Seoul: Following its compatriot shipbuilders the Korea Register of Shipping (KR) will make a full-fledged entry into the business of certifying new energies. KR plans to boost the ratio occupied by non-ship classification businesses, centering on new energy, in its total sales to 40% by 2020.
In January this year, KR inaugurated its Energy/Environment Business Unit, recruiting 20 engineers holding doctorate degrees. [27/05/09]
