In water quality improvement and regional development, the county will operate an environmental education vessel and build a refrigerated storage facility at a local distribution center for environmentally friendly agricultural products. The projects aim to expand opportunities for environmental education and ecological experiences and improve conditions for storing and distributing agricultural products.

In renewable energy, the county will establish solar income villages, provide households with solar panels and heat pumps, and install heat pumps at shared village facilities.

Solar income villages will be established in two villages, and 262 households will receive support through the household renewable energy program. All 21 villages were selected for the program to provide heat pumps to shared village facilities. The county expects the projects to improve energy efficiency in homes and shared facilities and ease the burden on residents.

Yangpyeong County Governor Jeon Jinseon said, "We will use the funding we secured to carry out projects that provide tangible benefits to residents without a hitch. We will continue to identify projects that reflect residents' needs and local conditions, and work to improve their living environments and promote regional development."
