KEPCO, South Korea's dominant power utility, is poised to benefit from lower fuel prices due to President Trump's tariffs, boosting its profitability.

KEP should continue to deliver positive earnings on the back of drivers like operating leverage, a favorable change in generation mix, and lower energy-related costs.
