Daesung Group Completes Green Village Construction Project in Kazakhstan

Facilities supply electric power and drinking water to village residents using renewable energy. Daesung Group (Chairman: Kim Yeong-hoon) has changed a remote village in Kazakhstan, which is suffering from absence of electric power and insufficient drinking water, to a green village that produces electric power and drinking water by itself using renewable energy. Daesung Energy, the major subsidiary of Daesung Group, held on June 22 the ceremony celebrating completion of the ‘project of constructing a green village that supplies electric power and drinking water using renewable energy’ in a village called Saribulak, 200km northeast from Almaty, Kazakhstan. The completion ceremony was attended by President for Management Support Pak Bong-gyu at Daesung Energy, Korean Ambassador to Kazakhstan Baek Ju-hyeon, Industry and Technology Minister Asset Issekeshev of Kazakhstan, and Governor Ansar Mussakhanov of Almaty State. Having been selected by Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) as the contractor for the ‘Global Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)’ program in Kazakhstan, Daesung Energy started the project in the village in June 2010. Now that the company installed an independent solar photovoltaic power generation system with capacity of 52kWp and distribution lines while developing 130m-deep wells in Saribulak. These facilities can supply electric power and drinking water to each household in the village. Underground water is pumped up using power generated by photovoltaic power generators. A part of the management building that adopted energy-efficiency technology will be used for electric power control office and the other part will be used as community hall. During the period when it was a part of the Soviet Union, Saribulak was a thriving village with a hospital and schools, but a substantial number of residents left the village after independence of Kazakhstan as supply of electric power and drinking water was suspended. Now about 70 persons in 20 households live in the village mainly engaging in livestock-farming. A large number of villages around the vast Kazakhstan are not installed with such basic infrastructure, and the Kazakhstan government is pushing ahead programs for restoring these villages by installing electric power and water supply facilities. At the completion ceremony, President for Management Support Pak Bong-gyu at Daesung Energy said, “This project is a model demonstrating that neglected villages suffering from absence of fundamental living conditions, such as electric power and water, can be improved to salubrious places using renewable energy. With success of this project, the company will explore varied renewable energy programs in cooperation with the Kazakhstan government, local partners and Korean embassy in Kazakhstan.” President Pak also said, “Through these public-interest programs in foreign countries, Daesung Group will widely publicize excellence of Korea’s renewable energy technologies and take off as a global eco-friendly company.” Daesung Group is increasing its presence in overseas renewable energy markets by supplying the ‘SolaWin’ system, its proprietary solar energy-wind power-combined power generation system, in Mongol, Ethiopia and Bangladesh. source: todayenergy

Daesung Group – For the environment always comes first.

Daesung Group (CEO, Younghoon David Kim) participated in The 9th International Green Energy Expo Korea 2012 to tell attendees about various green projects the group is conducting. This is the Daesung Group’s booth, where the corporation displayed information on its LFG (landfill gas-to-energy) and RDF (refuse-derived fuel) businesses. People in attendance gave these project favorable reviews. One of the big draws of the Expo was Korea’s first solar power tower system, developed by Dasung Energy Co., Ltd. VIP participants from abroad were especially interested in this project. Daesung Group has more than 60 years of know-how and technological expertise. Now, the corporation moves forward to deliver total energy solutions, focusing on energy areas as natural gas and renewable energy. Presenting Korea’s future in renewable energy to famous foreign minds through solar power generation systems was a highlight of the Expo. The solar power tower system uses 450 heliostats, 2 meters in length and width, to concentrate sunlight at the top of the tower. The solar receiver, placed 50 meters high, generates heat up to 1000℃. Daesung Group has invested time and effort unsparingly to create and improve the landfill gas-to-energy business. Landfill gas is created when waste buried under ground decays to produce gases that can be used as a resource. Fifty to sixty percent of landfill gas is methane (CH4). Methane can be used to generate electricity and as a heating fuel. The most important aspect about the landfill gas business is its ability to reduce methane gas emissions released into the air, thus helping to prevent global warming. Methane is 21 times toxic than carbon dioxide on the global warming index. As a result, the CDM Project was developed and has prospered thanks to the climate change treaty. *CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) Project – allows developed countries to implement emission-reduction projects in developing countries, enabling them to earn reduction credits and gain CERs (Certified Emission Reductions) by reducing greenhouse gases. Dasung Energy Co., Ltd. also presented the RDF business model, which produces energy by making solid fuel from indrustrial waste or home waste. The technology to make refuse-derived fuel (RDF) uses combustible waste and is a great way to help improve the environment by replacing fossil fuels, which produce greenhouse gases. Lastly, Daesung Group presented its foreign green energy business. Since 2003, the corporation has supplied a solar photovoltaic (PV) energy generating system to Mongolia through the SolarWin Project. The goal of the project is to install the system on a 3.3-million-square-meter site and to provide electricity and draw well water for afforestation. The World Energy Council recently selected the Daesung Group’s GEEP Project as a model energy project in the Asia-Pacific region for three years, from 2008 to 2010. The project has become the standard model for prevention of desertification in the world. The photovoltaic module, placed in the middle of the Daesung Group’s booth, shows Expo visitors what a green future can be. Daesung Group will devote itself both to the domestic energy market and to providing energy to developing countries through renewable energy projects. Written by: energy.Korea.com

Tower style solar power (heat) generation system by Daesung Energy

Daesung Group (CEO, Younghoon David Kim) announced that its core subsidiary Daesung Energy has been selected as the main contractor of “200kW class solar power (heat) generation system development” business from the Ministry of Knowledge Economy (MKE). According to Daesung Energy, the MKE has selected Daesung Energy as the main contractor of `Strategic Technology Development Challenge in 2008`. The purpose of this challenge task was to obtain technology in new & renewable energy that has high potential for growth as the part of low-carbon green-growth policy. Using Korea Institute of Energy Research as the consigned research organization, the MKE is proceeding the solar power generation technology development business. Starting this year, the total of 11.6 billion won (government contributions of 7.15 billion won, civilian portion 4.5 billion won) will be committed to this business. And, the first Korean tower style solar power generator with 60m in height will be erected using at least 2.3ha of land. This will be the largest solar power generation facility in the country and the location is being explored in Daegu and the surrounding areas. In meantime around the world, the technology development of new and renewal energy using the Sun was focused on the light of sun. However, using the heat rather than the light of sun became known to be more efficient and economical on 10MW or larger, the solar heat power generation technology advanced rapidly. Thus, Spain and other countries in Europe and the United States have more cases of commercial installation of 10MW class or higher. Also, areas near equator in the Middle East and the desert regions in Africa, where abundant solar energy is available, are going forward with constructions of larger scale solar power generation facilities. Looking at this trend around the world, the research and technology development in solar power generation is a bit late for Korea compared to other countries. There has been a case with a small 10kW class solar power generation facility in Korea. However, the 200kW class power generation facility is the first and is considered as the ground-breaking scale. While the photovoltaic generation utilizes photoelectric effect to directly convert sun’s energy to electrical energy, the solar power generation deploys reflectors, collects hundreds and thousands degree of high temperature. Then, it uses the heat for various cycles of generations. This technology is expected to grow annually at 6.4% (EIA estimation) until 2020. Around 2020, it is expected that the solar power will be responsible for about 2,000GW of generation around the world. Also, it is forecasted that a huge market exceeding 5 trillion won per 1GW class generation equipment will be formed. That is why so many countries are scrambling to seek the first-mover advantage in this market. From this business, Daesung Group is planning to set its technology as the standard in small scale solar power generations and plans to maintain the leading position as the solar power generation operator by developing entry level models. This will be accomplished through accumulating technology by linking the existing fossil fuel power generation with the development of mid-to-large combined cycle power generation system. Also, in the mid to long, term, the company plans to integrate the advanced technology such as sun tracking, and condensing lights and others so that it can achieve 17% improvement in generation efficiency. Based on the technology, it is plans to expand the business to solar energy rich overseas regions like Mongolia, Sahara Desert. Thus, it can achieve the target market share which is 1% (20GW, 100 trillion won) of the global solar power generation market by 2020. Younghoon David Kim (CEP, Daesung Group) stated his vision, “The reason Daesung Energy is selected as the main contractor of solar power business by the government is the result of accumulated technology based on continuous investment in green energy. We are going to strategically develop businesses related to new and renewal energy such as photovoltaic, solar heat, and wind power energies. Thus, we will continuously grow the new and renewal energy business as our flagship division for the group.” Currently, Daesung Group has applied an in-house developed new and renewal energy solution, “Solar-win System” in Mongolia. The project is called the Green Eco Energy Park which utilizes about 331ha of land near Ulaanbaatar, the capitol of Mongolia. Daesung Group has been receiving technological recognition in new and renewable energy, and the project has been selected as the `noteworthy project in Asia-Pacific region` by the World Energy Council (WEC).
