Sai Tso Wan Recreation Ground

During the construction, the former landfill underwent a series of restoration works, which included the building of a final capping layer for prevention of leakage, a landfill gas control system for utilisation of methane gas generated from the decomposed rubbish, and a leachate management system.

Unlike most urban areas which relies mainly on electric supply, the ground is powered by wind turbines, solar cells and energy generated from combustion of methane gas.

[5] Sai Tso Wan Recreation Ground was built in part to promote environmental protection in Hong Kong.

Solar panels in the recreation ground absorb sunlight during sunny days and convert the energy into electricity.

Surface water, including rainwater, collected from the facility is drained, recycled and then used to irrigate the turf of the ground.
