Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) is presenting its vision for a carbon-neutral future city at the 2026 National Land and Transportation Technology Exhibition in Seoul. Under the theme 'The Tomorrow of Carbon Neutrality as Imagined by LH,' the corporation's special exhibition highlights cutting-edge residential and urban technologies based on clean energy.
The exhibition is designed to guide visitors through a 'journey of carbon neutrality starting from a single tree,' incorporating landscape elements, digital experiences, physical displays, and a media wall. It is divided into five zones: Clean Energy, Virtual Zero-Energy House Experience, Real Zero-Energy House Experience, Modular Housing, and Carbon Neutrality Experience.
Visitors can explore LH's 'Energy Highway' concept, which connects new towns, industrial complexes, and apartments with renewable energy sources. The 'My ZERO+ HOME' zone allows participants to design zero-energy buildings by selecting various energy-saving technologies like solar power, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), heat pumps, and fuel cells. The 'ZERO+ HOME Exhibition Hall' showcases actual products and operational methods for zero-energy housing, part of a national R&D project.
Further interactive exhibits include the 'Building Houses Like Lego' zone, offering a virtual assembly experience for modular and precast concrete (PC) housing. The 'Learning Carbon Reduction with Your Feet' zone uses participatory games to encourage everyday carbon-saving actions. Demonstrations of autonomous patrol robots and delivery robots operating within housing complexes are also featured.
Additionally, the LH Land and Housing Research Institute (LHRI) will host the '2026 LHRI Together Concert' on June 25th, featuring presentations on transitioning to carbon-absorbing cities and the future of zero-energy housing by 2050. Jeong Chang-mo, head of LHRI, emphasized the exhibition's goal of making R&D achievements accessible and allowing visitors to experience future housing technologies firsthand.
We have organized the exhibition to easily introduce LHRI's national R&D achievements, including zero-energy housing technology, and to allow visitors to directly experience future housing technologies.
