Hyundai Cement seeks to build solar power plant

South Korean cement producer Hyundai Cement Co is looking to build a photovoltaic (PV) power plant at its existing cement facility in Dangyang.

The consortium of Hanil Cement and LK Investment Partners, which gained ownership of Hyundai Cement last month, is considering using some part of the company’s Danyang factory site in North Chungcheong Province to build a solar energy farm. It aims to improve profitability by replacing some aged facilities at the site with the green plant.
