On Thursday, Radio Television Hong Kong's Solar Project 2026 concluded with a closing ceremony attended by over 100 students from 77 secondary schools. Permanent Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, Angela Lee, addressed the gathering alongside Director of Broadcasting, Angelina Kwan.

Lee highlighted the importance of capitalizing on opportunities presented by Hong Kong's 15th Five-Year Plan, emphasizing the need to leverage the city's unique strengths into the national development agenda and innovation ecosystem. She encouraged the students to take advantage of opportunities in various sectors, such as innovation, technology, cultural and creative industries, and professional services.

The Solar Project engaged students through a cultural and tourism theme, "Cultural and Tourism Junior Reporters." As part of this program, the Solar Ambassadors embarked on a study trip to Shenzhen's Qianhai district in June, followed by a visit to Xinjiang in July.

To commemorate the year's achievements, a special documentary featuring the key highlights of the Solar Project 2026 will air on RTHK TV31 for three consecutive Fridays, beginning on August 28 at 9.30pm.
