In an
attempt to respond to environmental changes
in the industry, KOMIPO established "The Mid
and Long term Research and Development Plan"
during a 10-year period in July, 2005. The
Core Technology Development of the Next Generation's
Thermal Power' and 'The Low Carbon Technology
Development against Climate Change' is at
the center of attention with KOMIPO's planning
to invest a total of some 442 billion won
by 2014 in the ten major research areas, including
the better reliability in facilities, digital
auto-control technology, preventive technology
of environmental pollution and renewable energy
technology. |
|
| |
| Taking into account
the fact that the basic and applied research in
the power generation field takes long periods of
time to analyze as well as incurring high costs
to practical plans along with an optimal portfolio
have been created and are being conducted jointly
with many suitable research institutes. |
| |
| As
of 2007, domestic power companies are co-participating
in carrying out about 45 core and strategic
technology research at the government level
including 'the development of life span detecting
technology while operational cessation','the
flue gas desulfuization study for 500MW Korean
type standard coal-fired power plants' etc.
Meanwhile, as part of our efforts towards
the practical plans, KOMIPO has aggressively
pursued on-site technology development on
its own, in particular, about three projects
which are underway, including the domestic
fire detection technology development which
use gas turbines. |
|
 |
|
| |
| Amid efforts to secure
advanced technology, joint R&D with the EPRI
and European research institutes on environment
policies are underway. We are moving towards future-oriented
core technology development and as part of those
efforts, we are trying to utilize new thermal power
technology, as well as information from European
environmental policies that include 'the development
of gas turbine operational and maintenance technology',
'the causes and countermeasures concerning boiler
accidents' and 'the development on maintenance guide
for plants'. |
