OMEAA Awardees Dr YAU Wing Kwong Worked as power plant engineer after graduating at HK Polytechnic, and obtained BSc and PhD at Queen Mary College, University of London, with 1st class honours and support from Draper’s scholarship and British Gas, on work related to high efficiency heat transfer and decreasing ozone layer depletion. Dr Yau then worked at GEC Alsthom before returning to HK, bringing back energy saving and environmental technologies. Dedicated to Environmental conservation, Dr Yau applies his engineering experience to Develop practical Environmental Work, education and policy advocacy, including energy saving and renewable energy. His pilot work advocate the government to set up a $1 Billion energy saving fund. The (Tai Po) Environmental Association he found in 1997 now has pioneering Environmental Centres, including the, • EWise Discovery Centre – Energy saving campaigns extends to 6 HK districts, and helped over 250 buildings in energy-saving retrofit. • Fung Yuen Butterfly Reserve – the only nature butterfly reserve in HK, • Tai Po Geoheritage Centre – helps HK in obtaining the Global Geopark status, • Ways of Plastic Recycling.

Nowadays, engineers serves an even greater purpose and responsibility in balancing development and environmental conservation, applying his knowledge, experience and notably, innovation. HK Polytechnic, now PolyU, was a place where we developed our character, empower and path our career in our working life. Beyond that, it is the valuable life-long friendship between alumni. I like to highlight the newly established Atrium for Alumni use in the campus, showing how PolyU values and committed to Alumni relationship. I encourage all MME and other Alumni, in knitting a closer relationship with the ME Department and the PolyU, in enjoying as well as contributing in various ways.
