en.Wedoany.com Reported - South Korea's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 3rd that the Green Retrofit Review Committee, after comprehensively evaluating factors such as feasibility, energy-saving effects, application of climate adaptation technologies, and regional influence, has finally selected 318 old public buildings for green retrofit support, including five "landmark projects" that will introduce cutting-edge energy-saving technologies and designs.

Green retrofit is a project that improves the energy efficiency of old buildings by enhancing insulation performance, installing high-performance windows and doors, replacing high-efficiency heating and cooling equipment, and promoting the use of renewable energy devices.

The project will also apply climate response technologies such as reinforcing drainage facilities, installing leakage and submersion sensors, laying heating cables, and implementing rooftop greening to enhance the buildings' resilience to extreme weather conditions like heatwaves, heavy snow, and floods.

This year, the scope of support has been expanded to public buildings closely related to people's daily lives, including senior centers, libraries, community public facilities, and social welfare centers, aiming to ensure that the public can tangibly feel the project's effects.

Jung Ui-kyung, head of the Land and Urban Bureau at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, expressed hope that the public sector's proactive actions will promote the spread of green retrofits to the private sector and revitalize the development of green buildings in the region.
