Government announces ceiling price adjustment mechanism for charging electric taxis and electric public light buses at designated charging stations and extension of tender invitation periods for sales of two lots for converting into quick charging stations for electric vehicles
******************************************************************************************
     The Government announced today (April 24) the ceiling price adjustment mechanism for charging electric taxis (e-taxis) and electric public light buses (e-PLBs) at designated quick charging stations (QCSs) and the extension of the tender invitation periods for sales of New Kowloon Inland Lot 6639 (i.e. No. 8 Kai Fuk Road, Kowloon Bay, Kowloon) and Sha Tin Town Lot 646 (i.e. Shan Mei Street, Sha Tin, New Territories) for converting into QCSs for electric vehicles.
 
     A spokesperson for the Environment and Ecology Bureau said, "The Government announced today on the Environment and Ecology Bureau website (www.eeb.gov.hk/en/resources_publications/guidelines/index.html) the ceiling price adjustment mechanism for charging e-taxis and e-PLBs at designated QCSs. Given that tenderers may need more time to consider their tender submission issues, an extension of the tender invitation periods for three weeks will be provided for sales of the two lots, i.e. the tender closing dates for New Kowloon Inland Lot 6639 and Sha Tin Town Lot 646 will be on May 31 and June 21 respectively." Details of the extension of the tender invitation will be published in the Government Gazette on April 26.
 
     The tender invitations for sales of New Kowloon Inland Lot 6639 and Sha Tin Town Lot 646 for converting into QCSs were originally published on March 1 and March 22 with the tender closing dates set on May 10 and May 31 respectively. Details of these tender invitations were published on the Lands Department website (www.landsd.gov.hk).
