The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) government and the Energy Market Authority of Singapore signed the renewed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Monday to continue and strengthen cooperation between Hong Kong and Singapore in energy-related matters.

The renewal marks the continuation of the first MoU signed by both sides in 2020 to enhance their collaborative relationship in energy-related matters.

Under the renewed MoU, both sides will deepen cooperation in three key areas: electricity and gas systems and markets; renewable energy, energy efficiency and conservation, district cooling, AI, digital grids and low carbon technologies; and promotion of collaboration in multilateral forums.
