On 25 June, the Green and Sustainable Open Laboratory Special Fund Review Meeting was successfully held. The Green and Sustainable Open Lab project was initiated by the SZ-HK Collaborative Innovation Research Institute, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. It is open to industrial cooperation and focuses on scientific research and industrial applications in the field of green and sustainable development. Shui On Land joined the Green and Sustainable Open Lab project as the first industrial partner, and provided the "Green Sustainable special Research Fund" for the laboratory, promoting the transformation of scientific and technological achievements in the field of green sustainable development of HKUST, and helping Shui On Green sustainable industry innovation and development. This is also the first school-enterprise in-depth cooperation in the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Hetao Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Zone, focusing on green and sustainable fields, and collaborating with Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Shanghai. Since the unveiling of the project on 10 March, the Green Sustainable Open Laboratory project has gradually carried out a number of work such as project solicitation, production and research exchanges, university visits, and university lectures.

Under the chairmanship of Professor Yang Jinglei, chairman of the review committee and dean of SZ-HK Collaborative Innovation Research Institute, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, the review expert group conducted a fair, impartial and comprehensive meeting discussion.

Before the review meeting, under the leadership of Professor Huang Baoling, the director of the Green and Sustainable Open Laboratory, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and Gao Lingyun, the executive director of SZ-HK Collaborative Innovation Research Institute, the laboratory working group of Shui On Land visited the exhibition hall of the SZ-HK Collaborative Innovation Lab and the Green and Sustainable Open Laboratory. The laboratory working group congratulated the institute for its positive achievements, and looked forward to the cooperation of the Green and Sustainable Open Laboratory Project, the two sides can jointly build a green sustainable ecological platform, and radiate innovative energy for a wider and further green sustainable industry field.

Professor Yang Jinglei made the opening speech of the review meeting:“Traditional energy-saving and emission-reduction measures are not necessarily able to meet the needs of the dual carbon targets, and some new, breakthrough and subversive technologies need to emerge continuously. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has gradually deepened its research and exploration on carbon reduction cutting-edge technologies, covering the fields such as embodied carbon, thermal performance of building maintenance structures, energy-saving materials, and data decision-making. We hope that in the cooperation with the laboratory, we will give full play to the scientific research advantages of HKUST, further expand the scientific research accumulation of professors, and continue to iterate in field verification.”

Mr. Zhang Bin delivered a speech at the reviewing meeting, he said: “Shui On Land aims to continue to be a pioneer in building and managing excellent sustainable urban communities. We hope that through the green and sustainable open laboratory, we can find high-quality innovative solutions, apply them in specific businesses, and promote such valuable technologies to the society and industry, so as to achieve greater social effects, and at the same time help scientific research and start-up teams find such soil and opportunities to combine with the industry. ”

The Green and Sustainable Open Laboratory focuses on green and sustainable innovative technologies and solutions. The first phase attracted the registration of nine scientific research project teams led by professors from HKUST, covering embodied carbon emissions and self-contained temperature-limited graphene floor heating, community distributed energy planning and smart micro-grid, building energy systems, building robots, BIPV system research and application, photovoltaic integration and other cutting-edge scientific research directions.
