Doosan Enerbility and Korea Western Power have formalized their partnership through the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to jointly develop and demonstrate mid-sized hydrogen power plant turbines in Korea. The agreement includes Doosan Enerbility focusing on technology development and manufacturing, while Korea Western Power will apply the turbines in new power plants and conduct performance tests. The collaboration aims to support government initiatives for clean hydrogen use in power generation and to establish a reliable hydrogen power infrastructure. By involving domestic enterprises, the companies also plan to facilitate the global expansion of Korea's hydrogen turbines. Doosan Enerbility's Vice Chairman expressed confidence in the partnership's ability to enhance domestic hydrogen power stability and drive international growth. The company is committed to delivering 90MW and 400MW hydrogen turbines by 2028 as part of its efforts towards zero-carbon power generation. The signing ceremony, held at Doosan Enerbility's Changwon headquarters, marked a significant step in advancing hydrogen technology in South Korea.
