Programme Highlights

Are you interested in learning how innovative technology and environmental sustainability intersect? Join us for an exclusive tour of the Towngas Tai Po Plant and Tai Po Nethersole Hospital!

In line with the Climate Action Plan 2050, Towngas is committed to developing clean energy. Currently, hydrogen constitutes around half of its supplied gas composition, with its pipeline network reaching virtually everywhere in Hong Kong.

At the Towngas Tai Po Plant, you will explore the intricate processes of a hydrogen extraction system. The hydrogen supply facility uses “pressure swing adsorption technology” to extract hydrogen from the gas network with a purity of up to 99.99%, which is suitable for hydrogen fuel cell power generation.

In addition, we will visit the Alice Ho Miu Ling Nethersole Hospital, a pioneering project in the utilization of landfill gas for a Combined Heating and Power System (CHP) in a distributed energy system. This project serves as a remarkable example of efficient resource usage and social engagement in sustainability.
