One of the most frequently used words in governments and companies these days is’carbon neutrality’.

It is said that carbon neutral is a state in which the actual emission is ‘0 (zero)’ by reducing the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from burning oil or coal as much as possible.

Efforts to reduce GHG emissions are accelerating with the goal of completing’carbon neutral’ in 2050.

Hyundai Motor Company and SK decided to go together.

When Hyundai makes a hydrogen car, SK pays the fuel.

The rest of the companies, including POSCO, also decided to contribute to the storage and distribution of hydrogen, and the combined investment amounted to over 43 trillion won.

This’corporate alliance’ was established because’eco-friendly business’ is a food of the future that cannot be given up.

The government, which has to do its homework’reduction of greenhouse gases’, has, of course, vowed to help with this change.

With a goal of zero greenhouse gas, all vehicles on the road will be replaced by hydrogen and electric vehicles by 2050.

To this end, we decided to increase the operation of electric hydrogen vehicles to 300,000 this year and devote the rest of our capabilities to increasing the supply of renewable energy.

Details to fill this plan will come out around June.

Our GHG emissions are the 7th in the world and 4th in the world for per person.

This is why the international community continues to press hard to reduce carbon consumption in a hurry.
