South Korea aims to reach 100 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030. This is a significant step towards the country's transition to a sustainable energy future. This figure, currently at 37 GW, will be almost tripled.
This strategy envisages increasing the share of renewable energy in the country's electricity generation to 20% by 2030. This initiative is aimed at significantly reducing the risk of dependence on fossil fuels and strengthening energy security.
These plans will serve to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while also increasing the country's resilience to the volatility of global energy prices. Through this, South Korea aims to achieve its goals of environmental sustainability and economic stability.
According to PV Tech, South Korea is reviewing its energy policy through these massive changes and contributing to sustainable development on a global scale.
