The BATCX, however, recorded a slight increase of 0.1% of the average daily electricity consumption (Figure 11).

Despite our overall 1.5% increase in electricity consumption in all CAD premises in 2002, amounting to 30,891 kilowatt-hours on average daily, we still met our 2002 target which was to maintain electricity consumption at a level below the traffic growth in the Hong Kong International Airport (Figure 12). The traffic has grown by 5% in 2002.

In the year of 2003, we will follow the guidelines of the Environment, Transport and Works Bureau on reducing the electricity consumption by 1.5% from that of the year of 2002.
