Under the theme of carbon neutrality, the Bitgaram International Exposition of Electric Power Technology 2021 (Bixpo 2021) is presenting future energy technologies in the energy industry.
Hosted by Korea Electric Power Corporation from November 10 to 12, 2021, the event is being held at the Kim Dae Jung Convention Centre in Gwangju, South Korea and also being held online simultaneously. Some 248 companies from Korea and the world over are participating.
Marking its 7th year, Bixpo 2021 will undoubtedly be a comprehensive international energy exposition that presents future technologies and direction of the energy industry, including renewable energies and energy efficiency, under the theme of Carbon Neutrality, the global critical issue.
Kepco has been hosting the Bixpo to provide the global energy industry with opportunities to share the latest technologies and expand exchanges and collaborations between leading companies in Korea and other countries.
The event this year features keynote addresses by Ban Ki-moon, former Secretary General of the United Nations, and Angela Wilkinson, Secretary General of the World Energy Council (WEC).
At the ceremony of declaring the carbon neutrality vision, Cheong Seung-il, President of Kepco, initially declares the company’s vision of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, and discusses its significance.
To help Korea achieve the carbon neutrality goal on schedule, Kepco plans to lead decarbonisation in the energy transition sector by innovating power supply systems, and to fully support other implementation segments, such as overall industry, transportation and buildings.
As part of its efforts to reduce greenhouse gas, Kepco is demonstrating major technologies and policies for addressing the climate crisis by composing realistic content, such as smart tables and videos of future vision.
At the Energy Leaders Summit, the primary conference of Bixpo, experts from international organisations in the energy sector including the WEC, International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena) and International Energy Agency (IEA) are discussing global trends of implementing commitment for carbon neutrality by 2050.
Also, chief executive officers and chief technology officers at global utilities will disclose commitment to achieving imminent carbon neutrality goals and action plans for achieving such goals of their respective countries.-- TradeArabia News Service
