Trade Representative of the Russian Federation in the Republic of Korea Mikhail Bondarenko said : "The theme of the 22nd World Energy Congress sounds like" energy security today »(« Securing Tomorrow's Energy Today »), and it raises the issue of energy security - an issue that was discussed at such international forums as the G20 and APEC. Korea is 96% dependent on energy imports , and any increase in energy prices leads to additional costs and reduce the competitiveness of Korean products in the global market . Therefore to provide a reliable and stable supply of energy resources is very important for us. Cooperation in the field of electric power for Russia and Korea is one of the priority areas. Reaching agreements on issues of import - export of energy resources, energy equipment, technology sharing construction and operation of energy facilities, as well as improving energy efficiency will create the necessary basis for the transition sectors of both countries to a new level. In these circumstances, the crucial role is played by the exchange of information between all parties involved, that is to provide the most competent and reputable media industry with a broad coverage of the target audience in all categories. I am particularly pleased that now the Russian trade publications such as the Journal, " ELECTRIC POWER. Transmission and Distribution ", reached the highest international level and participate in major international events , providing interested parties up to date analysis on the latest trends in the power industry ."
