Abstract | Due to the growing concern on global warming, carbon emissions and environmental conservation and sustainability, energy consumption becomes the critical issue over the world. Energy performance contracting (EPC) is one of the options of implementing energy efficiency measures by property management in the residential estates. EPC is a financing technique based on the amount of energy saving through the project undertaken the risk by energy service companies (ESCOs). EPC has been adopted in the western countries, such as Europe and US, for a long time. Nevertheless, the take up rate in Hong Kong remains low.
In 2001, Davies and Chan have conducted a study regarding the experience of EPC in Hong Kong. After a decade, are there any changes of the perception for the building managers to implement EPC? With the study of the most important factors, benefits, barriers and keys to the success of implementing EPC, it evaluates and explores the implementation of EPC by property management at the residential sector in Hong Kong.
Through the study, it develops practical information for promoting this financial option to housing managers for energy conservation. It can help to promote and facilitate the future uptake in Hong Kong in order to enhance cost and energy efficiency, as well as greenhouse gas emission reductions in the future. |
