South Korea plans to significantly reduce the share of coal and LNG in power generation from 60% to 20% by 2038, while increasing renewable energy sources from 9% to 33%. The government aims for a 40% reduction in industrial emissions by 2030, although this shift may lead to job losses and factory closures in the industrial sector. While the country has approved the Saeul-3 nuclear reactor, the pace of nuclear energy deployment may not match the decline of fossil fuels.
