Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co. (KHNP) said on the 7th that it received the top "best" grade in both the "2025 public data provision and operation assessment" and the "2025 data-driven administration inspection," overseen by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.
KHNP has achieved the top grade for seven straight years since the public data assessment began in 2019, and for four straight years since the data-driven administration assessment began in 2022. A KHNP official said, "This year, the assessment grades were subdivided from three levels to five, increasing discrimination, yet KHNP scored over 95 in both assessments and continued its excellent performance at the top grade."
This assessment examined 684 institutions, including central administrative agencies, local governments, and public institutions, reviewing the overall provision and operation of data such as the openness and use of public data, quality, management systems, and data analysis, use, and sharing. KHNP was recognized as the top institution in all areas of the assessment. In particular, it received better evaluations than the previous year in indicators such as public data openness and use, quality control, and data-sharing cooperation.
Building on this result, KHNP plans to accelerate innovation and strengthen safety by integrating generative artificial intelligence (AI) across its operations as a corporations leading the use of data-driven AI. To that end, it will strengthen all employees' data utilization capabilities and further solidify a data-driven decision-making culture.
Park Seong-ho, head of AI innovation at KHNP, said, "We will continue to provide reliable, high-quality data and lead service innovation that the public can feel, not only in the policy use of data."
