The tension
Hong Kong has opened the water, written rules for methanol and promised a Green Energy Corridor, yet fuel storage, a clear demand signal and safety rules for later fuels are still to come.
Our thesis
Publish a corridor framework, start storage planning with a dated tender, extend safety standards to later fuels and widen incentives only if green volumes lag.
Three policy problems this brief examines
- 01Storage and supply are not yet in place
- 02No demand signal or volume target
- 03Safety rules lag the next fuels
Each problem is developed in three layers: the fact, why it persists, and the consequence for the system.
Three options compared
A · Wait for the market: keep the current rules, anchorages and concessions.
B · Fast-track storage: Government-led storage site and early tender.
C · Government supply chain: state-backed storage, supply and long-term purchase.
The scored comparison, the justified recommendation with its phased measures, the implementation challenges, the stakeholder assessment and the success metrics are in the full brief.
