Insights into KT's Energy Renewability
In 2023, KT consumed a total of 23.34 million Gigajoules of energy across its operations. Of this total, 1.08% was sourced from renewable energy, either derived from natural resources like biofuels, biomass, or biogas, or generated using renewable technologies such as solar or wind power. The remaining 98.92% was classified as non-renewable energy, coming from fossil-based fuels such as coal, natural gas, or crude oil, or from non-renewable generation technologies like nuclear power. a
KT's Energy Renewability Rate
How much of KT's energy consumed is renewable?
In 2023, KT consumed a total of 23.34 million Gigajoules of energy, of which 1.08% was derived from renewable sources, including biofuels, biomass, biogas, solar, and wind power. a
This low level of renewable energy use highlights a heavy reliance on fossil fuels or other non-renewable sources, suggesting that KT has considerable room to improve its energy sustainability strategy.
Are KT's energy practices becoming more sustainable?
Since 2021, KT's total energy consumption increased by 5.23%, including a 1.71% increase in 2023, reflecting a sustained rise in overall energy demand. a
Over the same period, the share of renewable energy in KT's consumption increased by 4,384.11%, including a 3,334.68% increase in 2023, showing consistent progress in clean energy adoption. a
Overall, KT has seen rising energy demand, but has also made strong and consistent progress in increasing its reliance on renewable energy—mitigating the environmental impact of its growing consumption.

Insights into KT's Energy Consumption & Production Mix
In 2023, KT disclosed detailed information on both the sources and generation technologies of its consumed and produced energy This disclosure enables a clearer assessment of the KT's overall energy mix, its sourcing strategy, and its reliance on fossil fuels versus cleaner alternatives such as renewables and low-carbon technologies. a
KT's Energy Consumed by Sources and Technologies
What are the main sources and generation technologies behind KT's energy consumption?
In 2023, KT's total energy consumption was primarily sourced from a
- Electricity (Unspecified Source) (97.33%)
- Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) (1.31%)
- Diesel (0.78%)
How diverse is KT’s energy consumption mix?
In 2023, KT consumed energy from 8 different sources or generation technologies, indicating a highly concentrated energy mix, with Electricity (Unspecified Source) alone accounting for 97.33% of total consumption. a
What are the main sources or generation technologies used by KT to produce energy?
In 2023, KT's energy production came primarily from a
- Solar Energy (100%)
How diverse is KT’s energy production mix?
In 2023, KT produced energy using 1 different sources or generation technologies. The energy production mix is highly concentrated, with Solar Energy alone making up 100% of total output. a
KT's Energy Produced by Sources and Technologies
Insights into KT's Energy Inflows & Self-Sufficiency
In 2023, KT reported total energy inflows of 331,488 Gigajoules, which corresponds to the company's full energy needs, including energy consumed, redistributed, sold, or stored. This energy inflow was composed of 240,000 Gigajoules purchased from external suppliers and 91,488 Gigajoules generated through internal production. This corresponds to a production share of 27.6%, reflecting a 7,240.08% percentage point decrease from the previous year (2022) and a 7,240.08% percentage point decrease since 2021. a
The declining share of internally produced energy, both over the past year and compared to earlier years, suggests growing reliance on purchased energy. This trend may reflect cost-optimization decisions, external sourcing preferences, or a deprioritization of self-generation efforts.
