Transition to renewable energy
Pushing Ahead with Alternative Energy
Singapore is continuing to pursue alternative energy despite COVID-19. This includes various efforts to develop hydrogen as a fuel source. For example, in March 2020, five Singapore and two Japanese companies signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to develop ways to use hydrogen as a low-carbon energy source with the support of the National Research Foundation and the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore. This is in addition to a feasibility study commissioned by the National Climate Change Secretariat, in conjunction with the Singapore Economic Development Board and Energy Market Authority.
Under the Green Plan 2030, it was also announced that the Energy Market Authority and Shell have jointly awarded a grant to a consortium led by Eigen Energy, a local small- and medium-sized enterprise (SME), to pilot Singapore’s first smart and clean-energy powered service stations, which will be ready by 2022. The stations’ smart energy management system integrates solar energy, energy storage and EV chargers to power their operations. This project is alsosupported by Enterprise Singapore under the Open Innovation initiative.
