Rise of Pink Hydrogen Transports Solar Power.
South Korea is doubling its financial support for renewable energy and grid infrastructure, moving toward a hybrid model of nuclear and green power. The government has officially launched the approval process for the Uljin Nuclear Hydrogen National Industrial Complex. This project uses surplus energy from 10 nuclear reactors to power massive hydrogen electrolysis, a process dubbed Pink Hydrogen. A new climate budget includes funding for a West Coast Energy Expressway. This high-voltage direct current line is designed to transport wind and solar power from rural coastal areas directly to the industrial heart of Seoul. The plan aims to deploy 100 GW of renewable energy by 2030, with 2026 marked as the inaugural year for regional smart grids that allow local districts to manage their own power bidding.
