Hong Kong’s waste problem demands opening market to investment, circular-economy models: China Everbright Environment


By Eric Ng

Hong Kong should open its environment-protection market further and introduce circular waste-treatment models, according to China Everbright Environment Group, the world’s largest waste-to-energy project developer.

The city is too reliant on landfills, and the government expects the existing ones to be full by 2026 – just a year after the scheduled commissioning of the city’s first waste-to-energy incinerator, said Hu Yanguo, vice-president at the Hong Kong-listed company, which is part of state-owned China Everbright Group.
