In his address, LegCo member Shang stated that the carbon neutrality goal is a global responsibility. Hong Kong pledges to achieve it by 2050, a decade ahead of the national target. Hong Kong has been actively promoting environmental measures in energy, transportation, construction, etc. Electricity now mainly comes from natural gas and nuclear energy, EV numbers are rising, and green buildings are becoming standard. CarbonMiner has taken the lead in carbon removal and achieved remarkable results. Shang hopes this event will boost participants' confidence in emission reduction. Let's work together to achieve carbon goals at an early date.

General Manager of Hong Kong X Qianhai Fund, Co - founder of the Xu Rou Plan, and Founding President of the MIT Shenzhen Alumni Association.
In her speech, Ms. Zhao introduced the background and mission of the Hong Kong X Fund, established by co-founders Mr. Shen Nanceng, Professor Li Zexiang, and Professor Chen Guohua. The fund aims to incubate and invest in early-stage hard-tech projects in the Greater Bay Area. Given the recent surge in global CO₂ emissions and escalating extreme weather events, the Hong Kong X Fund focuses on investing in excellent technology and application projects aligned with the dual-carbon goals, particularly those effective in reducing carbon emissions, carbon removal, and carbon utilization. Consequently, the Hong Kong X Fund became the first external institutional investor in CarbonMiner. Over the past year, the fund has witnessed multiple industry-first achievements by CarbonMiner and will continue to support its development in the dual-carbon sector.
Chief Scientist of CarbonMiner, Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at Chang'an University.
Prof. Lv Jing highlighted CarbonMiner's carbon removal tech advantages and innovations, helping guests understand the OCMC technology's principles and applications. From coal intake to solid waste treatment, and from lab research to the mass-produced Obrick Green Carbon Cube, CarbonMiner uses OCMC to mineralize and permanently store CO₂ in cement and concrete products. This collaboration with building material developers has advanced the technology from the lab to pilot production, then to mass production and scale delivery, turning carbon emissions from an environmental challenge into a green asset for the construction industry. This breakthrough addresses Hong Kong's carbon emission issues in high-density urban development and offers a replicable carbon reduction model for the global construction sector.
Chief Engineer of Guangzhou Development Environmental Building Materials Co., Ltd.
Mr. Dai Xing detailed the company's "green innovation" practices and strategic vision as a leading eco-friendly building materials firm in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Leveraging the resources of Guangzhou Development Group and with 25 years of industry experience, the company has made a significant brand impact in the Hong Kong market. In July 2024, it partnered with CarbonMiner to launch China's first carbon - fixing aerated block production line. This line has achieved technical and market success and helped establish relevant industry standards. Looking ahead, the company will use Guangzhou and Hong Kong as hubs to explore overseas markets and build a global green carbon supply chain to support carbon neutrality. It has also officially launched the large-scale production of Obrick Green Carbon Cube and started market delivery, promoting the application of green building materials technology and boosting the low-carbon transition of the industry.
Director of the Enterprise Going - Global Center, Beijing Yingke (Hong Kong) Law Firm
Dr. Chen Yue highlighted the latest policies from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for new green tech listings under Chapter 18C. Chapter 18C connects green tech with capital markets by focusing on corporate technical certification and environmental contributions. It integrates technology and law by recognizing third - party technical evaluation reports and emphasizing the future profitability and revenue - generating potential of technologies. Lawyers must review technical ownership, patent validity, the legality of founders' technical equity participation, and open-source software compliance. Their role is to ensure the prospectus is free from risks, with accurate technical descriptions, clear risk disclosures, and proper handling of government subsidies. Under the 18C rules, lawyers help companies showcase their technology's value within compliance to drive the green tech revolution and demonstrate the worth of technology through legal expertise.
Chief Representative of Shaanxi Province's Hong Kong Business Office and General Manager of Hong Kong Lishan Company
Mr. Feng Xiaoli noted that global CO₂ emissions soared to 38 billion tons in 2024. The Paris Agreement goals are behind schedule, making CO₂ removal tech crucial for resolving the climate crisis. Hong Kong, an international financial hub and key city in the Greater Bay Area, is committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Despite challenges like limited space and high technology costs, Hong Kong is advancing zero-carbon electricity, energy-efficient buildings, and electric transportation. He believes new carbon removal technologies and their commercial applications are key to addressing these challenges.
Against this backdrop, CarbonMiner and Guangzhou Development Environmental Building Materials have launched China's first carbon - fixing aerated block production line and achieved mass production and delivery. As Shaanxi Province's representative in Hong Kong, Feng is pleased that CarbonMiner is building the nation's second and the XiBei's first such production line in Weinan, Shaanxi, with mass production set for August 2025.
Founder and CEO of CarbonMiner
Mr. Chen Yu expressed thanks to the guests, investors, and partners at the launch event. He was honored and pleased to introduce the OCMC technology and the global debut of the Obrick Green Carbon Cube, a carbon - fixing aerated block. He highlighted CarbonMiner's tech applications, development plans, and achievements, especially the first carbon - fixing aerated block production line built with Guangzhou Development Building Materials, which has started mass production and product delivery.
As China's sole company with large-scale CO₂ removal and commercialization, CarbonMiner aims to lead global large-scale CO₂ removal. Chen Yu shared insights on global carbon removal, carbon credit, and carbon asset trading. The company is confident in contributing to global dual-carbon goals through R&D and commercial application.
The construction of the second carbon - fixing aerated block production line in China and the first in Northwest China marks a closed loop from carbon - fixing technology to commercialization. It enables batch replication and lays the foundation for large - scale CO₂ removal. In the next three years, CarbonMiner aims to remove 1 million tons of carbon and aspires to remove 1% of global CO₂ emissions annually in the long term to support global dual-carbon goals.
This launch event marked another significant step for CarbonMiner in commercializing carbon removal tech. From in - depth CCUS technology discussions to exploring carbon asset trading pathways, and from showcasing OCMC technology achievements to interpreting the opportunities of the HKEX 18C rules, we anchored on technology and bridged cooperation to outline green transformation with industry peers.
We appreciate the insightful contributions from our guests, which added intellectual value to the tech implementation. Thanks to our partners' trust and support, our innovations quickly gained market value. And we're grateful for our team's full commitment, which turned expectations into reality.
As a global leader in carbon - fixing tech application, CarbonMiner believes carbon neutrality is not just a vision but achievable through technology, business, and shared opportunities. Looking ahead, we'll keep focusing on carbon removal to offer a "Chinese solution" for global carbon neutrality.
Remember, the road to success is never lonely when we walk together. Let's start here and head towards a green future！
