 In the future, the way we consume electricity may change, as well as the equipment that draws it from power plants and through transmission lines. Technological advancements have expanded electricity transmission from alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), and solar panels in homes are now able to generate power. With the development of auxiliary devices such as energy storage systems (ESS), we are living in an era where homes and buildings are both power plants and power consumers.  KEPCO, which is in charge of transmission and distribution, is preparing for a different future by developing power technologies. Representative examples are the development of supercapacitors for frequency regulation and superconducting cables without electrical resistance. Supercapacitors Supercapacitors for frequency regulation are a complement to lithium battery-type ESSs. One of the many roles of an ESS is to keep the electrical frequency constant at 60 Hz. If the frequency is high...

 Nuclear power stocks are leading the market as the era of U.S.-centered “energy supremacy” is expected to accelerate under Trump's second term. Nuclear power plant companies, small modular reactors (SMRs) and uranium mining companies have been rallying since Trump's inauguration.                                       Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant, Pennsylvania, USA According to the financial investment industry, U.S. nuclear power stocks have extended their gains after U.S. President Donald Trump declared a “national energy emergency,” according to the Financial Times on Jan. 26. The president said that he would treat nuclear energy on par with oil, coal, and natural gas, and emphasized that national energy independence is linked to national security, drawing attention to related stocks as he signaled all-out support. Constellation Energy (CEG), the No. 1 operator of nuclear powe...
