Changing charging cost

Rates for charging electric vehicles (EVs) will go up starting July as planned, according to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the Ministry of Environment. A special discount program was introduced by the state-run Korea Electric Power Corp. (Kepco) in 2017 to expand the EV market in the country. The cost will increase from the current 292.9 won ($0.23) per kilowatt-hour to 313.1 won per kilowatt-hour. EVs are being charged at a charging station in Gangnam District, southern Seoul on Wednesday. [YONHAP]
