HK plans power interconnection infrastructure project with mainland

Hong Kong is planning to strengthen its electricity interconnection with the mainland through a new infrastructure project, Wong Shuk-han, undersecretary for environment and ecology in Hong Kong, told China Daily in a recent interview.

The project will increase the share of zero-carbon energy in Hong Kong's fuel mix for power generation in the long run, she said.

"We are planning ahead for the construction of new infrastructure for receiving and processing electricity transmitted to the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region from other regions, with land reserved for building the project, namely Electricity Facilities in our city."
