Government locks HK into electricity scheme of control until 2034
HK Government, 25-Apr-2017
That's another 15 years without competition in the sector.
HKSAR v The HK Electric Co Ltd
HK Court of First Instance, 11-Jul-2014
The conviction for having insufficient crew members on board the doomed Lamma IV is quashed.
Re Michael James Turner QC
HK Court of First Instance, 27-Jun-2014
A London silk is allowed into HK to defend the coxswain of the doomed Lamma IV. No doubt HK Electric and its insurers think he is worth the fees, because if the coxswain is found guilty then there are implications as to the company's liability.
HK Electric Co Ltd v Commissioner of Rating and Valuation
HK Court of Final Appeal, 6-Jan-2012
By a majority of 3:2, the CFA rules that the applicable interest rate on the overpaid rates and rent is the company's actual cost of borrowing rather than the higher "judgment rate".
Hong Kong's electricity tax
The Government and the power companies are playing politics with the tariff, tilting it to tax larger residential consumers in order to subsidize the tariff for smaller ones. We call for a single flat-rate residential tariff and for it to be brought into line with the commercial tariff. Why should people be penalised for living together rather than on separate meters, or for spending more time at home, and why should they pay more than commercial users for the same amount of electricity? (4-Jan-2012)
CLP's small print: tariff rise is 8.4%, rebate is conditional
We look at the detail in CLP's 2012 tariff increase and the corresponding court case which HK Electric won. If CLP does not win its case, or if the amount of refund of Government rates and ground rent is smaller than expected, then the rebate will have to be clawed back in future tariffs. In any case, the rebate will be of limited duration as it relates to a lump sum. (4-Jan-2012)
