Energy Efficiency R&D Program

The Energy Efficiency R&D Program is KETEP's route for lower-consumption, lower-emissions technology across industry, buildings, and transport. The public areas include motors, fluid machinery, industrial furnaces, carbon-free transition technology, zero-energy buildings, BEMS, EV mobility, charging infrastructure, and bidirectional energy efficiency. That gives the program a practical mandate rather than a broad climate label. It runs annually and uses the same Korean eligibility profile as the other KETEP calls, with companies, universities, nonprofits, and research organizations allowed and individuals excluded. The source set used here does not publish a standard award amount. The sector split is explicit: industrial, building, and transportation. Projects are strongest when they can show measured savings or emissions reduction in a named use case, such as retrofit work, new-build zero-energy systems, or EV charging infrastructure. The building work is especially tied to BEMS and smart management, while the transport side centers on mobility and bidirectional charging. That makes the program a good fit for applied efficiency work with a clear operating site in Korea.
