Support for housing-vulnerable households in five towns and townships in Gijang-gun

KRW 80 million for insulation upgrades and window and boiler replacements

Sixteen households in Gijang-gun, Busan, whose homes are in poor condition, will have repairs made before winter. The Kori Nuclear Power Headquarters is helping improve insulation and heating systems, reducing heating costs and making homes warmer.


Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power's Kori Nuclear Power Headquarters, led by Director Ban Byeonghun, announced on November 3 that it had launched the "e-Ansim House" project on November 2 to improve housing conditions for vulnerable groups in Gijang-gun.


The project has a budget of KRW 80 million. It will support 16 households in five towns and townships in Gijang-gun, including households receiving basic livelihood support, low-income families, and elderly people living alone.

Employees of Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power’s Kori Nuclear Power Headquarters are carrying out the “e-Ansim House” project to improve living conditions for vulnerable residents in Gijang-gun.

Support will include adding insulation, replacing windows and boilers, and installing LED lights. The project focuses on reducing heating and cooling costs by upgrading residential facilities with low energy efficiency.


The project is being carried out in partnership with the Gijang Regional Self-Sufficiency Center. It will also help create local jobs by drawing on workers from the area to make the necessary home improvements.


Ban Byeonghun, director of the Kori Nuclear Power Headquarters, said, "I hope this will help ease the financial burden on our neighbors near the power plant and provide them with warm homes." He added, "We will continue community service activities focused on local needs to ensure that no one is left behind."



Changes to a single home cannot solve every hardship, but replacing an old window and repairing a heating system can make a big difference to someone getting through the winter.
