This one-hour session will explore how U.S.–Korea cooperation in energy innovation can support the administration’s goal of strengthening American energy dominance while reinforcing long-term energy security and industrial competitiveness. As electricity demand rises due to advanced manufacturing, AI infrastructure, and supply-chain reshoring, the discussion will examine how collaboration with trusted allies can help expand reliable energy supply, modernize infrastructure, and reduce system bottlenecks. The conversation will highlight the role of Korea’s research institutions, including the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER), in advancing technologies that enhance grid resilience, improve efficiency, and support scalable deployment across the energy system.
