中華電力有限公司 CLP Power Hong Kong Limited 6 November 2017 Energy Saving Champions Applauded for Smart Thinking in CLP GREEN PLUS Award Programme CLP Power Hong Kong Limited (CLP Power) today honoured 46 winning businesses and organisations from more than 7,000 entrants for its sixth GREEN PLUS Award programme, which rewards innovative energy saving and environmental awareness practices. (Please refer to appendix for full list of winners.) A special Smart Business Energy Saving Award trophy was presented this year to outstanding businesses and organisations for their enthusiasm in introducing green thinking and smart technology to improve their operational and energy efficiency. A number of booths were set up at the ceremony to showcase smart energy saving solutions from the winning entries. The booths included Hong Kong's first green food truck, an energy efficient data center, and a residential estate implementing smart energy management solution in its clubhouse. The adoption of smart technology allows users to monitor electricity consumption data around the clock, and optimise their energy use by conducting data analysis and implementing energy management solutions. The green food truck had solar panels installed on its roof with power expertise advice from CLP Power, supplying the cooling fans with solar energy and allowing customers to recharge their mobile phones while enjoying food from the truck. The challenges brought about by climate change are becoming more acute and are already affecting our daily lives. CLP Power has energetically supported the government s environmental policies by promoting energy efficiency and conservation to the public. Speaking at the presentation ceremony, CLP Power Managing Director Chiang Tung Keung said, At CLP Power, we not only encourage our business customers to achieve energy efficiency by adopting innovative technology in their daily operations, but we also help our customers to set out on a digital journey through a number of important initiatives. We recently launched a new CLP Smart Enterprise system that allows business customers to have comprehensive energy management services through mobile app platform. This allows them to instantly monitor the energy consumption of their equipment from anywhere, maximising their operational efficiency and accurately identifying their energy saving potential. 1
The GREEN PLUS Award programme was launched in 2012 as part of CLP Power s ongoing efforts to promote energy efficiency in the business sector and has received an overwhelming response from businesses and organisations in a diverse range of sectors, including retail chain stores, small and medium enterprises, public services and utility companies, hospitals, property management companies, catering industries, NGOs, and schools. The programme has also won support and recognition from across the Hong Kong community. CLP Power invites representatives from the government, chambers of commerce, green groups, academic and professional bodies, and community leaders to act as the programme s judges. Permanent Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development (Commerce, Industry and Tourism) of the Government of the Hong Kong SAR Mr Philip Yung Waihung was guest of honour at today s event. He was glad to see that this year's CLP GREEN PLUS Award received over 7,000 applications.

They include the new Smart Energy Experience Centre in Yuen Long, where CLP Power partnered with start-up companies to introduce the latest smart products and solutions to residential customers and customers from small and medium enterprises.
