Demonstrating his commitment to international collaboration, Dr. Hong served as Chairman of the the East Asian Network for Marine Environment and Energy (EAMEN) and Vice Chairman of the IEA-OES Executive Committee. Presentation Title Marine Renewables and Beyond: Marine Green Energy Innovation toward Decarbonizing Era Date & Time Oct 22(Wed), 2025 / 11:00 - 11:30 (30') Marine renewable energy is emerging as a key solution in addressing the climate crisis and advancing the global transition to clean energy. In particular, offshore wind, wave, and tidal power are increasingly recognized as sustainable energy sources optimized for marine environments. This keynote presentation provides a comprehensive overview of the current status of these three marine renewable technologies by examining their technological maturity. It also offers an in-depth analysis of future global expansion trends and commercialization potential. In April 2025, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) officially approved the Goal-based Fuel Standard (GFS) during its 83rd session of the Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC). As a central instrument for achieving net-zero emissions from international shipping by 2050, GFS will require the widespread adoption of carbon-neutral fuels such as e-methanol and e-ammonia. The large-scale production of these synthetic fuels will require a massive supply of clean, zero-emission electricity, with marine renewables expected to play a strategic role. This presentation explores the value and potential of marine renewable energy as a foundational power source for supporting the decarbonization of the international maritime sector. It further discusses the role of marine energy technologies in shaping an integrated global energy-to-fuel ecosystem. In addition, it reviews the integration strategies of large-scale Energy Storage Systems (ESS) to address the intermittency of renewables, as well as prospect of Floating Nuclear Power Plant (FNPP) based on Small Modular Reactors (SMR).

Presentation Title U.S. New Maritime Security Strategy and Its Implications Date & Time Oct 22(Wed), 2025 / 13:00 - 13:20 (20') The second Trump administration in the United States imposed a 10% basic tariff on countries worldwide to protect domestic manufacturing and address trade imbalances. Additionally, it levied a reciprocal tariff of up to 145% on China, the country with the largest trade surplus with the U.S., later reducing it to 30% after bilateral negotiations in May. Beyond trade and commerce, the administration is also implementing a new maritime security strategy to curb China's maritime dominance and restore America's own. Two major initiatives under this strategy include the "2025 SHIPS Act" (April 30, 2025), which focuses on revitalizing the U.S. shipbuilding industry and expanding the merchant fleet, and the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) policy (April 17, 2025) imposing port entry fees on Chinese shipping companies and Chinese-built vessels. Through these measures, the U.S. aims to counter China's maritime influence, narrow the substantial gap between the two countries in terms of shipping fleets and manpower, and ultimately reclaim its maritime supremacy. The U.S. is expected to further intensify its maritime containment of China in the future, making it highly relevant to assess the impact of this new maritime security strategy on South Korea.
