About KIER
Renewable energy innovation technology for realizing the ‘Energy Transition 3030/5060’ plan
We are developing next-generation technologies of ‘high-efficiency low-cost photovoltaics’, ‘wind power generation’, ‘batteries in grid-scale energy storage system as well as for electric vehicles’, ‘renewable-energy resource mapping & forecasting’ and ‘renewable-energy integrated platform’ in order to contribute to more renewable power generation given by nature without greenhouse gas emission, leading to the related-industry growth.
Strategic directions
-
01
Development of low cost/ultra high efficiency multi-junction solar cells that exceed the limiting efficiency of commercial silicon solar cells and the flexible/lightweight/transmissive multi-functional thin-film solar cells that overcome the limitation of installation location and maximize applicability and aesthetics
-
02
Optimization of large-scale offshore wind farms based on the troubleshooting and operation technology of the wind power generation system to increase acceptance and reduce LCOE
-
03
Development of large-capacity/long-cycle ESS in response to the volatility of the power system and Development of next-generation secondary battery for high capacity/fast charging for EV
-
04
Construction of New/renewable energy convergence platform and realization of an energy-independent city by ensuing reliability/stability of infrastructure technology and distributed energy
