Chungcheongnam-do established the plan for mid- to long-term strategy on shifting the fossil fuel-centered energy paradigm to new & renewable energy.

On May 10, the province held the "Chungcheongnam-do Energy Conversion Vision Establishment Research & Service" initiation briefing session at the conference room in the Provincial Office, with 20 people attending including Administrative Vice Governor Nam Gung-young and members of the special provincial climate & energy committee.

The Chungnam Energy Conversion Vision is promoting the establishment according to the need for planning future climate and energy policies in response to climate change, population and industrial structure change, and local environmental conditions.

The plan is for the province to pursue fair and righteous energy decentralization for the supply of inexpensive and stable power by breaking free from the role of power production base, aim for a safe, decarbonized renewable energy system, and prepare and lead the conversion process of the national energy system.

The research & service for establishing the vision will be completed within this year, and the province will set the temporal & spatial range to be applied until 2040.

Through research & service, the province will ▲provide the vision establishment system and project promotion schedule and ▲ study & analyze the domestic & foreign energy policy trend and cases, existing energy policies in the province on responding to climate change, and status & prospects of energy supply and consumption in Chungnam.

In addition, the future energy scenario will be developed for Chungnam based on the survey among provincial personnel on awareness of energy and climate change.

Moreover, the implementation methods for accomplishing the energy vision & policy goal will be provided by ▲setting the Chungnam energy policy vision and long-term goal, ▲providing the strategy and main project for realizing the energy vision, ▲connecting & integrating policies related to energy & climate change, ▲institutionalizing and activating the Chungnam energy governance, and ▲providing the national system improvement plan for energy decentralization.
