Through this agreement, Dongdaemun-gu plans to accelerate carbon reduction by adding EnergyX’s professional technology to the carbon-neutral policies for buildings established in January this year.

Ilpyeong Lee, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, said, “Through collaboration with energy efficiency technology companies, we will take the lead in reducing carbon emissions in the building sector more than any other local government. We will also systematically manage greenhouse gas reduction amounts in various fields including buildings to become a leading carbon-neutral city.”
