The completion ceremony of Smart Energy Campus was held on April 23 at the Natural Sciences Campus. 

Vice-President Sungjin SONG, DirectorJonghwan LEE (Korea Electric Power Corporation, hereafter KEPCO), President Sunghwan BAE (KEPCO-ES) and many other key figures have joined the ceremony to commemorate the successful completion of SKKU Smart Energy Campus, which will become the foundation for the expansion of K-SEM based energy efficient campus project.

*K-SEM (KEPCO Smart Energy Management): Energy management technology that increases efficiency while decreasing cost by finding a perfect energy mix after analysis/control of electricity, gas and heat usage of clients

Smart Energy Campus project is a coexistence business model between SKKU and KEPCO, which aims to decrease/save the cost of energy and use it in making investments. KEPCO-ES will make an up-front investment to construct energy efficient facility and ESS (Energy Storage System).

SKKU has established an agreement on “Smart Energy Campus” project with KEPCO and KEPCO-ES on Sept. 19, 2018. Since then, it has promoted business on installing high-efficient LED light and ESS to construct the K-SEM. With this project it is estimated that SKKU will save up to 1 Bil. KRW each year in energy and realize a perfect environment for energy efficiency.

Vice-President Sungjin SONG said, “The completion of SKKU Smart Energy Campus serves as a great momentum for the national project on new energy industry. SKKU will continue to promote energy efficiency project to become a standard model of using efficient energy.”
