BEC EnviroSeries Conference Nov 2023: Financing Climate Transition and Delivering Net-zero Innovations for Hong Kong
While countries have pledged net zero by mid-century, scientific evidence informs us that global greenhouse gas emissions and temperature trajectory continue to rise, and almost every region of the world is experiencing unprecedented adverse climate impacts. Transition must happen at all levels from national to local governments, financial markets, the private sector and individuals. At corporate level, climate-related standards and tools are emerging, more responsible companies are setting and validating science-aligned targets and action plans. However, the bigger question is how we can ensure just and systematic transition would take place in the next 20-30 years with adequate financing and without disruption.

CPD Event (Rescheduled) - From Concept to Practical Application: Exploring Cutting-Edge Lighting Innovations for Net-Zero City
In line with Hong Kong's ambitious 2050 carbon neutrality target, the implementation of sustainable lighting solutions takes centre stage. Reducing carbon emissions in both new and existing buildings is a crucial step towards achieving zero-carbon readiness. Specifically, the adoption of sustainable practices in the realm of lighting, including lamp source replacement and optimised management systems, presents significant energy-saving opportunities for commercial and industrial buildings. By embracing these measures, Hong Kong can make a meaningful contribution to reducing CO2 emissions and forging a greener, more sustainable future that aligns with national and global environmental objectives.

Humanity–Climate–Nature: A Future Museum Curators’ Exhibition
This exhibition features the result of an 18-month community engagement project (2021–2022), ECF Mobilizing Community Climate Action by Future Museum Curators. The project is supported by the Environment and Conservation Fund (ECF). It recruited 70 secondary school students and, through a unique model of experiential and problem-based learning, equipped them with the knowledge and skills to become ‘Future Museum Curators’, and inspire action on climate change and sustainable development through exhibitions.
Earlier this year, the well-trained Future Museum Curators presented the results in 10 virtual exhibitions dealing with various sustainability challenges, such as climate change, carbon reduction and waste management. After public voting and a final assessment by a panel of expert judges, the winning Best Future Museum Curators teams were selected to work with the MoCC on a new physical exhibition on a theme of their choice, to be presented at the MoCC. The ‘Humanity–Climate–Nature: A Future Museum Curators’ Exhibition’ explores how human activity gives rise to sustainability challenges and calls for immediate climate action from the community to tackle these threats.

BEC EnviroSeries Conference 2020: Urban Transport on the Move: Connecting Policies, People and Business Opportunities
Transport is an important sector in Hong Kong – it enables the movements of people and goods, facilitates Hong Kong’s efficient commercial and business functions, and contributes to Hong Kong’s economic performance. At the personal level, transport supports people’s mobility needs and gets them connected.
However, unchecked growth in motorisation, over-reliance on fossil fuel vehicles and the car-centric city planning culture will exacerbate the transport sector’s impact on the environment. There are calls for rethinking the role of transport in the urban landscape and how cities should be planned so as to maintain the mobility functions on the one hand, and to minimise externalities such as air pollution, greenhouse gases emissions and the loss of public space on the other.
With COVID-19 and climate change, these questions become even more valid and pressing. It is timely and necessary for policy makers, the business sector and the general public to explore how COVID-19 and decarbonsiation will reshape urban mobility. There are opportunities to respond to the changing mobility need of people and delivery of goods as well as to transform transport operation for better efficiency and enhanced resilience.

Is Hong Kong Ready to Ride on China’s Carbon Neutral Pledge?
At the United Nations General Assembly on 22 September 2020, President Xi Jinping made a pledge that China would achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. China’s commitment to an absolute carbon reduction target has brought positivity and fresh impetus to the global climate discussion and initiatives. Many are keen to find out how China could become carbon neutral in 40 years and more so on lessons to be learned. In Hong Kong, as we are working on the city’s long-term decarbonisation target, what does China’s ambition mean for us?
In the webinar, experts in public policy, energy and climate change and business leaders will share their thoughts on China’s pledge, the impact on climate actions worldwide, and the implications on Hong Kong’s decarbonisation strategy and business action on climate change.

Green Sense No Air Con Night 2020
Big changes starting with one single move. All can take action on easing the Global Warming. While turning on the air con at home on hot days, are you aware of heating up the outdoor temperature? Hong Kong consumed 4.48 billion kWh of electricity in 2019, of which air-conditioning made up around 30% (1.34 billion kWh of electricity) of the total, that equates releasing 7.44 million tonnes of carbon emission to the atmosphere. If we rely on indoor air conditioning when the weather gets hotter, a vicious positive feedback is formed in warming the planet. Using less air conditioning is truly a way in cooling the Earth.
All are welcome to join the “No Air Con Night 2020″ on 9th October (suggesting from 7 pm). The first step of change can be taken by turning off the air con at home together.
United Nations' SDGs and the Private Sector
The United Nations has mapped out 17 SDGs for all the countries to work towards by 2030 so that there will be a better and more sustainable future for everyone. Currently, governments from around the world have setup various relevant domestic priorities as their contribution towards this SDGs initiative.
Government is an important actor to help lead the society and spearhead key relevant priorities but other actors within the community are as important to ensure the successful delivery and implementation of these priorities. The private sector is important within society's economic, social and cultural fabric, and their role and contribution would be critical to ensure the success of achieving these sustainable development goals.
UN Climate Week Webinar 2020
Looking Ahead: A Year for Action towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
The United Nations (UN) Climate Week inspires individuals and organizations to become part of the momentum created by the global climate agreement in Paris. It is a collaborative platform where both governments and non-governmental organizations stakeholders gather to address the gamut of relevant climate issues under one umbrella. This webinar is co-sponsored by the American Alliance of Museums and the Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change of The Chinese University of Hong Kong.
Museums have enormous carbon footprints. COVID-19 led to the postponement of COP 26 to 2021. UN Climate Week 2020 provides a unique opportunity for the museum community to accelerate peer learning, expedite ongoing initiatives and jumpstart needed programs. Come listen to this global panel of experts to celebrate what they are doing in their own region and their own community.
BEC Low Carbon Charter Workshop: How to reduce emissions along the company value chain
The BEC Low Carbon Charter has mobilised 71 companies and organisations across all sectors in Hong Kong in pledging to set and achieve decarbonisation targets towards a sustainable and low carbon future since its launch in March 2019. Most companies would choose to focus on reducing their scope 1 and 2 emissions at the beginning of their decarbonisation journey. However, in order to limit global average temperature rise within 2°C to avoid the worst and irreversible effects of climate change, there is a mounting urgency for companies to also decarbonise their value chains, especially for companies with a substantial part of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions lie outside their own operations.
Scope 3 emission is more complex, so where do you start? How do you set a robust yet achievable scope 3 target, and how do you engage with your business partners to decarbonise? The webinar will feature an introduction on scope 3 emissions. Industry peers will share experience and best practice on value chain decarbonisation. Topics like scope 3 target-setting and emission reduction, as well as stakeholder engagement will be discussed during the session.
If you wish to achieve deeper decarbonisation or know more about value chain decarbonisation, come join us and take part in the discussion.

Science Based Targets in Reality – The Swire Coca-Cola Case Study
Setting Science Based Targets in reality remains challenging for many companies, who find themselves challenged by both the depth of the carbon targets required and the long term strategic nature of the target setting exercise. However, another picture is emerging – that going through the SBT process unlocks innovative new approaches that help manage material environmental risks and strengthen the core business along with reducing the carbon footprint.
This webinar introduces the approach taken by Swire Coca-Cola in the context of the food and beverage sector and will look at:
• The business case behind SCC’s SBT which is one of the most ambitious in the sector
• The major drivers behind the carbon reduction strategy
• The key implementation challenges
• Insights for other Hong Kong and Asian businesses interested in SBTs and in particular those participating in the BEC Low Carbon Charter

Opening Ceremony of the ‘Eating Greener’ Exhibition
Opening Ceremony of the ‘Eating Greener’ Exhibition According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the livestock sector plays a significant role in climate change. Greenhouse gas emissions along livestock supply chains represents about 14% of the world’s human-induced emissions. In addition, research shows that Hong Kong has one of the highest meat consumptions per capita in the world at 664g/day/capita, with pork and beef consumed the most, which is nine times higher than the UK. Excessive meat consumption places a heavy burden on the environment, and therefore there is a need to educate the public to embrace the importance of making green choices.
Supported by the Environment and Conservation Fund, the new exhibition is one of the signature events of the two-year ECF ‘The Drama of Climate Change and a Low-carbon Future’. With the aid of infographics and art installations, the exhibition reveals how our dietary habits and climate change are closely interlinked, and promotes a low-carbon lifestyle and sustainable development. 4 July 2019, 3:00 pm Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change, Yasumoto International Academic Park 8/F, The Chinese University of Hong Kong CUHK Jockey Club Initiative Gaia, The Chinese University of Hong Kong http://www.mocc.cuhk.edu.hk/en-gb/news/2019/460-opening-ceremony-of-the-eating-greener-exhibition

Technical Seminar on Hydrogen Economy in Hong Kong
With the increasing public awareness for the climate change and global warming arising from fossil fuels, researchers and policy makers have already put their focus on the development of clean and renewable energy sources. Remarkable advancements of the renewable technologies are made in recent years while new systems with better efficiency and lower cost are developed to compete with the fossil fuel. However, the renewable energy productions are usually site specific, intermittent, and thus not reliable for instantaneous supply. Hydrogen is identified as one of the potential energy carriers for future energy supply which can resolve the limitation for renewable energy production. Hydrogen is clean, renewable and harmless during the entire production and disposal cycle. In the technical talks, some oversea and local speakers are invited to share their area of excellence in hydrogen economy while their insights in application of the emerging technologies will be discussed.

Technical Seminar – Urbanization and Climate Change in Asia: Impacts and Adaptation
During the last twenty to thirty years, due to rapid economic growth, there has been extensive urbanization of areas of agricultural and rural land in many Asian countries.
These changes have substantially modified the exchanges of heat, moisture and energy between the land surface and the atmosphere, as well as releasing additional heat and pollutants into the atmosphere. Furthermore, in general, appropriate holistic planning of these urban developments has been minimal because many of these cities have been built over a short period of time.
The consequences of this urban expansion impacts both the global and regional climate, with cities in Asia suffering significantly in terms of climate hazards now and in the future.
In this talk, Prof. Chan from City University of Hong Kong will show how urbanization and global climate change can modify the regional climate, using examples from the Pearl River Delta of China and other mega-cities. He will discuss the probable effects of such climate hazards and the potential actions that can be undertaken by governments to reduce the consequences of such impacts.

Technical Seminar: An Integrated Design Approach for Energy Conservation and Carbon Emission Reduction in Tall Buildings
The HKSAR government has targeted to reduce the building energy intensity by 40% in 2025 and the carbon intensity by 50-60% in 2020. Developing energy-efficient and low-carbon buildings is considered as an important direction to achieve the governmental goals for substantial energy conservation and carbon emission reduction. In this seminar, the speaker will share an integrated approach for designing energy-efficient and low-carbon green buildings in the high-rise urban environment, taking into consideration of operation energy and carbon from daily usage as well as embodied energy and carbon from construction materials. Case studies on application of the proposed approach for low carbon materials, structural form designs, and operation energy savings will be shared during the session.
Technical Seminar: Coastal Challenges to Flood Management in times of Climate Change
Super-Typhoon Mangkhut 2018 caused high storm surges resulting in serious flooding in many low-lying coastal areas in Hong Kong. This reminds us of the inadequacy of our flood management infrastructure which has been well developed mainly for inland areas subject to rainfall induced floods. At the same time, with indisputable Climate Change, the mean sea levels are rising and storm surges will also be increased by more frequent Super-Typhoons due to increasingly warm Pacific Ocean temperatures. This seminar will share the Speaker’s insights into the coastal challenges to flood management in times of Climate Changes, while addressing coastal flood mitigation measures including emergency evacuation based on real-time sea level forecasting (by combining storm surge and astronomical tide predictions), coastal polders, storm surge barriers and floating structures.

Workshop on Renewable Energy and Feed-in-tariff in Hong Kong
HKU was the pioneer in investigating the technical aspects on grid-connection of small renewable energy systems. Various experiments and pilot study were conducted at HKU before the Hong Kong Government published a set of technical guidelines on grid-connection. Also, a pilot project was funded by the ITC to install three different kinds of photovoltaic technologies at the S.K.H. Kei Wai (MaWan) Primary School. There is much experience built upon those pilot projects and study regarding the technical details of grid-connection of Renewable Energy (RE) systems. Although much of the information had been published, it was not well disseminated to the local engineers in a systematic way. With the imminent effect of feed-in-tariff in 2018, the number of grid-connect RE systems in Hong Kong is expected to grow significantly in the coming years, and hence the need to transfer the knowledge to community will be valuable to the industry and local community. The workshop will deliver information on different aspects, including the technical requirements on grid connection of renewable energy systems, relevant policies, the financial arrangement, etc.

Technical Visit to Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Plant at Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Hospital
Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Hospital is the first hospital in Hong Kong to adopt an environmentally friendly system, where landfill gases are utilized to fuel the combined heat and power (CHP) system to generate electricity and supply steam and hot water for various hospital facilities. Not only electricity costs for the hospital are saved, the system also helps reducing carbon emission effectively. The technical visit organized by HKIE will allow participants to learn about the smart usage of the CHP system, the benefits of distributed energy system and social engagement on sustainability.
Public Policy Forum on Economic Opportunities of Climate Change
Climate mitigation and adaptation are often understood to be reluctant responses to climate change, as a society is obliged to redirect resources that could have been used for other purposes. Because climate change is a genuinely global environmental problem, countries are often passive about using domestic resources for mitigation. The international climate negotiations that have been conducted in the past two-and-a-half decades have been bumpy and have encountered many setbacks. The most recent dramatic reversal occurred in 2017 when President Trump pulled the United States out of the Paris Agreement.
However, economic opportunities could also emerge in our response to climate change. New industries, such as wind turbines and solar PV, have grown to provide millions of jobs worldwide. Hong Kong is positioned to benefit from the global climate efforts. These new industries demand financial and legal services as well as innovations. Hong Kong could strategically utilize climate change to strengthen its current economic pillars and nurture new ones.
Towards achieving the above objective, the forum will invite outstanding scholars from both overseas and Hong Kong to share their insights on such economic opportunities and possible ways of capitalizing on them. Since all countries and governments around the world are facing significant challenges in this policy area, this theme will make the experiences and cases in the forum highly relevant and useful to a large number of participants in policymaking and research.
The forum is open to the press and public.

1. Project Summary
A. This is a continuation of the 2015/16 "Mission Healthy Greens – Diana:Star Lite Star Bright" project that had successfully installed LED T8 lamps and LED light bulbs free of charge for families living in public housing estates within the Wong Tai Sin District. As of July 2016, a total of 1,168 families have benefited from this project and saved 114,443 kWh of electricity per annum, which is equivalent to a reduction of 62 tonnes of Carbon Dioxide per annum or ~HKD $120 electricity cost savings per family per annum.
2. Key Project Activities
A. Continuing our support of the Government's 2030+ target of reducing the city's carbon intensity index by 65-70%. Demonstrating that it is possible to help residents to switch to energy-efficient lighting equipment, save energy and reduce their carbon footprint.
B. We estimate the second year project will help 1,350 families to save 132,000 kWh of electricity per annum, which is equivalent to a reduction of 71 tonnes of carbon dioxide.
C. The scope of the project will expand to include three Districts: Wong Tai Sin, Kwun Tong and Shum Shui Po.

Following the issuance of Energy Saving Plan and Climate Action Plan 2030+ by the Environment Bureau, the HKSAR Government is targeting to reduce the energy intensity by 40% by 2025 using 2005 as the base year. Traditionally, good indoor air quality means more energy consumption but with the technology advancement, energy can be saved as well as providing good IAQ. Our speakers will discuss the technology to achieve good IAQ and energy saving simultaneously. From research to design and application with the ultimate aim to reduce the energy consumption without sacrifice the level of comfort and indoor environment.

Energy Saving Charter 2016
Promoting energy saving is a linchpin of our efforts in combating climate change. In Hong Kong, buildings account for about 90% of our electricity consumption, representing over 60% of greenhouse gas emissions. As the community plays an indispensable role when it comes to energy conservation, we will be launching an Energy Saving Charter in June 2016 to foster close partnership among the Government, business sector and non-governmental organisations for a community-wide sector specific campaign to save energy.
Since 2012, we have stepped up efforts in energy conservation by expanding the Charter scheme to other sectors. During June to September 2015, more than 3,000 premises of participating organisations, including over 150 shopping malls, 260 office buildings, 620 shops, 1,200 offices, 420 residential buildings / housing estates and 360 premises of Non-governmental Organisations (NGOs) signed up to the Charter.
This year, while appealing for the continuous support from shopping malls, office buildings, shops, offices, residential buildings / housing estates and premises of NGOs for making the same pledge, we would like to step up efforts in energy conservation by expanding the scope of the Charter and extending invitation to primary and secondary schools, and tertiary institutions for joining the Charter.
We would appreciate your support in the following respects for Energy Saving Charter 2016 with the scope:-
a) to maintain an average indoor temperature between 24-26°C during the summer months from June to September in 2016;
b) to switch off electrical appliances when not in use from June 2016 to May 2017; and
c) to procure energy efficient appliances from June 2016 to May 2017.
Energy Saving Championship Scheme
As the community plays an indispensable role when it comes to energy conservation, we would like to appeal for supports from shopping malls, office buildings, residential buildings/ housing estates, primary and secondary schools, and tertiary education institutions by participating in the "Energy Saving Championship Scheme" (the Scheme) and setting targets to reduce your energy consumption comparable to or even exceeding Government targets, and to promote green building design and management as well.
The Scheme is to recognise leading organisations in the adoption of energy efficient technologies and equipment, application of operational optimisation of energy consuming systems (i.e. retro-commissioning), development of best practices in energy management and promotion of energy saving among tenants and occupants. Champions of each category will be invited as role models to share experience on application of energy efficient technologies and practices through visits or seminars for the trades.
We look forward to the concerted efforts of the Government and the community in promoting a healthy, liveable and sustainable environment in Hong Kong.

BEC’s Low Carbon Hong Kong Report Launch Event - Supporting Business to Set
The Paris Agreement is a game-changer. 197 countries across the world committed to the overarching objective to keep global temperature rise below 2°C, with carbon neutrality in the second half of the century. However, for the Agreement to be effective, businesses need to set targets and reduce their emissions to meet the overarching objective.
As part of BEC Climate Change Business Forum Advisory Group’s Low Carbon Hong Kong project, this report aims to convey to our members and the wider business community why it is important for them to set carbon reduction targets in line with this 2°C maximum. It explains the extent of the change needed across a number of key Hong Kong sectors to achieve this goal, and the methodologies available for setting these targets. It aims to support Hong Kong businesses keep up with the transition that is now underway, and play their part in achieving this critical goal.
In this event, you will learn more about:
Why should businesses set 2°C carbon reduction targets?
How far and how fast do we need to reduce our emissions for a 2°C maximum?
What are the methodologies available for setting long-term targets?
How can you initiate this process within your company?

Renewable Energy–How can it thrive in Hong Kong?
With the overarching imperative of the Paris Agreement to reach net zero carbon emissions by the middle of the century, transitioning to an ultra-low carbon electricity market is vital. Renewable energy (RE) development, including solar power, has a significant role to play in achieving this transition. The Hong Kong Government launched its new Climate Action Plan 2030+ on 20 January, which included a target to reduce the carbon intensity of the economy by 65-70% by 2030 (stated to be equivalent to a 26-36% absolute reduction) and said that it was ready to optimise the introduction of RE in a more systematic manner with the Government taking the lead. BEC, WWF and Hong Kong Baptist University's Asian Energy Studies Centre bring together government, business and NGOs to facilitate a dialogue, on policy measures and actions that can be introduced in the city to facilitate an energy transition, with a focus on optimisation of renewable energy.
