About this listen
Korea’s energy sector is at an inflection point—one shaped by deepening nuclear cooperation abroad, the Trump administration's tariffs, and a presidential transition in Seoul. These developments could reshape not only Korea’s domestic energy mix but also its role in international LNG markets, global clean tech supply chains, and joint reactor exports with the U.S. Will the next Korean administration double down on renewables, microgrids, and energy storage—or stick with the current nuclear-heavy approach? And how will Washington’s tariff and trade policies influence Seoul’s long-term energy partnerships?
In this episode, Paul Saunders speaks with Chinho Park, the Acting President of the Korea Institute of Energy Technology (KENTECH). Dr. Park served previously as a strategic planner at Korea's Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy.
