Saemangeum is emerging as a key hub for South Korea's clean energy transition and the realization of RE100, which involves sourcing 100 percent of electricity from renewable energy.
The 2026 Saemangeum Clean Energy Expo, hosted by Jeollabuk-do Special Self-Governing Province and Gunsan City and organized by Jeollabuk Technopark, will be held over two days on September 17 and 18 at Gunsan Saemangeum Convention Center (GSCO).
Under the slogan "Energy transition beginning with sunlight and wind, RE100 Jeollabuk," the expo will focus on the present and future of Jeollabuk's clean energy industries, including renewable energy, hydrogen, and RE100.
The event is expected to serve as a venue to widely publicize the province's clean energy policies and industrial status at home and abroad, while building a dense network among industry, academia, research, and government to promote expansion of the regional energy industry ecosystem and facilitate technology and information exchange.
