Chihe Green has officially become a partner with EcoSmart Spark Energy to design and build the single largest solar power system (1 MW) in Hong Kong in its Yuen Long Industrial Estate.
After the approval of the CLP and the completion of all relevant application processes, the project will officially start in February 2021, and the construction will be successfully completed in May.
This time, the two major companies have joined hands to tackle the global climate change problem, implemented and actively implemented solutions, and used "feed-in tariffs" as electricity subsidies to make more companies and institutions in Hong Kong understand how to make good use of idle rooftops to install solar power systems. benefit.
Qihe Green Environmental Protection Co., Ltd. is a member of the Qihe Environmental Protection Group (listed on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, 00976.HK). It is the largest scrap metal recycling company in China and one of the world's largest listed scrap metal recycling companies. Its business covers a wide range of ferrous metals. , Recycling of non-ferrous metal scrap, scrapped automobiles, electronic waste, manufacturing of recycled aluminum ingots and recycling and processing of waste lubricating oil.
It is the world's only recycled metal company with operating bases covering three continents in Asia, Europe and North America, with more than 200 processing plants and stock yards.
The group's sales and operation network covers China, Hong Kong, Germany, Poland, Austria, Czech Republic, Romania, Slovenia, Denmark, Balkans, the United States and Mexico.
Samson Lui, General Manager of Qihe Green and Environmental Protection, said: "Our company's vision is to actively contribute to sustainable development and build an environmentally friendly world. With an efficient and diverse team, we are committed to becoming a global circular economy by providing quality products and services. Solution partner. Very rigorous about the contractor who chooses this project."
Qihe Environmental Protection in Yuen Long Industrial Estate-Hong Kong's single largest solar power system (1 MW MW)
EcoSmart Spark Energy has been established in Hong Kong for more than 10 years. It is engaged in renewable energy engineering and energy management. It is committed to promoting green technology. The professional team is familiar with relevant Hong Kong building regulations, electricity safety requirements and the "feed-in tariff" application process, providing customers with a "one-stop shop" "Solar system installation services; and has been widely known for focusing on industrial and commercial and housing estate customers; large-scale projects include: Ma On Shan Fu Bao Garden (800KW), Yuen Long Industrial Estate Huiquan International (380KW), Qiao Aohua (230KW) , Tai Po Industrial Estate Lam Soon Group (220KW), Maxim's Group (330KW), Tung Chung Cathay City (220KW), etc.
Among them, three solar projects, namely the Golden Gate Technology Park (250KW), the English Foundation School and the Hong Chi Association School in Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate, the representative works of Golden Gate Architecture, have won the "Renewable Energy Excellence Award" and "Renewable Energy Excellence Award" of the CLP "2020 Innovative and Energy-saving Enterprise Awards". Energy Excellence Award".
This time, EcoSmart Spark Energy’s solar power generation system designed for Qihe Green and Environmental Protection uses South Korea’s LG solar panels, which are one of the most efficient in the market by its own agency. In addition to resisting strong winds and reducing performance degradation, its light coating helps reduce high temperatures. The energy lost at the time.
The Enerwise real-time monitoring system with the most advanced IoT technology is connected to the Spark Solar Real-time Monitoring Center pioneered in Hong Kong to continuously measure solar irradiance to estimate the performance of the photovoltaic system, and generate big data for analysis purposes to ensure power generation efficiency and system Operation is endless.
The total number of solar panels in this system is 2,437, the rated power is 1 megawatt (MW), and the annual output of electricity is 1,013,375 kWh (equivalent to the electricity consumption of 241 Hong Kong households). It is estimated that it can effectively reduce about 572,000 kilograms of carbon emissions per year ( It is equivalent to planting 26,217 trees).
Stephen Ma, Chief Executive Officer of EcoSmart Spark Energy, said: "As the most committed contractor in Hong Kong to promote green energy, our team hopes to shoulder social responsibility and actively promote cooperation between the business community and environmental protection groups. "Proceeds will be donated to the "World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Hong Kong Branch (WWF)" to promote the development of Hong Kong's renewable energy; this time, it can work with Qihe Green Environmental Protection to actively contribute to sustainable development, and it can also use "feed-in tariff" income , As an electricity subsidy, let more companies and organizations in Hong Kong understand the benefits of using idle rooftops to install solar power systems and work together to tackle global climate change!

Finally, WWF Corporate Sustainability Director Karen Ho said: "First of all, thank EcoSmart Spark Energy for choosing us as a partner to provide practical solutions to the climate crisis and work together to control global warming within 1.5 degrees Celsius. However, only less than 1% of Hong Kong’s electricity generation is generated by renewable energy, which is far from the goal of carbon neutrality. We hope to get the support and participation of the public, government, and business community to promote the proportion of renewable energy generation in 2030. It increased to 10% a year ago; we also hope to see more large-scale solar power projects completed in Hong Kong, so as to promote Hong Kong to become the top sustainable city in Asia."
