Energy in Action! — renewables

The Hong Kong Energy Savings Plan policy sets a pathway for driving energy saving through a combination of educational, social, economic and regulatory means, especially for buildings and inhabitants to become highly energy efficient by 2025 (reducing energy intensity 40% from 2005 base levels).  To achieve this goal, the government has introduced several measures, including the promotion of energy efficient buildings through retrofits as well as new construction standards.  The plan also promotes the use of renewable energy sources. For example, the government has introduced financial incentives for businesses that invest in energy efficient technologies such as LED lighting, building automation, efficient HVAC systems and solar panels to name a few. Measurement and Verification and the validation of energy efficiency savings will play an important role in helping Hong Kong meet its energy reduction goals.
