Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited (SHKP) is proud to announce that its International Commerce Centre (ICC) has become the first building in Asia to attain Platinum certification under the latest Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) v5.0 Operations and Maintenance: Existing Buildings by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).

King-wai Lo, Executive Director of Sun Hung Kai Real Estate Agency, said: “As Hong Kong’s premier international commerce and financial hub, ICC embodies SHKP’s commitment to developing forward-thinking strategies that consistently enhance asset value. With sustainability becoming a core priority for multinational corporations, ICC is proud to be the first building in Asia to achieve the highest distinction in LEED v5.0 certification. This recognition reinforces ICC’s leadership in green building practices and is fully aligned with the sustainability expectations of our world-class tenants, further strengthening ICC’s position as a market leader.”

IGC is poised to create synergy with ICC and the Group’s other developments in the district, establishing a unique hub for commerce, culture, arts, retail, entertainment and transportation in the Greater Bay Area.

ICC utilizes technology to drive green management

In 2022, ICC implemented an Extended Reality Facility Management system in its operations. The system utilizes technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things, Digital Twin and big data analytics. In 2024, ICC’s total electricity consumption decreased by over 20 million kWh compared to that 2012, equivalent to a reduction of 14,000 tonnes of carbon emissions. ICC further enhanced energy efficiency by deploying AI-driven optimization and energy management for its air conditioning systems. 

LEED v5.0 sets higher standards for green buildings, emphasizing three key goals: climate action, quality of life, and ecological conservation and restoration. Apart from addressing energy efficiency and carbon emissions, it also emphasizes the protection of human health and ecosystems, ensuring that operations are resilient to future environmental changes and aligned with net-zero emissions goals. This approach fosters healthier communities and enhances overall well-being.
