On the 2nd, the Korea Commission for Corporate Partnership announced that it has signed a business agreement with Korea East-West Power to promote the '2025 ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) support project for partner companies.'

This business agreement was established to strengthen cooperative relationships between large corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in public institutions and to solidify ESG management throughout the supply chain.

Korea East-West Power will comprehensively support its partner SMEs based on the Korea Commission for Corporate Partnership's 'SME ESG Standard Guidelines' through customized training, on-site audits, and improvement activities.

The Korea Commission for Corporate Partnership plans to issue 'ESG Excellent SME' certificates to partner corporations with excellent ESG compliance rates and connect support so that these corporations can receive incentives in various fields such as finance, exports, and technology.

Kim Byeong-jo, head of the Win-Win Cooperation Division at Korea East-West Power, noted, 'Improving the awareness and capacity of partner SMEs regarding ESG management is essential for building a sustainable supply chain,' and said, 'We will do our best to grow together with SMEs through ESG and various support projects.'
