Even at this moment, there are many hidden industrial forces who are doing their best in their respective positions to develop the power industry, and I am ashamed that I have received the award to go back to them."
"I hope that we can instill a ray of hope that if we work hard with sincerity, we can win a big prize," said Won Kwang-soo, CEO of Wonkwang Electric Power Co., who received the Order of Stone Pagoda Industry at the event.
He said the award seems to be a price for the efforts and sincerity that have been accumulated in the electric and engineering industries. He stressed that he has been making steady efforts, not in a hurry, under the motto of "Ugong Yi-san."
Although it may seem silly, he has consistently practiced the motto based on the ancient Chinese word, "Taehwangsan Mountain can be moved one day if you carry the soil without a break," according to the report.



Since the establishment of Wonkwang Electric Power Co. in 1988, Jeon has maintained a partner company for more than 30 years since he first participated in KEPCO’s unit price contract for the uninterrupted power distribution corporation in 1995, and has shown perfect construction without any errors.
In addition, by creating a society every year, the company, including community service and helping neighbors, has not only raised its status in the industry but also become an example of the electricians.
In particular, the government has recently been striving to secure technological capabilities in preparation for the era of the fourth industrial revolution as well as energy policy trends pushed by the government, including renewable energy.
He explained that he has set up a research institute to prepare various new projects.
Through the project to develop ESS-type export-type ESS in special environment areas, the company is also making various achievements, including the construction of ESS-linked solar power plants at the Maldives Mallahani Resort.
It completed construction of ‘World Culture Energy Photovoltaic Power Plant’, Korea’s first solar power plant for sale, in Haenam County in 2005, and is currently working on various solar power projects in Korea.
Some solar power plants are also focusing their capabilities on research and development for the development of related industries, including those directly owned by the company," Jeon stressed.
"We are now in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. We need to stick to reality and make efforts to prepare for the future. The food in the electric industry is already highly saturated, and the future can only be guaranteed if it is prepared for the fourth industrial revolution, starting with new energy industries such as ESS. To do this, we do a variety of tasks through the sub-lab.”
He said, "If companies are lazy because they are satisfied with the reality, they will have no choice but to take a backward course. Companies that change rapidly in line with the changing times can win the competition and grow into old ones," he said. "We have been working to create sustainable companies, and now our goal is to build a foundation for our juniors to develop and develop with pride."
