Hong Kong's Executive Council on Tuesday approved CLP Power Hong Kong Limited extending the contract for supply of nuclear electricity from Daya Bay Nuclear Power Station for another term of 20 years from May 7, 2014, Flow control valve to May 6, 2034, according to the local government website. Hong Kong's Secretary for the Environment Edward Yau said a reliable, safe and efficient electricity supply that can adequately cater for the demand for electricity is essential for the overall economic development of the city. CLP Power's extension of the contract for electricity supply from Daya Bay provides an assurance of electricity supply at reasonable and affordable prices for Hong Kong consumers, and also a continued supply of cleaner electricity to Hong Kong, which will help alleviate air pollution and greenhouse gas emission locally, he added.
