KOREA POWER EXCHANGE
The Leading Professional Institution of Energy Transition with Fairness at its Core

I would like to convey my sincere appreciation to you for visiting the homepage of Korea Power Exchange.

As the only institution responsible for the operation of the power market and the electricity grid in the country, Korea Power Exchange has led the development of the South Korea’s power industry through fair operation of the power market, reliable operation of the electricity grid, and practical policy support of the basic electricity supply and demand plan.

recently, the domestic and international power industry environments are rapidly changing. The reorganization of new social and economic order around the power industry is accelerating worldwide, including securing power supply stability, implementing carbon neutrality to cope with the climate crisis, and the spread of new energy industry boosted by the 4th Industrial Revolution. Korea recognizes energy security and carbon neutrality as key tasks by proactively responding to global resource supply and demand uncertainties, and focuses its policy capabilities on preparing feasible and scientific carbon neutral implementation measures, market-based demand efficiency, and fostering new energy industries.

In order to preemptively respond to these environmental changes, the Korea Power Exchange is committed to ensuring a stable power supply, while establishing a power market structure based on market principles, establishing a flexible and robust power system operating system, and changing the new paradigm of the Basic Plan for Long-term Electricity(BPLE) is set as a goal and implemented step by step. In addition, we are contributing to the transition to a green economy by leading the expansion of new energy industries centered on consumers, such as the energy prosumer market, national DR, small-scale power brokerage market, and direct PPA activation

In addition, KPX is striving to provide high-quality public services to the people by improving the fairness and efficiency of institutional operation through the establishment of new technology-based power IT, strengthening financial solvency, and establishment of a job-oriented manpower management system.

KPX is trusted by the people and the power industry through righteousness management, and plays key roles in 'supporting stable and reasonable energy policy establishment', 'establishing and operating a fair and efficient next-generation electricity market', and 'creating new business models in the energy sector'. We will fulfill our duty as the best energy platform operator by faithfully carrying out our duties and contribute to improving the quality of life of the people.
