A competition was arranged in which participants were
required to reach dierent checkpoints by taking the stairs and
completing mini-games. Over 70 participants including a team

HPH Trust LED lighting programme
In 2015, HPH Trust continued to replace its traditional lights with
light-emitting diode (“LED”) lights, extending the usage of LEDs
to RTGCs and frontloaders. More than 1,000 LED lights were
installed in RTGCs and frontloaders in 2015.
New RTGCs
ACT took delivery of 10 new hybrid RTGCs in 2015. Hybrid RTGCs
consume around 50% less fuel than traditional diesel RTGCs,
and these new RTGCs have also been fitted with LED lights,
further boosting our eorts in operational sustainability and
environmental protection. In 2015, HIT and YICT also received
12 and 22 new eRTGCs respectively.
Electric/Hybrid vehicles
HIT and YICT have increased usage of electric or hybrid vehicles
at the ports. At HIT, two new electric vehicle (“EV”) chargers were
installed in 2015 to support the EVs that are currently in use at the
port. At YICT, two EV patrol cars, one EV VIP bus, along with one
hybrid pool car are to be received by the second quarter of 2016.
Furthermore, YICT plans to convert 10% of all non-operation
vehicles at the port to electric or hybrid ones in 2016.
HPH Trust supported Go Green 2015 initiative
HPH Trust participated in Go Green 2015, an environmental
initiative undertaken by global terminal operators. At HIT, an
environmental farm using recyclable pallets and trays was set
up to plant a variety of vegetables. Sta and management
attended the first harvest in September 2015. Similarly, 50
COSCO-HIT and ACT sta and family members gathered to
plant shrubs and small flowers in pots on the rooftop of the
COSCO-HIT oce building. At YICT, 900 second-hand items
were exchanged in an event under the Go Green initiative. A
charity auction was also held, with proceeds donated to the
Yunnan Hope Primary School Project.
HIT launched grati workshops for the second year
In 2015, HIT and the Warehouse Teenage Club, a local non-
profit organisation, jointly organised grati workshops for
students in the Kwai Tsing area for the second year. Over 100
participants from six secondary schools in the Kwai Tsing area
as well as senior citizens from the South Kwai Chung Service
Centre attended the kick-o ceremony on 3 October 2015.
On 19 December 2015, over 60 students and the elderly
painted eight rubbish bins that have since been placed
around HIT’s container yard, promoting a clean container
terminal environment. A second workshop was held on 30
January 2016 with over 50 attendees including secondary
school students, HIT sta and their families. Terminal tours
were also arranged for the participants to learn more about
the operations and facilities of the container terminal.

On 27 November 2015, HIT held a company-wide “GreenFit”
