Doosan Robotics invests $25.9m to acquire US automation firm ONExia
Korea's leading collaborative robotics manufacturer, Doosan Robotics, announced Monday that it will acquire ONExia, a US-based robotics engineering and advanced automation solutions provider, as part of its strategic push into artificial intelligence-driven robotics. On the same day, Doosan Robotics' board of directors approved a $25.9 million investment to acquire an 89.59 percent stake in the Pennsylvania-based firm. 'This merger and acquisition is expected to generate meaningful synergies by leveraging ONExia's leadership in US robotics solutions, securing a strategic foothold for local market expansion and internalizing data-driven artificial intelligence technologies,' said Kim Min-pyo, CEO of Doosan Robotics. Since its founding in 1984, ONExia has been engaged in the design, manufacturing and distribution of advanced automation systems across industries such as manufacturing, logistics and packaging. The company has developed strong capabilities in automation engineering, custom robot system development and integration, while continuously enhancing its expertise in combining software and hardware technologies, Doosan Robotics said. The acquisition is part of Doosan Robotics' broader initiative to accelerate its transition from a hardware-centric company to a leader in AI and software-driven intelligent robotics. To bolster its competitiveness in robotics software, Doosan is expanding its research and development efforts, particularly in AI and humanoid technologies. The company is also reorganizing its R&D structure to focus more heavily on software innovation. 'To become a next-generation intelligent robotics solution provider in the era of physical AI, we will continue to restructure our organization, enhance our R&D environment and pursue strategic mergers and acquisitions backed by bold investments,' Kim added.

Samsung SDI beats rivals in W1tr government ESS bid
Samsung SDI has secured the lion's share of the 1 trillion won ($725 million) worth of South Korean energy storage systems up for government bidding, leveraging its technological prowess in the advanced battery cells. According to media reports Monday, Samsung SDI won bids for six out of Korea's eight ESS projects, outpacing its domestic rivals — LG Energy Solution and SK On. This was the first round of ESS construction project bids overseen by the government, and covered a total of 3,240 MWh of energy storage in eight regions, including South and North Jeolla Province, North Gyeongsang Province, Gangwon Province and Jeju Island, by the end of 2026. Samsung SDI's dominance in the bidding, accounting for 2,790 MWh of the total storage, was driven by its strengths in 'non-price criteria,' which made up 40 percent of the evaluation. These criteria assessed technological capability and contributions to the domestic industry — areas where Samsung SDI stood out. Among other things, the company produces most of its ESS battery cells at its Ulsan plant, backed by a robust local supply chain, and showcased its latest thermal safety technology as part of the bid. Samsung SDI was reported to have highlighted its thermal propagation prevention solutions by integrating 'enhanced direct injection' technology — its third-generation ESS safety advancement — into the Samsung Battery Box ESS product. This method swiftly reduces the temperature at the heat source in the battery cell after spraying a fire extinguishing agent through pipes connected to the ESS battery module. This innovation prevents heat spread to neighboring battery cells in the ESS device more effectively than the company's previous solutions, which used either a fire-suppressing sheet or directly injected a fire extinguishing agent into the cells. Samsung SDI's SBB has also received global safety certifications, including recognition from UL, a US-based safety certification organization. Industry watchers say Samsung SDI's win in the domestic ESS project is notable as it was accomplished using its high-capacity nickel cobalt aluminum batteries, as opposed to the increasingly popular lithium iron phosphate batteries introduced by its rivals. LFP battery cells are cheaper and are generally considered to be more stable than NCA cells. LG Energy Solution, a pioneer of the ESS LFP battery sector, started mass production of LFP cells in its Michigan plant last month, while forging a 1,000 MWh supply deal from Poland's state-run power company. SK On has completed prototype development earlier this year. However, LG Energy Solution — which previously won 200 billion won and 830 billion won ESS projects for Jeju Island and the Korea Electric Power Corp. — secured two projects in this bid, for Pyoseon in Jeju and Gwangyang in South Jeolla Province. SK On did not secure any contracts in this bid. The results of the first ESS bids will be finalized if no objections are raised by Thursday. A second round of competitive bidding for new contracts is scheduled for the latter half of the year, with further details to be announced by the Korea Power Exchange.

Korea pitches multibillion-dollar shipbuilding plan to US: reports
Seoul says MASGA details unconfirmed as talks with Washington continue Korea has proposed a multibillion-dollar project reportedly named Make American Shipbuilding Great Again, or MASGA, to the United States as Seoul makes an all-out effort to cut a better tariff deal with Washington ahead of the US-set deadline for tariff talks on Thursday, according to media reports on Monday. Citing multiple unnamed sources, the reports said Kim Jung-kwan, Korea's minister of trade, industry and energy, presented the MASGA project and Korea's vision for shipbuilding cooperation with the US during ministerial-level talks with US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick in New York on Friday. According to the reports, the MASGA proposal, named after US President Donald Trump's campaign slogan "Make America Great Again," offers a comprehensive package deal that includes large-scale investments in the US by Korean shipbuilders and financial support measures from the government such as loans and guarantees. The reports said the Korean government is considering participation in the MASGA project by state-run financial institutions such as the Export-Import Bank of Korea and the Korea Trade Insurance Corporation. They added that Lutnick, who is considered a key figure in finalizing the US tariff deal with Korea, responded positively to the proposal. However, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy later said in a press release that the reported details of the MASGA proposal have not been confirmed as the negotiations are still ongoing, advising media outlets to take a careful approach when reporting on the trade talks between Seoul and Washington. In a press release on Saturday following the ministerial-level trade talks, Seoul's presidential office said it had reconfirmed strong US interest in shipbuilding cooperation, explaining that the two sides committed to working together on an agreement in the tariff negotiations. Korea's shipbuilding sector has been regarded as the country's unique leverage in the tariff talks with the US as its world-class capabilities can contribute to the Trump administration's goal of reviving American shipbuilding. Two of Korea's leading shipbuilding conglomerates -- HD Hyundai and Hanwha Group -- have already been ramping up their investments in the US and bolstering partnerships with American companies in the shipbuilding sector. HD Hyundai joined hands with US shipyard operator Edison Chouest Offshore to build medium-sized container vessels at the American company's shipyard by 2028. Hanwha Philly Shipyard, which was acquired by Hanwha Ocean and Hanwha System for $100 million last year, secured a contract to build a liquefied natural gas carrier, marking the first US-ordered, export-market-viable LNG carrier in nearly 50 years.
