Summary
RISE co-organizes Energy Institute Hong Kong (EIHK) Chairman’s Talk Series 2: Towards Carbon Neutrality on 6 April 2022. It is about Renewable Energy issue.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently published the second part of its Sixth Assessment Report, entitled "Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability". The report warns that extreme climate events from unsustainable practices are already having a significant impact on people, ecosystems and infrastructure. To mitigate the effects of climate change, it is important to continue our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and aim towards reaching carbon neutrality as soon as possible, and the introduction of more renewable energy can be one of the ways to achieve it.
Professor Dennis Y.C. LEUNG from The University of Hong Kong and Ir Jak LAU from Ove Arup & Partners Hong Kong Ltd are invited as speakers in this talk.
This webinar provides a great platform for engineers from both academia and industry to share their professional expertise in renewable energy, including a new biodiesel and the technical due diligence review of renewable energy power plants.
