Its role Developer
KEPCO Australia Pty Ltd is the Australian subsidiary of Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), South Korea's largest electric utility responsible for the majority of the country's power generation, transmission, and distribution.
Established in 2006 as an Australian private company, it focuses on developing energy projects and services that support Australia's net-zero transition, including renewable energy initiatives, green hydrogen and ammonia production, grid infrastructure optimization, and electrification solutions.
The company operates primarily from Sydney, New South Wales, and is actively involved in major projects such as the KEPCO Newcastle Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Project within the Port of Newcastle Clean Energy Precinct, targeting export-oriented production for South Korean markets.
Leveraging KEPCO's global expertise in power generation (including renewables and nuclear), high-voltage transmission, smart grids, energy storage systems, and advanced metering, KEPCO Australia pursues opportunities in clean energy infrastructure and bilateral energy cooperation.
As a wholly owned subsidiary within the KEPCO group, it contributes to the parent company's international expansion in sustainable energy while aligning with Australian policy goals for decarbonization and energy security.
