Chan expects CS Tech, currently funded by investments, HKPC support, and profits from traditional eco-brick sales, to break even in 2026 when it begins trading carbon credits and launches its system in the market.

Starting in 2025, publicly listed companies from the Chinese mainland will be required, either mandatorily or voluntarily, to disclose ESG (environmental, social and governance) or carbon-related information. Companies must submit their 2025 ESG reports by April 30, 2026.

In April 2024, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, which first introduced ESG disclosure guidelines in 2015, strengthened its climate-related reporting requirements, including direct emissions, emissions associated with purchased electricity and for some, emissions from the company's value chain.
