It plans to enter the market of operating nuclear power plants in Europe by expanding technology exchanges with GDES.

A KEPCO KPS official said, "Cooperation with GDES will go beyond simple technology exchange to become a global partnership model that combines the strengths of both companies," adding, "With this agreement, we will actively expand KEPCO KPS's maintenance capabilities not only in Europe but also in markets around the world."
