K-RE100 and KEPCO rules, explained —
so your next move is clear.
OpenEnergy gathers the scattered rules on renewable energy, K-RE100, CBAM and supplier ESG in Korea into one place, so that ESG managers at manufacturers can decide their next move on information they can trust.
About OpenEnergy
What we do
OpenEnergy started as an in-house venture of KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Corporation). Working from KEPCO systems and site data, we make sense of Korea's renewable energy, K-RE100 and CBAM rules, then design each company's transition route and run it on their behalf.
Why this exists
Why we built this
What slows the move to renewable energy in Korea is not willingness. It is information. K-RE100, green premium, RECs, direct PPAs, CBAM and buyer ESG requirements are each explained by a different body in a different document, and every company works the pieces out on its own. We believe the fastest way to begin is to gather what is scattered into one place and say plainly what to do first. That is why we built this.
The library has things like the Korea Energy Agency's guide to K-RE100 compliance routes, the government's joint manual on calculating CBAM emissions, and the Ministry of Trade's K-ESG supply chain due diligence guideline. For each one we check the issuing body and the date, whether the source link still works, and whether the copy being handed out is really the current edition. We have found two-year-old editions still in circulation. Only then does it go up, with a line on which companies need it and why.
