Introduction

Utilization Effects

Technical aspects

  • Infrastructure implementation for Korean technology intensity

    1. Electric power facility construction/operation-relevant experience and technology to be focused on KEPIC

  • Korea-localized support by use of Korean programs, technology and materials

    1. Independent operation of qualification certification program for nuclear field

    2. Support for practical use of Korean research and development products and securement of grounds for KS materials utilization

  • Small and medium business protection and advancement/p>

    1. With easy-to-understand reference standards, offers a model of convenient application to on-site workers

    2. Improvement of electric power workers' technology level and products' quality enhancement

Economic aspects

Electric power faciliy standardization

  • Securement and interpretation of 300 types of foreign standards and work load reduction

  • Quality improvement by designer, manufacurer and constructor's same quality system operation

Cost saving and process reduction

  • Cost saving by standardization, domestic certification and Korea-produced material use

  • Process reduction by quick solution of technology standard requirement problems

Improve the electric power facility standardization and porductivity

Globalization aspects

Expansion of foundation for KEPIC application in the global nuclear market by participating in MDEP [Multinational Design Evaluation Program] sponsored by OECD/NEA

  • Mutual recognition goal by harmonization of multi-national nuclear pressure device standards

  • Standards of only six countries: KEPIC Korea], ASME [USA], RCC-M [France], JSME [Japan], CSA [Canada], ENES [Russia]

  • Improvement of Korean companies' competitiveness in nuclear power plant and machinery exports

Securement of global standard agency's position by registration with ISO/IEC Information Center

  • Compliance with WTO/TBT Agreement's standard development process practice codes

  • One and only among Korean group standard agencies: Registered in Dec. 2001

  • Development equal to the global standards [ASME, IEEE, etc.]

Reflection of domestic technology in global standards

  • Registration of nuclear structure modulization technique [SC Structure]'s American Institute of Steel Construction [AISC] standards

  • Proposal for reflection of foreign technology standards [ASME Code] such as the nuclear power plant water pressure test, Post Weld Heat Treatment [PWHT], Heat-affected zone impact test improvement requirements
