Sustainability Report 2011
New Energy Developments
In addition to our clean coal activities
we are also looking for new and more
diverse ways to produce clean fuel. In
2010, ECO set up a new-energy research
and development centre and in addition
to this in-house resource, we also work
in close partnership with a number of
research and technology institutes both
locally and internationally. Actively
interested in the use of biomass
energy with a particular focus on
using renewable resources and waste
materials, we are exploring opportunities
to use biogas generated from Hong
Kong’s potential Organic Waste
Treatment Facilities (OWTF). While
these new developments will define
our business and sustainability into the
future, our goal is also to make sure that
they will make an active contribution to
the world of clean energy.
