At the signing ceremony on 23rd, Hanjin President Cho Hyun-min, CEO Noh Sam-seok, and LS E-Link CEO Kim Dae-geun attended.

Through the agreement, Hanjin and LS E-Link will strengthen cooperation on ▲ logistics infrastructure electrification ▲ new energy businesses ▲ smart operations and building an integrated platform.

First, they will make Hanjin's transport means, such as medium- and heavy-duty trucks, and port logistics equipment eco-friendly and electrified, and jointly build electric charging infrastructure within logistics hubs.

In addition, using Hanjin's major business sites infrastructure, they will develop renewable power plants and pursue new power businesses linked to LS E-Link's charging infrastructure.

They will also jointly develop an operations platform that integrates and manages logistics and energy operations data, move to demonstration, and on that basis, identify new businesses.

A Hanjin official said, "Through cooperation with LS E-Link, we will ramp up new businesses spanning logistics and energy and take the lead in creating a sustainable, eco-friendly logistics ecosystem."
