According to a June 2022 report by Electronic Times (ET News), an information technology media outlet based in South Korea, KEPCO announced its plan to tender contracts

KEPCO implemented the project under the 9th Basic Electricity Supply and Demand Plan, aiming for renewable energy to reach 40% of Korea's power mix by 2034. The utility also plans to build another 300 MW battery energy storage system by 2028.
ET News said it marked the utility’s first bulk procurement of battery storage in five years since the Korean market was put on pause by a series of fires at mostly commercial and industrial (C&I) facilities during 2017-2018.
The rated storage capacity of the project is 12,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology. The project was announced in 2015 and will be commissioned in 2016. The project is owned by Korea Electric Power.
As regular Energy-Storage.news readers will know, the raw material and logistics-related price spikes began in late 2021 and ended in early 2023. According to KEPCO’s 26 September 2024 announcement, the total invested in the project was around KRW830 billion (US$627.57 million).
