Business Information
Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) is South Korea’s leading state-owned energy enterprise, supplying approximately 32% of the nation’s electricity through nuclear, hydro, pumped-storage, and renewable sources. Prioritizing safety, KHNP tackles surging AI-driven power demand and carbon neutrality by optimizing existing plants while advancing new builds, innovative Small Modular Reactors (i-SMR), and clean hydrogen production to spearhead the clean energy transition.
Beyond domestic operations, KHNP vitalizes the nuclear ecosystem and expands globally into markets such as the Czech Republic and Romania. Its core R&D arm, the Central Research Institute, drives innovation by securing SMART100 design approval and building SMR-based carbon-neutral city models. The institute also deploys next-generation technologies―such as intelligent robots, drones, digital twins, and early warning systems―while boosting global competitiveness through its open innovation platform (K-CLOUD).
