Doosan completes works on fuel cell plant

Doosan Corp., an affiliate of machinery and construction equipment conglomerate Doosan Group, said Tuesday that it has completed the construction of a fuel cell plant in the country.

Doosan said it has spent a total of 40 billion won ($36 million) in building the plant in Iksan, some 250 kilometers south of Seoul, which will produce fuel cells worth 63 megawatts annually, the nation's largest capacity. The company already operates a fuel cell plant in the United States.

Earlier, the group pledged 73 billion won in the field to build the plant and expand its factory in the US.
