6 FAQs about [South Korea international energy solutions]

Does South Korea have a high energy cost?

South Korea’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels has historically led to high electricity costs, as seen during the global energy crisis in 2022. South Korea aims to mitigate these issues by diversifying its energy sources and enhancing energy efficiency across industries.

What is Korea's energy sector?

Korea’s energy sector is characterised by the dominance of fossil fuels, which in 2018 accounted for 85% of total primary energy supply (TPES), a strong dependence on energy imports at 84% of TPES, and the dominance of industrial energy use at 55% of total final consumption, the highest share among IEA countries.

Does South Korea support a cleaner energy mix?

Also, air quality issues have led to strong support for a cleaner energy mix. PM2.5 levels in South Korea are reported to be the highest among OECD countries (OECD, 2016). Government policy supports the transition to a higher renewable energy future, but in an ambiguous manner.

How can South Korea reduce energy consumption?

As the world’s seventh-largest energy-consuming nation (2022), South Korean officials are actively pursuing ways to reduce energy consumption while shifting towards more environmentally friendly sources. U.S. companies have opportunities in providing energy solutions including energy related engineering services.

How will South Korea transform its energy sector?

The country has unveiled an ambitious plan to transform its energy sectors, aiming to generate 70 per cent of its electricity from carbon-free sources by 2038. South Korea aims to have 30 nuclear plants by 2038 and to more than triple its solar and wind power output to 72 GW by 2030.

Does South Korea have energy security based on import dependency?

Using the results obtained from our LEAP analysis, we measured the level of energy security for each scenario with import dependency as the indicator. In 2014, South Korea imported all non-renewable primary energy sources except for 14% of anthracite and 0.7% of natural gas (KEEI, 2016a).
