A celebration event was held to mark the 3rd Smart Grid Day at the plaza of Jeju Local Government office under the theme of "Carbon-Free Island Jeju, Moving towards the World."

"Jeju Smart Grid Test Bed Complex is gaining much attention in the world with its cutting-edge technology," said Jeju Governor U Geun-min said in his congratulatory remark. "The test bed facility will make Korea suffering the shortage of energy more competitive."

Jeju unveiled the Carbon-Free Island Jeju by 2030, a mid-term plan focusing on renewable energy sources including wind power generation, smart grid and electric vehicles.
