successful Street Campaign for Energy Conservation Held on Gampo Market Day

On April 8, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power's Wolsong Nuclear Power Headquarters (Director: Kwon Wontak) successfully carried out the "Energy Conservation Campaign for Overcoming the Resource Security Crisis" at the Gampo Public Market in Gampo-eup, Gyeongju, coinciding with the local market day.

The campaign drew significant participation and interest from citizens and merchants, as it was held on a busy market day, becoming an opportunity to naturally spread the message of energy conservation in daily life.

Employees of the Wolsong Nuclear Power Headquarters, along with local organizations such as the Gampo-eup Development Council, Gampo-eup Residents’ Autonomy Committee, and the Gampo Public Market Merchants’ Association, participated in the event, walking through the market area and appealing to the public to join in energy-saving efforts.

In particular, they informed citizens about practical energy-saving guidelines, distributed promotional leaflets, and provided eco-friendly shopping bags to encourage reducing the use of disposable plastic bags, which received an enthusiastic response.

One citizen attending the event said, "Receiving a shopping bag made me realize I should use it instead of plastic bags from now on," adding, "Having someone explain it directly makes the importance of energy conservation feel much more real."

This campaign focused on promoting practical daily energy-saving measures, including: participating in the odd-even vehicle restriction program, using public transportation, maintaining proper indoor temperatures, turning off unnecessary lights, and using home appliances efficiently in the evening.

Kwon Wontak, Director of Wolsong Nuclear Power Headquarters, stated, "By communicating directly with so many local residents on market day, we were able to raise awareness about the importance of energy conservation," adding, "We will continue to expand a culture of practical energy saving through various activities in cooperation with the local community."
