The Ministry of Foreign Affairs evaluated that this industrial inspection served as an opportunity to widely promote South Korea's renewable energy industry capabilities and promote the expansion of international cooperation by directly publicizing the sites of energy transition in terms of both supply and demand, namely electric vehicle production and industrial complex solar power generation, amid the government's full-scale promotion of energy transition. It added that it will continue to prepare opportunities for expanding international cooperation in the clean energy sector and actively support the export and order receipt of related companies. This is the government's self-portrait that it has raised the status of K-energy on the diplomatic stage by putting domestic advanced eco-friendly manufacturing processes and voluntary solar power models on the line. A list-style tour log for the diplomatic corps in Korea may have beautifully decorated the public officials' reports. However, it is questionable whether a one-off tour offensive that shows only a well-structured showroom, while masking the harsh reality of domestic renewable energy procurement faced by global companies, can open a practical breakthrough for international cooperation.
The most painful blind spot of this inspection is that the flashy 'RE100 showroom' shown by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the diplomatic corps in Korea is seriously detached from the desert-like reality faced by the domestic manufacturing industry. Even if Kia AutoLand reduces carbon emissions by 20% with dry booths and installs up to 50MW of solar power on idle state-owned land, this is just a drop in the bucket to solve the overall shortage of renewable energy supply in South Korea. Sihwa SteelLand's rooftop solar power was also praised as an exemplary case, but blocked by structural regulatory barriers such as KEPCO's grid saturation problem and separation distance regulations, the vast majority of small and medium-sized enterprises cannot even think of implementing RE100. Covering up these structural contradictions and putting diplomats on a bus to show them only the rooftops of distribution complexes and state-of-the-art factories is close to an optical illusion to cover up the national energy security vacuum.
Furthermore, there is no cold report card anywhere on whether the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' 'industrial facility inspection,' which has continued every year since 2012 by changing only the signboards to nuclear power, batteries, and offshore wind power, has actually led to practical exports or order receipts for related companies. This time, too, it put forward only superficial figures that 16 diplomats from 15 countries showed high interest, but a concrete post-scenario on how this interest will lead to energy policy coordination or trade cooperation between nations is invisible. An annual event-style event that provides a one-way technical briefing to diplomats cannot guarantee the survival of our companies amid the huge wave of global supply chain reorganization.
In the end, this inspection inviting the diplomatic corps in Korea by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a specimen of exhibition administration complacent only in external achievements and securing promotion numbers. A showy eco-friendly infrastructure tour and one-off press release distribution alone cannot imprint Korea's clean energy industry capabilities on the world. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs must immediately stop media play that packages the 'energy transition' as if it has been achieved by mobilizing diplomats. Instead, it should cooperate with relevant domestic ministries to lay the institutional foundation for companies to procure renewable energy stably and affordably. Furthermore, it should concentrate its diplomatic power on building a practical government-to-government (G2G) trade negotiation table for establishing a clean hydrogen supply chain or global RE100 standards with the countries that participated in the inspection.
