[브레이크뉴스=주윤한 기자] 거창군은 오는 30일부터 다음 달 13일까지, 소상공인의 경쟁력 강화를 위한 ‘2026년 소상공인 소규모 경영환경 개선’과 ‘디지털 인프라 지원’ 사업을 동시에 추진한다고 밝혔다.
첫 번째 전략은 '기본기 회복'이다. 창업한 지 6개월(공고일 기준)이 지난 소상공인이라면 ‘소규모 경영환경 개선 사업’을 노려볼 만하다.
오래된 간판을 트렌디한 디자인으로 교체하거나, 칙칙한 내·외부 인테리어를 뜯어고칠 수 있다. 특히 고객 만족도에 직결되는 화장실 개선 공사나 안전시스템 설치 등 노후 시설물 교체 비용을 지원받아 쾌적한 영업 환경을 조성할 수 있다.
두 번째 전략은 '스마트 상점'으로의 도약이다. ‘디지털 인프라 지원 사업’은 신청일 현재 영업 중인 모든 소상공인이 대상이다. 이는 인건비 상승으로 인한 구인난을 해소하고, MZ세대 등 젊은 고객층을 유입시키기 위한 필수적인 조치로 풀이된다. 단, 기기 구입비만 지원되며 소프트웨어 비용은 제외된다.
두 사업 모두 공급가액의 70% 범위 내에서 업체당 최대 200만 원까지 지원한다. 나머지 30%와 지원 한도 초과분, 부가세는 사업주가 부담해야 한다. 도입 비용이 상대적으로 저렴하면서도 효율이 높은 QR오더 시스템의 경우, 예외적으로 공급가액의 90%까지 지원 폭을 넓혀 영세 소상공인의 부담을 최소화했다.
신청을 희망하는 소상공인은 오는 1월 30일부터 2월 13일까지 거창군청 경제기업과를 직접 방문하거나 우편으로 서류를 제출하면 된다.

A 3.5GW 'Nuclear Renaissance' Begins... Signals the Leap Forward for the 'SMR Foundry'
Doosan Energy and 150 Partners Secure '10-Year Work Order'... "Uncertainty Has Been Eradicated"
On the 26th, the government finalized the 11th Basic Plan for Electricity Supply and Demand, which focuses on the construction of two new large-scale nuclear power plants and one small modular reactor (SMR). Changwon Special City immediately welcomed the move on the 28th, stating, "The local nuclear power industry ecosystem has achieved a complete revival and a foundation for a leap forward."
This announcement marks Korea's official entry into the rapidly growing global SMR market, further brightening the future of Changwon, the "heart of nuclear power equipment."
▲ Two 'APR1400' units and the first commercialization of 'K-SMR'... Total Capacity: 3.5 GW
The new nuclear power plant capacity included in the 11th Basic Electricity Plan amounts to a total of 3.5 GW (gigawatts).
The "APR1400," the flagship model of Korea's nuclear power plants (1.4 GW per unit), is a strong candidate. It is targeted for completion between 2037 and 2038 and will serve as a base power source to meet the surge in electricity demand driven by the expansion of artificial intelligence (AI) and data centers. The first commercialized model of Korea's independently developed innovative SMR (i-SMR), consisting of four 170 MW (megawatt) modules per unit, is scheduled for construction by 2035. Each unit will have a capacity of 0.7 GW.
The government has decided to maintain the original plan after conducting public opinion polls and other public discussions. This decision signifies an end to the debate over nuclear phase-out and a policy commitment to "normalizing the nuclear power ecosystem."
▲ Securing a solid momentum to overcome the manufacturing slump
The reason Changwon Special City welcomes this decision is clear. Changwon is home to approximately 150 small and medium-sized partner companies that supply core equipment, such as pumps, valves, and control and instrumentation, led by Doosan Energy, Korea's sole main equipment manufacturer.
SMRs are particularly noteworthy. Doosan Energy has already secured a leading position in the "SMR foundry" (contract manufacturing) sector through agreements with leading global SMR companies, including NuScale Power. The government's decision to build domestic SMRs is expected to serve as a powerful reference point for Changwon companies seeking export track records.
▲ Expecting a strengthened long-term supply chain, not just a one-time order
The local business community anticipates this decision will provide a stable supply of work for more than 15 years. Considering the production time for major equipment for large nuclear power plants and the SMR commercialization schedule, a long-term trickle-down effect is expected, spanning from design to manufacturing and construction.
Jang Geum-yong, Acting Mayor of Changwon Special City, stated, "The government's announcement is significant in that it resolves uncertainty surrounding nuclear power policy and establishes a predictable environment." He added, "Changwon, with its strong foundation in the K-nuclear supply chain ecosystem, will continue to collaborate with industry, academia, and research to strengthen the capabilities of local companies and ensure stable business participation."
Meanwhile, the government plans to begin site selection this year, and Changwon City plans to activate a collaborative network among industry, academia, and research to enable local companies to immediately pursue contracts.
