The School of Energy and Environment (SEE) hosted the “SEE Green Innovation Competition 2023” Campus Tour on 3 June 2023. Joining us were the shortlisted teams from Canadian International School of Hong Kong, Diocesan Boys’ School, Hong Kong International School, Maryknoll Convent School (Secondary Section), St. Paul's School (Lam Tin), Stamford American School Hong Kong and West Island School.

The tour began with a welcoming session and an opportunity to meet with advisors, followed by two lab demonstrations and a library tour. The demonstrations included the latest research on “Water Energy Nexus” novel 2D 3D membrane technology for water to H2 and CO? capture by Dr. Alicia AN’s research group, as well as the award-winning demonstration of Intelligent “Skin” materials for building decarbonization and thermochromic smart window building technology by Dr. Edwin TSO’s research team. The tour ended with a visit to Run Run Shaw Library, where participants browsed the collection of books and resources on sustainability and environmental science.

SEE extends its appreciation to all the students and teachers who joined us on a hot and sunny Saturday. The tour enabled knowledge transfer of innovative solutions related to various energy, environment, and sustainability issues. The School is excited to receive the extended proposals from the teams and see the impact of their ideas later in July. All shortlisted teams will present their ideas and findings at the finalists’ presentation and SEE Showcase Day on 29 July 2023 on the CityU campus.
