ZIBB achieved the highest reported energy density for aqueous redox flow batteries. Aqueous Redox Flow Battery is a device that generates electricity by electron transfer between two electrolytes. It is safe, friendly to the environment, with high design flexibility and long life which lasts for several decades. With the introduction of Bromide ions, Professor Lu’s research group boosted the energy density of ZIBB to as high as 101 Wh L –1 , an improvement of at least 20% in capacity relative to a control system. This new energy storage system with high energy density and a stable cycle life has potential in the growing market for electric cars. ‘The price of electric cars would be significantly lowered if this type of battery was adopted, with much longer driven mileage. Moreover, this type of battery is much safer as in a regular crash,’ Professor Lu commented. The breakthrough was published in the renowned journal Energy & Environmental Science in early 2017, and was recently featured by the magazine Chemistry World , published by The Royal Society of Chemistry, UK. 聯合國新城市議程與《香港2030+》 UN New Urban Agenda and ‘Hong Kong 2030+’ 香港約每十年便檢討城市發展策略,而《香港2030+》是政府對香港跨越2030年的策略研 究。4月1日,中大城市研究學士課程及城市設計碩士課程與聯合國兒童與青年事務委員會 及聯合國可持續發展網絡舉辦「城市構想家園地2.0」,以「環球視野,本土行動︰聯合國新 城市議程與香港2030+」為題,讓大眾了解聯合國新城市議程,共同為香港的未來獻策,並 作為《香港2030+》公眾諮詢的參考。香港特區政府規劃署副署長李志苗女士應邀出席,百 多名城市規劃專業人士、學者、年輕人及市民參與,討論如何將聯合國新城市議程納入香港 城市發展,並提出具體實踐方案。 Hong Kong has reviewed the territorial development strategy around once every decade. ‘Hong Kong 2030+’ is a comprehensive strategic study to update the territorial development directions beyond 2030. CUHK’s second Urban Thinkers Campus was held on 1 April, co-organized as part of the UN-Habitat coordinated World Urban Campaign by the BSSc in Urban Studies and MSc in Urban Design Programmes at CUHK, the UN Major Group for Children and Youth, and the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network. With the theme ‘Global Vision, Local Action’, the event brought together over 100 participants to discuss the synergies between ‘Hong Kong 2030+’ with the UN’s New Urban Agenda document. The forum was graced by Ms. Li Chi-miu, Deputy Director of Planning Department of the HKSAR Government. It brought over 100 urban planning and related professionals, academics, young people and citizens together to reflect on the Hong Kong 2030+ process, and to explore solutions that shape Hong Kong’s urban future with reference to the New Urban Agenda. 新任副校長 New Pro-Vice-Chancellor 大學校董會依據《香港中文大學條例》第5(6)條及規程7規定,委任 吳基培教授為副校長,任期三年,由2017年8月1日起生效。 The Council of The Chinese University of Hong Kong has appointed Prof. Dennis K.P.
