South Korea's No. 1 steelmaker to make green energy a priority
SEOUL -- The incoming CEO of South Korean steelmaker Posco sees battery materials for electric vehicles as a new growth driver.
"We will focus on green energy operations such as battery materials in order to accelerate growth," said Choi Jeong-woo, who was previously CEO of chemical unit Posco Chemtech. He was appointed CEO at a special shareholders meeting Friday.
Choi said the company will reorganize some operations to better take advantage of synergies among the management team, planning on issuing a new management plan on his 100th day in office. He said group units making anode and cathode materials will be combined.
The company, South Korea's biggest steelmaker, will step up development and production of anode and cathode materials for batteries used in electric vehicles, and is considering entering the biotechnology business, Choi said.
