Proposes 2016 management catchphrase ¡®Hobokgisa,¡¯ meaning breaking the mold

30(Sat), Jan, 2016




Korea Power Exchange (KPX) CEO-Chairman Yoo Sang-hee delivers his speech at a ceremony to kick off the 2016 business year.



In his New Year message on Jan. 4, Korea Power Exchange (KPX) CEO&Chairman Yoo Sang-hee urged his executives and staff members to correspond to changing time, shed any unnecessary old habits and drastically innovate.

While delivering the message at a ceremony to kick off the 2016 business year at the KPX headquarters, KPX Chairman Yoo cited his 2016 management catchphrase ¡°hobokgisa,¡± a Chinese saying that means breaking the old mold. 

Yoo said, ¡°The government has begun to cope with the post-2020 climate change regime earnestly by nurturing such new energy industries as the megawatt market, electric car and energy storage system (ESS). KPX has to make this year a year for preparing new market systems and future power grid regimes.¡± 

Yoo disclosed his intention to proactively spearhead major issues, departing from its defensive and passive attitude, and concentrate his focus on distributed energy resources and the opening of energy ¡°prosumer¡± market. 

The following is the gist of his New Year¡¯s message:

¡°In my 2015 New Year¡¯s Message, I proposed the management catchphrase ¡®Ihwanwili,¡¯ a Chinese saying that means calls for turning an unexpected crisis into a blessing in disguise.

¡°We¡¯ve experienced several hardships in such areas as the government evaluation of public entities¡¯ performances, power grid and market operation and inside and outside communications. We¡¯ve overcome them wisely and turned them into opportunities. 

¡°The most exciting thing is the harmonizing of management and labor. Our staff¡¯s satisfaction has improved. In particular, an outside evaluation showed that KPX is rated to be the public entity with the most integrity. 

¡°This year, the government plans to push for the reforming of four areas, including the energy field, so that people sense core outcomes on the third year of its three-year economic innovation plan.

¡°As you know, power and ICT convergence, eco-friendly energy and energy prosumer is quickly changing the energy paradigm from supply to demand. 

¡°Of late, the post-2020 climate change pact at the COP 21 Conference in Paris is considered as an opportunity, not a crisis. The government is stressing a plan to utilize a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions as an opportunity to create new growth engines through technology innovation, not the burden it brings. 

¡°There is a Chinese saying ¡®hobokgisa.¡¯ We have to correspond to changes and demands of the times, shed any unnecessary old habits and drastically innovate.

¡°KPX has to make this year a year for preparing new market systems and future power grid regimes.

¡°First, we have to prepare for new market systems. First of all, we should devote ourselves to opening distributed resources and energy prosumer markets.

¡°Second, we have to establish processes for operating power grid in conformity with the improving of market regimes.¡±
