Sustainable built environments are transforming entire communities across Asia-Pacific, with sustainability pioneer Allied Environmental Consultants (AEC) certifying more than 13 million square metres of green buildings across Hong Kong, mainland China and Southeast Asia over the past three decades.
“Our services will become more diversified and comprehensive moving forward because of more stringent compliance requirements,” said Grace Kwok, chairman and executive director of Allied Sustainability and Environmental Consultants Group (AEC Group).
AEC has managed green building certification for many prestigious projects in Hong Kong, including but not limited to internationally recognised certifications such as BEAM Plus, BREEAM and LEED. The 484-metre high International Commerce Centre by Sun Hung Kai Properties, Central’s two International Finance Centres with Tower 2 soaring to 415 metres, and 12 commercial buildings by Hongkong Land were AEC undertakings.
The first and only environmental consulting firm listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange, AEC has earned international accolades. InnoCell, a pioneering modular integrated building technology structure, won the World Green Building Council’s (WorldGBC) Asia Pacific Leadership in Sustainable Design and Performance 2022 award. Henderson Land also won last year’s Business Leadership in Sustainability award, making Hong Kong the first and only city to win two major WorldGBC awards. AEC served as the sustainability consultant for both.
