#The EV-charging at Home Subsidy Scheme (“EHSS”):

The Government launched the $2 billion EV-charging at Home Subsidy Scheme in October 2020 to promote the installation of EV charging-enabling infrastructure in car parks of the existing private residential buildings.

An additional sum of $1.5 billion will be injected to extend the scheme. The scheme will support the installation of EV charging-enabling infrastructure for a total of about 140 000 parking spaces in some 700 existing private residential buildings, accounting for about half of the eligible parking spaces in Hong Kong.

#Green Tech Fund:

An additional funding of $200 million will be injected into the Green Tech Fund (GTF), with a view to further promoting decarbonisation and enhancing environmental protection in Hong Kong. The funding injected will primarily be used to subsidise projects in priority areas such as net-zero electricity generation, energy saving and green buildings, green transport and waste reduction, which will in turn help support innovation and create job opportunities for the I&T industry. Some 40 additional projects can be funded with the new injection.

**Reduce carbon emissions, reduce waste, create thousands of new green jobs and support Hong Kong’s green recovery!!
