KEPCO KDN (CEO Kim Jang-hyun), a specialist in energy ICT, participated within the 2024 Electrical Industry Expo (EPEK) held at EXCO in Daegu from the twelfth to the 14th and showed off its energy ICT technology.
The 2024 Electrical Industry Expo (EPEK) is Korea’s largest electric festival hosted by the Korea Electrical Contractors Association, and major domestic and foreign corporations similar to Korea Electric Power Corporation, Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power, and LH take part in the longer term industry to answer megatrends similar to energy conversion and digital conversion. Linked specialized exhibitions and seminars were held.
KEPCO KDN presents a complete of 4 solutions at this exhibition: ▲Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based power image quality improvement system ▲K-electric vehicle charging platform CHA-ON ▲SG (Smart Grid) device security authentication system ▲Offshore wind power generation facility maintenance management system submitted.
KEPCO KDN’s ‘AI-based power image quality improvement system’ utilizes the most recent deep learning technology to convert low-resolution images into top quality and precisely restore and extract the essential image information. OPGW robotically processes clarity, noise, and contrast information. (Optical fiber composite processing branch line) It could actually provide excellent diagnostic leads to the fields of metal fittings and power facility monitoring and diagnosis.
KEPCO KDN’s electric vehicle charging brand, ‘K-Electric Vehicle Charging Platform CHA-ON’, is a platform that gives optimal electric vehicle charging services through linkage between electric vehicle chargers and a cloud-based operating system. It’s a PNC based on the ISO-15118 international standard for slow chargers. It provides smart charging functions similar to (Plug & Charge) and allows anyone to simply access the charging service provider by allowing them to pick out the specified function through a SaaS (Software as a Service)-based cloud service.
The ‘SG (Smart Grid) device security authentication system’ strengthens the safety of devices (AMI, power distribution, EV, etc.) operated within the intelligent power grid (Smart Grid), and is designed to forestall hackers from occurring as a result of the character of power devices which are at all times exposed to the skin. With the intention to reply to security threats from devices, a novel certificate is provided to every device, helping to bill users for accurate power usage and forestall personal details about electricity usage from being leaked.
KEPCO KDN will apply the system to FEP servers (58 units), DCUs (400,000 units), and modems (6 million units) in 2018, EV charger systems in 2021, and high-voltage AMR equipment certification systems in 2022 to offer protected power communication against external risks. and is looking for to expand its business area by constructing 15 million smart meters.
‘Offshore wind power generation facility maintenance management system’ is a web-based system to efficiently perform maintenance and management of offshore wind power generators. It increases the reliability of offshore wind power generation facilities and develops them through preemptive failure preparation through systematic maintenance plan establishment and management. It is alleged that it helps maximize offshore wind power generation by minimizing facility operation downtime.
As well as, it is alleged that the profitability of an efficient power generation complex may be improved by reducing short- and long-term costs through optimized maintenance schedule management, resource allocation, and power trading support.
A KEPCO KDN official said, “We expect to find a way to effectively promote the solutions of energy ICT specialized corporations through the Electric Industry Expo,” and added, “As Korea’s only energy ICT platform specialist company, we are going to seek latest business diversification to contribute to the event of the energy industry.” “We are going to work harder to make it occur,” he said.
