South Jeolla Hosts Korea’s First Offshore Wind Expo
South Jeolla Province held Korea’s first offshore wind expo in Yeosu on July 18 and 19. About 1,000 people and companies attended to talk about wind energy. The province has strong, steady winds and shallow seas, making it ideal for wind farms. South Jeolla hopes to become a wind energy leader and plans to build up to 30GW of power by 2035. It holds nearly one-third of Korea’s total wind power potential.
