Site trip confirms opportunity

Edison visited three water sites belonging to China Water Affairs Group (CWA) in the heavily industrialised Guangdong province in mainland China. The sites encompassed a raw water/reservoir facility, an industrial waste water treatment plant and a water supply business. A three-hour drive from Hong Kong, the sites visited depend heavily on the Huizhou Industrial Zone, which has been developed by the Chinese government and various private companies since its inception in the early 1990s. The visit assured us of the robust, high-quality nature of CWA’s assets and underscored how fundamental raw water provision and waste water treatment are to the Chinese industrial strategy. Ultimately, this gives us enhanced confidence in our high, long-term growth forecasts for CWA.
