Hong Kong looks to sea for clean energy in land-starved city


HONG KONG, April 12 (Bloomberg): Hong Kong’s CLP Holdings Ltd is looking offshore to help meet a growing need for renewable energy, as limited land supply in the city poses a challenge to building clean-power capacity.

CLP, one of the two main electricity generators in the city, said it is revisiting offshore wind technology, and may submit proposals for an offshore wind farm to the local government for their next five-year development plan starting 2023.
