Many countries have embarked on the development of smart energy, but Hong Kong is small and the development space is doubtful.
Chen Yongjian, managing director of China Gas (0003), believes that Hong Kong is a city with a population of more than 7 million, lacks industrial production, and does not consume much energy. The annual natural gas supply in Hong Kong is 800 million cubic meters, but the annual natural gas supply in the Mainland is There are 30 billion cubic meters, so there are "a lot of opportunities" for smart energy development in the Mainland.
He said that many large factories and logistics warehouses in the mainland are single-storey buildings. Solar panels can be installed on the roofs of these buildings to generate electricity, and batteries can be used to store electricity to achieve a corresponding effect.
In the future, the Gas Company will use big data in the Mainland to analyze the electricity consumption of factories, commercial buildings and homes in each region, and then make appropriate adjustments according to the electricity consumption in different seasons and weather conditions. This will achieve smart energy. For the company's future development direction in the Mainland.
Chen Yongjian said that many citizens and companies will install solar power panels in housing companies, and Gas has a biogas purification power generation project in Ta Kwu Ling, so there is still room for smart energy development in Hong Kong.

In terms of new energy development and research and development, Chen Yongjian revealed that in the past 7 to 8 years, the company's research and development work has focused on biomass (Biomass) energy, such as the use of agricultural waste to generate electricity, and the use of new energy from industrial production residues to replace transportation fuels. The company will continue to promote the research and development of related projects.
In addition, the company has signed a contract with the Taizhou Municipal Government of Jiangsu Province to assist in the management of energy in the industrial park and to find partners for the park.
Regarding the cooperation with SPIC, Chen Yong insisted that Gas and SPIC have room for cooperation in many areas. For example, in the Qinghai photovoltaic power generation project, Gas is responsible for providing energy storage solutions. Now the company is developing high-efficiency and long-life Storage battery.
