Korea Electric Power Corp.

Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO, ticker KEP) is South Korea’s largest integrated electric utility, responsible for generation, transmission and distribution across the domestic power system. Market cap is about $19.69 billion. As a largely state-owned business, KEPCO operates in a heavily regulated environment where tariffs, fuel costs and government energy policy materially affect revenues and margins. The company is also investing in renewable generation, grid modernisation and overseas projects as part of a broader energy transition. For investors, KEPCO can offer exposure to stable, utility-style cash flows and historically dividend-oriented returns, but it carries specific risks — notably substantial capital expenditure requirements, regulatory and political influence, commodity price and foreign-exchange exposure, and sensitivities to demand cycles.
