Hong Kong Science Park Phase 3
Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation has always been committed to
promoting sustainable development. In 2011, construction started on the development for
Hong Kong Science Park Phase 3, which features a total of 39 passive, active and renewable
energy green design features. Mr Dickson Wat, Senior Manager (Projects) at Hong Kong
Science and Technology Parks Corporation, explains that the design of this third phase uses
“back to basic” as its design concept and slogan. He is convinced that by getting the project’s
eco credentials right from the very beginning, not only will the company save time and effort,
it will also create an excellent foundation for the addition of further energy-saving and other
green components in the future.
香港科學園第三期
香港科技園公司一直致力推動可持續發展，
在 2011 年動工的香港科學園第三期，結合
了多項被動式、主動式及可再生能源的綠色
設計共 39 項。香港科技園公司工程高級經理
屈漢邦表示第三期的設計以「回到簡約」為
理念和口號，並深信只要踏出方向正確的第
一步，往後加入其他節能環保設計就會事半
功倍，得心應手。
Ex-Yuen Long Estate
The Ex-Yuen Long Estate development project is the Housing Department’s first public
housing project graded with a BEAM Plus Provisional Platinum rating. “The Department is
committed to integrating green features into its development projects,” explains the Housing
Department’s Chief Architect, Mr Ken Cheung. “After the Buildings Department launched gross
floor area (GFA) concessions with BEAM Plus registration in 2011, the Housing Department
decided to further enhance its standard specifications by achieving a minimum of BEAM
Plus Gold rating in any development projects, thus increasing the number of dwelling units
that can be built from the extra GFA granted.” He further explains that every development
plan must take into account the social, economic and environmental considerations of the
community mainly from the grass root sector. Therefore the Housing Department is taking the
lead in integrating passive design that blend with the local environment and better adapt to
the micro climate conditions. These measures are fully tailored to local conditions and make
optimal use of natural resources. As such, they not only meet the needs of the community
to the greatest extent possible, they also provide comfortable living and cultivate a sense of
sustainable development for the community.
前元朗邨
前元朗邨發展項目是房屋署首個取得綠建環評暫定鉑金級的公營房屋項目。房屋署總設計師
張冠城說：「房屋署一直致力將環保設施融入項目。隨着綠建環評及屋宇署於 2011 年推出的
總樓面面積寬免要求，房屋署進一步優化標準範本，使任何工程均能達至綠建環評的金級水平，
以獲得更多的總樓面面積增加可建公屋單位數量。」他亦提到公營房屋住客為基層市民，發展
計劃需要顧及社會、經濟和環境的不同需要，因此項目會以被動主導的綜合設計策略，盡量配
合該區的環境及氣候因素，因地制宜，善用自然資源，並盡量切合社區的需要，為區內提供一
個舒適的居住空間及可持續發展社區環境。
