Pavegen, a UK-based clean technology company pioneering energy and data generation, on July 29 announced it has been selected to deliver a flagship installation at Cyberport 5, part of the HK$3.7 billion ($472 million) expansion of Cyberport, Hong Kong’s government-owned Innovation & Technology (I&T) hub. Installation is scheduled for September, ahead of the site’s full completion later this year.
The project is being delivered in partnership with Gammon Construction, one of Asia’s most respected contractors, and Siemens, leveraging that company’s Insights Hub (previously known as Mindsphere), to enable live, cloud-based data analytics.
Cyberport is a digital technology campus and I&T ecosystem developed by the Hong Kong SAR Government, home to more than 1,800 tech companies, and a key driver of Hong Kong’s transformation into a global smart city.
“Our installation at Cyberport 5 proves how clean energy, digital insight, and community engagement can come together to create spaces that are as interactive as they are intelligent,” said Laurence Kemball-Cook, CEO and Founder of Pavegen. “Being part of this expansion alongside Cyberport, Gammon, and Siemens is an incredible opportunity that places us at the heart of one of Asia’s most forward-thinking smart city projects and underscores Pavegen’s readiness to integrate at scale across the region.”
Pavegen will deliver:
- Two 10.85 sqm kinetic energy arrays outside the new 10-storyy smart building at Cyberport.
- Footstep-powered clean energy, stored in batteries and used to help power outdoor lighting in the upgraded waterfront park.
- Real-time data insights, available via Siemens Insights Hub, allowing Cyberport and Pavegen to monitor energy output, and optimise system performance.
- The installation enables every pedestrian to become an energy contributor, creating a direct, emotional connection between human movement and smart infrastructure.
This installation represents a global proof point for Pavegen’s growth strategy in Asia and reinforces its unique positioning at the intersection of:
- Smart city infrastructure.
- Interactive sustainability and ESG impact.
- Decentralised clean energy.
- Data-rich engagement platforms.
- Cross-sector innovation with trusted global partners.
