A ceremony was held at the Qianhai Chow Tai Fook Financial Centre to launch the Environmental Assessment Standard for Green Buildings in the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone, known as the "Qianhai Green Building Standards." This standard serves as a benchmark for the Greater Bay Area and is the first of its kind aimed at integrating green building assessment practices between Shenzhen and Hong Kong. It introduces an innovative “One Assessment, Dual Certification” mechanism, allowing a project to simultaneously obtain certification from both Mainland China and Hong Kong through a single assessment. The launch of the Qianhai Green Building Standards marks a significant advancement in the standardization of design and construction between the two regions. Officials from various government departments attended the event, including the Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of Guangdong Province, the Development Bureau of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and the Shenzhen Housing and Construction Bureau. They were joined by over a hundred guests from industry associations, businesses, and academic experts from both Guangdong and Hong Kong, all witnessing this milestone moment.
