In the final installment of our series on North Korea's energy production, we dive into the country's use of wind and tidal power. Both wind and wave resources in North Korea have the potential to make an impact on the country's energy generation and create more consistent access to electricity.
Both wind and wave resources in North Korea have the potential to make an impact on the country's energy generation and create more consistent access to electricity. Despite this, few larger-scale wind farms—and only one tidal power station—contribute to the North's energy supply.
North Korea has electric power transmission organizations in provinces and cities throughout the country, responsible for regulating electricity distribution and manufacturing renewable energy generators such as wind turbines, in addition to running other solar and wind installations.
However, as noted in previous installations of this energy series, North Korea's recent drive to bolster renewable energy capacity has primarily focused on solar and hydropower, despite its capacity for wind energy generation. North Korea's coastlines and overall mountainous terrain lend themselves relatively well to the generation of wind power.
On Friday, Daily NK reported that upgrades to existing cellular base stations had begun in October and tied the move to the party congress call. The upgrades are being done with secondhand
According to local news site Daily NK, authorities have completed the construction of 4G cell towers in some areas of the country – with the goal of constructing over 80% of planned cell

In short, North Korea is recruiting subscribers by stressing that 4G users no longer need to worry about signal strength. “I understand that [4G services] are in use only in the central districts
Although the region''s mountainous terrain may be an obstacle for future development of renewable energy infrastructure, these initial annual mean solar and wind power density results
It appears that North Korea has been working on constructing a 4G network in Pyongan Nam-do Province from 2023 to 2024. However, the scope of the 4G network construction is unknown.
North Koreans though may have limited abilities to use 4G on different brands. They apparently can use the 4G network on domestically manufactured phones from Jindallae, Hwawon,
