The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Dongguan Municipal Government have agreed to deepen strategic cooperation to develop the Greater Bay Area’s first full sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) supply chain.
Under the Hong Kong SAR Government’s leadership, EcoCeres – a Hong Kong‑incubated producer of sustainable fuels – has signed an Investment Letter of Intent with the Dongguan Municipal People’s Government to establish a major new SAF facility in Dongguan.

The signing ceremony was attended by Hong Kong SAR Chief Executive John Lee, senior Dongguan officials, and EcoCeres leadership. Lee said the project aligns with the National 15th Five‑Year Plan and demonstrates effective collaboration between Hong Kong and Dongguan to advance green development and support China’s dual‑carbon goals.
Wei Hao, Secretary of the CPC Dongguan Municipal Committee, highlighted the long‑standing partnership between the two cities and said EcoCeres’ decision reflects confidence in Dongguan’s industrial strengths and its role in the global low‑carbon transition.
The initiative supports the Hong Kong SAR Government’s commitment to accelerating green technology adoption and meeting the target for departing flights at Hong Kong International Airport to use a proportion of SAF by 2030. EcoCeres’ new Dongguan plant is expected to produce around 450,000 tonnes of SAF and Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil annually, forming part of an integrated model spanning feedstock collection, production, blending and refuelling.
EcoCeres, founded by Towngas, is already one of the world’s largest SAF producers, using waste‑based feedstock to achieve significant emissions reductions. The collaboration is set to strengthen the Greater Bay Area’s position as a global leader in sustainable aviation fuel and support the decarbonisation of the transport sector.
