Energy Technology Cooperation Ⅳ

① International Joint Research Program Areas of Energy Technology Cooperation Opportunities to participate in Korea’s research programs which provide funding for technology development and commercialization in the area of green energy 17

Areas of Energy Technology Cooperation Energy R&D Forum ② Overseas nations can participate in several fora, which are held regularly, related to energy technology development  Participating countries can share their energy technology strategies and measures for market development Global Green Energy Leaders Forum (2011) Energy Tech Insight (2012) World Energy Congress(2013) Clean Energy Ministerial Meeting(2014, Seoul) 18

③ e-Platform : ETA (Energy Technology Trade Agreement) – to be established - Aims to increase opportunities for sharing quality information on energy technology trade among companies, research institutes and the academia - Through the e-Platform, it is expected that information on major topics and status of technologies relevant for technology trade among stakeholders will be improved, as various information will be provided in accessible form, consisting of domestic and overseas energy technologies Areas of Energy Technology Cooperation 19
