Themed "Achieving a Sustainable and Carbon Neutral Built Environment in the Greater Area", discussions at the Conference surround strategies and actions in the building industry in the Greater Bay Area that contribute to the important carbon neutrality mission.
Key Sessions:
- Setting the Scene: Policy and Direction by Influential Policy Makers
- Strategies for Achieving Carbon Peak and Neutral by Mainland Organisations and Enterprises
- Policies and Roadmaps for Achieving Carbon Neutrality by Hong Kong's Public and Private Sectors
- Certification Schemes and Innovative Technologies for Carbon Neutrality
Registration Fee: Free-of-charge
BEC EnviroSeries Conference November 2022: Formulating Business Roadmaps Towards Net Zero
Programme Highlights:
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has clearly stated that to possibly limit global warming to 1.5°C and avoid devastating climate impacts, global emissions must peak by 2025, halve by 2030, and reach net zero by 2050. Mainland China plans to become carbon-neutral by 2060 while the Hong Kong SAR Government has a 2050 commitment, supported by action plans stated in the Hong Kong’s Climate Action Plan 2050 (CAP2050) released in October 2021.
The stark reality is global emissions are still rising. The United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP) is shifting the discussions from commitments to actions, where countries committed to develop a work programme to speed up actions on emission cuts before 2030, which is also a major focus of the upcoming COP27.
The CAP2050 includes a four-pronged decarbonisation strategy - net-zero electricity generation, energy saving and green buildings, green transport, and waste reduction. The strategy is presented at city-wide level, and different industries in Hong Kong will have to explore and understand the challenges, opportunities and operational changes they need to adopt to reach carbon neutrality.
In this connection, the Conference will (a) steer industry-specific discussions on how sectoral net-zero roadmaps are developed and what practical steps are needed towards 2030, 2035 and 2050 to bridge ambition and action, (b) inspire peer companies within the specific industry to accelerate action planning, and (c) inform Hong Kong businesses how COP27 or the latest international climate negotiations would have implications to their roadmap and action.

Technical Webinar on New Regulatory Amendment of Minor Works Control System - Up
Programme Highlight:
The Minor Works Control System ("MWCS") has proven to be a simple and convenient channel in carrying out minor building works under simplified requirements without the need to obtain prior approval of plans and consent to the commencement of such works from the BA. Its implementation is generally welcomed by both the industry and the public. Since its implementation beginning from 31 December 2010 and up to 31 December 2019, over 920 000 minor works ("MW") submissions have been received.
The Building (Minor Works) (Amendment) Regulation 2020 ("B(MW)(A)R 2020") was gazetted on 8 May 2020 and will come into operation on 1/9/2020. This legislative amendment exercise would involve the addition of 70 MW items offset by the repealing of nine MW items, as a result of which the list of MW items would increase from 126 to 187. 56 existing MW items would also be amended. In terms of Designated Exempted Works items, the legislative amendment exercise would increase the number from 15 to 30, while the presentation of eight existing items would be amended. BSOMES has representative joining the Technical Committee of Buildings Department and provide opinions / comments from Industry on the implementation of the MWCS.
In this seminar, the honourable speakers from Buildings Department will brief the major changes and new addition of MW items under the B(MW)(A)R 2020 including:
⚫ Greening features to promote a green and quality environment, e.g. planters, ponds or fountains; trellises; metal frames for growing of plants
⚫ Amenity features to improve the standard and quality of the building, e.g. supporting frame for suspending air conditioning plant inside building; ventilation ducts and associated frames; fire dampers in ventilation system; awnings
⚫ Building maintenance and repair features to enhance building safety and facilitate building maintenance, e.g. small-sized reinforced polyester water tanks, cat-ladders, curtain wall, cladding
Speaker(s):
Sr Kurt Y.Y. CHIK - Building Surveyor, Buildings Department
Ir Laurel S.K. LEUNG - Structural Engineer, Buildings Department
Sr CHIK and Ir LEUNG have been working in various sections in the Buildings Department
and are now under the Minor Works & Signboard Control Section. They are familiar with the Building (Minor Works) Regulation and have substantial experience in handling MW submissions. Meanwhile, they also assist in the preparation of the B(MW)(A)R 2020. They will share their hands-on experience in conducting audit check for MW submissions, enforcement actions for the irregularities identified and introduce the proposed new/revised MW items.
Medium of instruction:
Cantonese supplemented with technical terms in English
Certificate:
1.5-hour CPD Certificate to be issued by the Organizer
Free and Participant:
This Technical Seminar is free of charge and prior registration is required. The maximum number of participants is 500. Vacancy will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis and priority will be given to BSOMES members and Supporting Organizations.
