Is Hong Kong suitable for solar energy projects?

An examination of the available land on a map of Hong Kong (see Figure 2) shows that in the urban areas like those on Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, it is difficult to find suitable locations for large-scale solar energy projects. However, the countrysides and new towns are potential candidates for developing solar energy systems.

Why is the government promoting solar energy in Hong Kong?

The Government’s commitment and policy are critical for stimulating the market and promoting development of the solar energy systems. As the energy price in Hong Kong is low compared with the land and construction costs, the developers and building owners lack the incentive to adopt solar energy systems.

Can small-scale PV systems generate electricity in Hong Kong?

The use of PV systems to generate electricity is another option now being investigated and tested in Hong Kong. Small-scale PV systems are often used effectively in remote areas to operate lighting and on-site data recording equipment.

How do solar thermal systems work in Hong Kong?

Solar thermal systems use sunlight to heat water directly or indirectly. In Hong Kong, the present use of these systems is primarily to provide hot water for premises like swimming pools, slaughterhouse, hospitals, public bathhouses, prison (for kitchen and laundry equipment) and military camp (Hui, 2000).
