4T Charter Schemes

The “4T Charter”
As buildings account for some 90% of electricity consumption and over 60% of greenhouse gas emissions in Hong Kong, China, reducing energy consumption in buildings is one of the important measures to achieve the new carbon reduction target. The Government has established a partnership with major stakeholders in the built environment under the 4T framework, namely target, timeline, transparency and together, under which the 4T partners are encouraged to set their energy saving targets and timelines and to share their existing and planned energy saving measures.
