Special Feature 專 題 介 紹 The MGM Grand Macau Conclusion To return to the question posed by many alumni of the sixties and seventies, What could we have achieved if we had the benefits of the students of today?It is sufficient to repeat that this question can never be truly answered but remains a matter of tantalizing speculation, made more enticing by the startling rise to high office in the private and public sectors of the construction industry of such a high proportion of Technical College graduates of that era. 總 結 The Science Park Phase II 06

Seven different RE projects have been used and demonstrated to the public in the Park including the following: Photovoltaic roof of 3kW for power generation 3kW • a grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) system • a grid-connected wind power generation system • two hybrid solar-wind lighting systems • an auto-tracking solar PV system • a ground-coupled heat pump system for air condition and hot water heating • a hydro power system and a biomass system The electric energy produced by the solar energy and wind energy systems are connected to the local utility grid for power supply to the Park, hence conventional energy consumption can be reduced for cost saving and environmental protection. All the instant performance data of the main systems are monitored and displayed by a data collection system for demonstration and research purposes. Not only can this renewable energy provide an educational platform of renewable energy applications to visitors, aiming to build its awareness and environmental protection, but also serve to provide important on-site research facilities for the RERG. A lot of visitors have been attracted and the projects have been widely published in local j o u r n a l s , m a g a z i n e s and newspapers. Our efforts in the research and development of renewable energy applications have been greatly publicised in the territory. 2006 Professor H.X.

Renewable Energy Projects in Ma Wan <strong>The</strong>me Park<br />
馬 灣 公 園 可 再 生 能 源 基 地<br />
Supported by the Sun Hung Kai Properties Ltd., our Renewable Energy<br />
Research Group (RERG) from the Department of Building Services Engineering<br />
developed various renewable energy (RE) projects in the Ma Wan <strong>The</strong>me<br />
Park in 2006. Seven different RE projects have been used and demonstrated<br />
to the public in the Park including the following:<br />
Photovoltaic roof of 3kW for power generation<br />
3kW<br />
• a grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) system<br />
• a grid-connected wind power generation system<br />
• two hybrid solar-wind lighting systems<br />
• an auto-tracking solar PV system<br />
• a ground-coupled heat pump system for air condition and hot water heating<br />
• a hydro power system and a biomass system<br />
<strong>The</strong> electric energy produced by the solar energy and wind energy systems<br />
are connected to the local utility grid for power supply to the Park, hence<br />
conventional energy consumption can be reduced for cost saving and<br />
environmental protection. All the instant performance data of the main<br />
systems are monitored and displayed by a data collection system for<br />
demonstration and research purposes. Not only can this renewable energy<br />
provide an educational platform of renewable energy applications to visitors,<br />
aiming to build its awareness and environmental protection, but also serve<br />
to provide important on-site research facilities for the RERG. A lot of visitors<br />
have been attracted and<br />
the projects have been<br />
widely published in local<br />
j o u r n a l s , m a g a z i n e s<br />
and newspapers. Our<br />
efforts in the research and<br />
development of renewable<br />
energy applications have<br />
been greatly publicised in<br />
