BK Energy participates in Malaysia's 'Environmental Technology and Product Expo (IGEM)'... introduces domestic floating solar power technology

Promotion of cutting-edge floating solar power in connection with cultural tourism... providing an opportunity to enter the global market

BK Energy Co., Ltd., a small floating solar power company, introduced Korea's cutting-edge floating solar power technology through Malaysia's 'Environmental Technology and Product Expo (IGEM)', attracting the attention of stakeholders from Southeast Asia and around the world.

At this expo, which was held at the KLCC exhibition hall in Kuala Lumpur from October 12 to 15, BK Energy Co., Ltd. set up an independent booth and promoted floating solar power facilities linked to cultural tourism. In the case of Southeast Asia, while there is a lack of experience with floating solar power, the issue of nature damage has recently been highlighted, and awareness of the sustainable field of water is increasing. Accordingly, interest in BK Energy's advanced floating solar power technology, which was introduced locally through this exhibition, was also strong.

BK Energy Co., Ltd. actively promoted the advantages of floating solar power while actively engaging in sales using its unrivaled patented technology and project experience.

In fact, in Korea, floating solar power goes beyond simply minimizing damage to nature and goes beyond: preventing green algae by blocking a certain amount of sunlight, securing water resources by suppressing water evaporation, protecting the habitat of aquatic organisms by adding cutting-edge technology, and protecting water resources by increasing the spawning efficiency of aquatic organisms. It is gaining attention as its positive effects on the natural ecosystem, such as proliferation, become known.

The performance also exceeded expectations. First, by participating in the floating solar power installation project on public waters in Penang, Malaysia, it is preparing a business plan and approval for a floating solar power project with a scale of approximately 1,000 MW (project cost approximately KRW 1.5 trillion) on public waters. In addition, there are a series of requests for cooperation from dams and abandoned mine areas where hydroelectric power generation is currently in progress, raising expectations for large-scale export contracts in the future.

At the same time, exclusive contracts for water solar technology and agricultural solar technology with Yemen's local solar company A are being discussed positively, spurring its advance into the world such as Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

"The company has recently been selected as the organizer of the research and development project for 'building a pilot project for water purification of water quality linked to cultural tourism based on ICT' with research expenses of about 3 billion won in collaboration with Century Comprehensive Environment, Jeonbuk National University Industrial Cooperation Group, and the Korea Electronics Technology Institute," said Lee Haeng-woo, president of BK Energy. He added, "As it exists in an endless market around the world as well as 17,599 reservoirs in Korea, we will take the lead in enhancing the environment and value of the planet through cultural tourism, carbon neutral and water quality improvement."
