Korea Institute of Energy Research, taking the lead in the 2050 Carbon Neutralization to overcome the climate crisis.

The world's leading research institute producing outstanding performance based on the corporate culture of collaboration.

As a leading research institute in energy technology, we enhance human life quality and realize a sustainable future.

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.

Realizing the hydrogen economy society

We will lead the realization of a hydrogen economy society by R&D of hydrogen supply and usage technologies. For this purpose, green and blue hydrogen without greenhouse gas emission, green ammonia for efficient hydrogen storage and fuel cell for hydrogen usage are being developed.

Development of smart energy technologies for a high-efficiency and low-carbon society

The Energy Efficiency Research Division researches to improve the efficiency of the energy system over the entire cycle from energy production to consumption by developing high-efficiency energy supply systems, intelligent distributed resource management, and efficiency improvement technologies of energy-consuming equipment.
