Changes in Future Society and Need of Green Growth
Three trends threatening our future – Global Warming (Hot), Globalization &
Growing Middle Class (Flat), and Population Growth (Crowded)
Need to respond resource crisis and environmental problems
Regulatory support for the efficient use of resources and minimization of environmental pollution.
Need to set a policy direction on GT R&D according to the environmental changes.
Response Future Threat
Preoccupancy
Policy Future-oriented low-carbon green growth was presented as a new national vision to overcome resource crisis such as high oil price and climate change.
(President Lee Myungbak, in his Liberation Day speech) Green growth is not an option but a must;
However, Korea is facing a long way ahead.

Key Technology of Green Growth
Secondary batteries (SB) can reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas through energy efficiency
- Secondary batteries can be used in the area from mobile IT to large-scale energy storage applications
Renewable Energy Storage
- The energy efficiency resulting from the use of secondary batteries will result in 483 kTOE reduction in energy use and 26 kTON/year reduction in greenhouse gas in Korea
R&D Status
13
Established Roadmap in ｢Core Green Technology Development and Commercialization Strategy
(‘09.5)｣
- Commercialization of Green Car and Household secondary batteries by year 2020
Secondary batteries have been selected as one of the ten action plans for the green growth in year 2010 (‘10.2. Presidential Committee on Green Growth)
The government is expanding the investment on the secondary batteries R&D
The establishment of the national R&D roadmap including basic research, commercialization, and field test is on the way
The secondary batteries development for vehicle application and electrical energy storage is on the way by major companies such as LG chemicals, Samsung SDI, SK Innovation.
The battery companies are expanding their collaboration with research institute and universities for the basic research
