In short
On the 26th, the Ministry of Climate and Energy will discuss an electricity rate reform plan during a parliamentary audit.
The power and water supply issues for the Honam semiconductor industrial complex will be revisited.
Korea Electric Power Corporation's financial structure and plans for new nuclear power plants have also emerged as key issues.
