Media Release World's Largest Underground District Cooling Network At Marina Bay Saves More Than 40 Per Cent In Energy For Customers National Development Minister commissions Singapore District Cooling’s district cooling network, with Marina One signing customer contract today Singapore, 3 March 2016 – Singapore District Cooling (SDC), a subsidiary of Singapore Power (SP), formally commissioned its plant operations with the completion of a major expansion project, making it the world’s largest underground district cooling network. SDC serves key buildings in the Marina Bay financial district, including the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort, Marina Bay Financial Centre and Gardens By The Bay and is set to welcome new customers in the district. Chilled water generated by SDC is used for air conditioning. Customers enjoy the efficiency and energy savings of more than 40 per cent. This is achieved by leveraging economies of scale, optimising asset efficiency and upholding operational excellence. SDC’s underground centralised system eliminates the space requirements and upfront costs for customers’ own on-site chillers and roof-top spaces for cooling towers. At the event officiated by National Development Minister Lawrence Wong, SDC signed a new supply agreement with the mixed-use Marina One development at Marina South. Mr Ng Lang, CEO of Urban Redevelopment Authority, said, “Developing a centralised district cooling network to serve the Marina Bay precinct is a bold idea many years in the making. Today, we reap the benefits from early planning and thoughtful design, from freeing up space and saving costs to reducing carbon emissions. We are delighted to have worked with Singapore Power and many other partners to realise this vision for a vibrant and sustainable Marina Bay, one that is supported by world-class infrastructure.” Singapore Power’s Group CEO, Mr Wong Kim Yin, said, “SDC provides an efficient, reliable and sustainable solution that translates to significant energy savings for customers. Through SDC, Singapore has another world-class solution that can contribute to meeting the world’s need for a sustainable future.” Asia Square, one of SDC’s existing customers, has reaped environmental benefits and cost savings from SDC’s operations. Mr Philip Chan, Asia Square’s Sustainability Manager said: “As one of Singapore's finest developments in the heart of the city, environmental sustainability is an important feature for Asia Square. With Singapore District Cooling's energy-efficient cooling system, we are very happy with both the energy and cost savings that we have been able to achieve.” ###   About Singapore Power Singapore Power Group (SP) is a leading energy utility group in the Asia Pacific.

[19 Apr 2022] The Business Times - SP Group to invest S$40-60m in new district cooling systemhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:5790dd61-4a7b-457b-bc5d-e18ca55aa55e
2 | The TOP STORIES Business Times | Tuesday, April 19, 2022 ESG PUSH SP Group to invest S$40-60m in new district cooling system Tampines’ upcoming district cooling network Buildings with excess cooling capacity to supply chilled water Masjid Darul Ghufran Buildings receiving chilled water Building to supply chilled water after first half of 2025 TAMPINES CONCOURSE Tampines station Underground pipes trasporting chilled water TAMPINES CENTRAL 1 Brownfield project at Tampines will help town centre reduce carbon emissions and save energy By Wong Pei Ting wongpeiting@sph.com.sg @WongPeiTingBT AFTER taking over 2 years to convince building owners at Tampines town centre to be part of its vision of setting up Singapore’s first district cooling system at a brownfield site, SP Group will go ahead and invest S$40 million to S$60 million to make it happen. This comes as owners of 8 buildings there – including CapitaLand, Ascendas Reit, Frasers Property and OCBC – have decided to subscribe to the solution that will see some buildings letting up their excess chiller capacity for the rest of the buildings in the network. The buildings to be connected via a 1 km underground piping network of chilled water are Tampines Mall, Century Square, Tampines 1, OCBC Tampines Centre 2, Telepark, CPF Tampines Building, NTUC Income Tampines Junction and Our Tampines Hub. Once the network is up and running by the first half of 2025, existing in-building chiller plants at Our Tampines Hub, Tampines 1 and Century Square will cool 4 other buildings, which can then do away with their own chiller plants completely. The 3 supply nodes were selected based on their excess cooling capacity and superior energy efficiency factor. The eighth building, Ascendas Reit’s Telepark, will be plugged into the network later as it was identified as a possible fourth supply node. SP has signed a letter of intent with the real estate investment trust (Reit) to build, own and operate a new chiller plant there. Owners of the first 7 buildings – CapitaLand, CPF Board, Frasers Property, NTUC Income, OCBC and People’s Association – separately signed a supply agreement with SP Group at Our Tampines Hub on Monday (Apr 18). At present, each building runs on its chiller plant systems, so excess cooling capacity is catered for but “stranded”, leading to a situation where assets that can support 19,000 refrigeration tons (RTs) of cooling capacity are installed, but only up to 7,000 RTs are used. The new system, which SP Group will take over to own and operate on a tenured basis, will tighten the buildings’ cooling capacity to 10,500 RTs. This not only allows the chiller systems to operate more efficiently, it also frees up leasable space for the various building owners. All in, the cooling network will help the town centre reduce 1,359 tonnes of carbon emissions a year, which is equivalent to taking 1,236 cars off the roads annually, SP Group claimed. The network is also expected to lead to annual energy savings of more than 2.8 million kilowatthour – energy enough to power about 905 3-room HDB households for a year – the utilities group added. The initial plan drawn up by SP Group and state investor Temasek was to include 6 other buildings at the Tampines regional centre. They are UOB Tampines Centre, OCBC Tampines Centre One, NTUC Income Tampines Point, 7 and 9 Tampines Grande, Tampines Plaza 1 and Tampines Plaza 2. If all 14 buildings were plugged into the district cooling network, 2,475 tonnes of carbon emissions would have been cut annually, according to findings of a feasibility study which SP Group and state investor Temasek had published last August. This is equivalent to taking 2,250 cars off the road a year, or an 18 per cent fall in the buildings’ carbon emissions. SP Group told BT the 6 buildings were excluded for now due to a combination of technical and commercial factors. Commenting on Monday’s milestone, adviser to Tampines grassroots organisations Masagos Zulkifli, who was present at the signing ceremony, said the project is “crucial to Singapore” and its significance “should not be overlooked”. This is because it illustrates how Our Tampines Hub sustainable solutions can be integrated to transform existing townships, the former minister for environment and water resources said, as he noted that a significant proportion of Singapore’s building stock will continue to exist in 2050. “In international forums, pressure to show and prove commitment to adaptation and mitigation for climate change is mounting. This project is therefore crucial to Singapore,” said Masagos, who is currently minister for social and family development. “The energy and cost savings, as well as reduction in carbon emissions enjoyed by building owners prove that with the right solutions, doing good and doing well are not mutually exclusive and will address our challenge posed by climate change.” In a statement to the press, SP Group and Temasek further noted TAMPINES CENTRAL 2 TAMPINES AVENUE 5 Income at Tampines Junction Telepark TAMPINES CENTRAL 6 Tampines Bus Interchange CPF Tampines Building Century Square OCBC Tampines Centre Two that more than 80 per cent of Singapore’s landscape is brownfield, and pointed out that air-conditioning can utilise up to 50 per cent of a building’s energy consumption. “A wider application of such a sustainable cooling solution will contribute towards the energy goals under the Singapore Green Plan 2030 and Singapore’s climate targets of reaching net zero by or around mid-century,” they said. Other perks for building owners include combined life-cycle economic benefits of up to S$50.8 million over 30 years, they said. Current unutilised cooling capacity can also be cut by up to 42 per cent, freeing up chiller plant gross floor area that can be converted to commercial and lifestyle spaces, they added. Referring to buildings as large carbon emitters, Frasers Property Retail’s chief executive officer Low TAMPI NES CENTRAL 5 Tampines One Tampines station Tampines Mall TAMPINES AVENUE 4 Tampines Community Plaza TAMPINES CENTRAL 4 Source: SP Group Chee Wah said: “In time, we hope that the success of this network will attract the participation of other building owners and industry players.” CapitaLand Investment’s chief sustainability officer Lynette Leong said the group had adopted district cooling for 9 of its properties in Singapore and China, and looks forward to further reducing its energy consumption and carbon emissions with the Tampines project. OCBC’s group chief operating officer Lim Khiang Tong said the bank’s involvement was based on OCBC’s purpose to embed “responsible and sustainable business practices into everything we do”. CPF Board’s chief executive officer Augustin Lee, meanwhile, said the project could reduce the statutory board’s carbon emissions by about 6 per cent over 30 years.

Powering the Future SP Group, with its world-class power transmission networks and services, is expanding into the region and Executive Engineer Hor Thon Hern is proud to be part of it. Hor Thon Hern implements equipment renewal projects across Singapore in his role as Executive Engineer. He is an SP Mid-Term Scholar and he holds a Bachelor of Bachelor of Engineering (Electrical & Electronic Engineering) with First Class Honours from Nanyang Technological University. Hor Thon Hern’s love for electrical engineering since young fueled his passion to kickstart a career in the energy sector. When he interned with SP in 2015, he went behind the scenes to uncover first-hand, the importance of maintaining the reliability of the national grid so families can maintain their quality of life. His stint at the substation reaffirmed his decision to jumpstart his career with SP. The success of SP would not have been possible without its skilled and dedicated employees like 27-year-old Hor Thon Hern. The Executive Engineer shared with BrightSparks his engaging work with SP, and the opportunities presented to him as a recipient of the SP Mid-Term Scholarship. How did you get interested in power transmission? When I was a child, I always wondered how a power outlet could power appliances plugged into it. I also enjoyed fixing home appliances like electric fan and extension cord with my father when I was in primary school. It was not until secondary school when I learned about the science behind the flow of electricity which probably laid the foundation of my pursuit of a degree in Electrical & Electronics Engineering in Nanyang Technological University (NTU). During my internship at SP in 2015, I witnessed first-hand the process of the 66kV switchgear installation. From the delivery of the switchgear equipment to the rigorous testing, I was intrigued by the complexity of our transmission system. I had to be at the substation every day during the internship but I actually found it very fulfilling! You are a SP Mid-Term Scholar. In your opinion, why should students pursue a scholarship? Everyone needs a goal in life to stay motivated. A scholarship is like an engine that keeps you moving and driven throughout your undergraduate studies and eventually lands you your dream job! Rewinding a bit, how did you discover the scholarship and why did you shortlist it? I came across the SP scholarship programme while scrolling through the BrightSparks website for career opportunities. After researching on SP, I was particularly inspired by SP’s commitment in renewable energy to safeguard the environment for the future generations. What was the defining factor that made you apply for the scholarship? I felt that SP, as the national grid operator for Singapore, would be an excellent training ground for me to hone my technical skills to become a well-rounded engineer. And, what led to your decision to apply for a mid-term scholarship? It was when I was at a crossroads in my second year of undergraduate studies, uncertain on which modules to specialise in. The SP scholarship included an internship opportunity which I believed would offer a realistic insight into the workings of the energy industry which will help narrow my choice of specialisation. What was your biggest takeaway during your university days at NTU? Looking back, I deeply appreciate the opportunity to learn and discuss ideas with like-minded peers. I was born in a small town in Malaysia and furthered my tertiary education in NTU. University life was an eye-opener as I stepped out of my comfort zone and interacted with people from all walks of life. I slowly honed my life skills such as interpersonal, people management and social intelligence skills. It prepared me for the different situations posed to me during the daily work life now. How did you apply what you have learnt to your current work? My mentor at SP once told me that “every complex system you see is built from fundamentals”. I finally understood what he meant when I saw how our network system works. Whenever I face any engineering challenges, I always return to the fundamentals I’ve learnt to troubleshoot and derive practical solutions. I am so thankful to have a mentor who helped me navigate the first leg of my career! Tell us more about your role and responsibilities. I currently work in the Distribution Projects section which implements equipment renewal projects across Singapore. Our work encompass the renewal and replacement of aging equipment such as switchgear, cables and transformers ahead of time. To do this smoothly, we have to analyze network configurations for risk assessments before implementing the replacement work. The entire process is critical to ensure reliable services to our customers. What is your most significant career achievement to date? I attained the 22kV switching certificate in 2018 which was sponsored by SP. With the certification, it allows me to operate high tension equipment in the SP PowerGrid network. To attain such certification, we had to undergo comprehensive in-house training and one year of practical experience. This is to ensure that we are adequately trained and armed with sufficient technical knowledge before handling the equipment. The training deepened my skillsets and I was able to expand my job scope. What is the work culture at SP? At SP, safety is our highest priority. We are trained to keep ourselves safe at work and also ensure the safety of stakeholders whom we work closely with. SP also embraces innovation. Employees are encouraged to learn new skills such as building apps to improve productivity. One of the apps that I built is used to automate the submission of allowance claims. Now that I am more proficient in building apps, I am being tasked as a trainer for my colleagues who are keen to be app developers too! What possibilities are there for scholars working at your organisation? SP believes in investing in its people to help them be future-ready. Apart from our core engineering work, we are given the opportunity to attend senior management meetings to understand the strategic directives in this dynamic industry. One of SP’s growth areas is in renewable energies. Fresh graduates who share the passion should consider joining SP. What advice would you give to aspiring scholars looking to join SP? If you are inspired to be part of the team to power the nation, SP is the organization to realise your ambition. You will play an important part to maintain a world-class power network that reaches more than 1.6 million residential and business clients in Singapore. SP’s EDGE Programme, which caters to fresh graduates, aims to groom new engineers to grow with the energy utility industry with a structured multi-disciplinary training programme. Fellow engineers whom I speak to exude a sense of pride in upholding the nation’s grid and I believe you will feel the same if you join SP.

SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Green your electricity consumption for a cleaner and healthier world SUSTAINABILITY So, you want to live greener, and in a way that makes a difference to the world we live in. You want to know that your lifestyle choices can make a positive impact – and you need to be able to do it affordably. SP Group’s newly launched My Green Credits™ may just be the answer. My Green Credits, a new feature on the SP Utilities app, lets you purchase “green credits” from local and overseas renewable energy projects to counter the carbon emissions from your electricity consumption. Here are three reasons why you should consider greening your electricity consumption with My Green Credits: 1) Reduce your carbon footprint, your way With My Green Credits, you get to decide how much of your energy consumption you want to green. Simply click on the “My Green Credits” feature on the SP Utilities app, select the renewable energy project, then purchase the amount of “green credits”[1] in the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). RECs are internationally-recognised instruments that validate the amount of green energy produced from renewable energy sources. When you purchase green credits in the form of RECs, the amount of energy you choose to green is matched by an equivalent amount of energy produced at a verified and credible renewable energy source. You can also view the approximate reduction in your carbon emissions as a result of the purchase. This means you can measure your actual contribution towards lowering carbon emissions. Click here to find out how RECs work. 2) Help generate demand for renewable energy When you purchase RECs, you are creating demand for renewable energy. You are also sending a clear signal to the market that you care about where your energy comes from. We’ve seen a growing demand for RECs from companies seeking to reduce their carbon footprint and prioritise their sustainability goals. Studies have shown that more people are buying RECs and supporting the growth of renewable energy projects. With more green energy generated, our reliance on fossil fuels will decrease as a result. Now Singapore households can do the same, and play their part in creating a low carbon, smart energy Singapore by purchasing My Green Credits. 3) Support local and global green energy projects With My Green Credits, you can choose to purchase RECs from local or international renewable energy projects. In Singapore, the government has announced that we are on track to ramp up solar capacity by more than seven times in the next decade. The increased capacity will produce enough solar energy to power up 350,000 households annually[2] by 2030.  My Green Credits also lets you purchase RECs from green projects beyond Singapore’s borders. This spurs more renewable energy generation to surface globally and brings about social benefits such as job creation and infrastructure development to local communities. A low carbon future is critical – and SP is committed to making it happen and empowering everyone to do the same. With My Green Credits, anyone with a utilities account in Singapore can make a difference, conveniently and affordably.  Purchase My Green Credits on the SP Utilities App here.

2 | TOP STORIES The Business Times | Monday, August 12, 2019 Charging power still a chicken-and-egg gripe for electric fleets Private players moving into charging market amid relative paucity of charging points By Annabeth Leow leowhma@sph.com.sg @AnnabethLeowBT and Navin Sregantan navinsre@sph.com.sg @NavinSreBT Singapore DESPITE plans to drive pollutive petrol and diesel cars into history, electric vehicles (EVs) have still struggled to lose their training wheels. The relative paucity of charging points has been held up as a “critical gap” in Singapore’s electric road map. But, even as policymakers look at fleetwide electrification for larger transport companies, private players are moving into the charging market, with the state-owned SP Group leading in its target for charging stations. In a surprise Budget 2019 move, Singapore’s excise duty on diesel was doubled to S$0.20 a litre in February. But more charging points would spur investment in EVs, industry players said – the carrot to the tax hike’s stick. Bain had estimated in a recent report that South-east Asia’s annual investment in charging infrastructure would be US$500 million by 2030. SP Group, which is owned by state investment firm Temasek Holdings, now manages 50 of the country’s roughly 200 public charging points. It is gunning for 1,000 points by next year, including 250 fast-charging DC stations, which can charge a battery in half an hour. SP Group is not the sole provider of public charging points in the city state. Greenlots, owned by Shell since January, first began operations in Singapore in 2010. It runs 34 charging points across 23 spaces, with most in the central business district. Since May, Red Dot Power’s electric charging operations have been funnelled through sister company REVO Charge. It operates seven charging points, with plans to hit 50 points in public and private areas. And, as BlueSG marked its first anniversary in Singapore, the availability of public charging stations was given a boost with the electric car-sharing platform opening up 99 charging points across 25 locations. Meanwhile, Swiss industrial vendor ABB, which already provides the equipment used by SP Group, will supply charging infrastructure for the operators behind two-thirds of “One of the challenges in Singapore is the size of the market – which will limit the logic of having too many different networks competing with one another.” Bain partner Dale Hardcastle Singapore’s 60 electric buses in 2020. Jagwinder Singh, Singapore general manager of overland and distribution for Kuehne + Nagel, called islandwide charging availability “a key consideration” in the logistics multinational’s decision to roll out two light-duty Renault electric vans last year. But Goh Chee Kiong, head of strategic development at SP Group, noted that charging infrastructure – which the Bain report called a chicken-and-egg issue – now makes for “a critical gap, often expressed by prospective EV buyers in their considerations”. “One of the challenges in Singapore is the size of the market – which will limit the logic of having too many different networks competing with one another,” Bain partner Dale Hardcastle later told The Business Times. “It may be more logically and faster to have few networks set up by single parties of consortium to accelerate the pace of development.” Johan de Villiers, managing director for Singapore and South-east Asia at ABB, told BT that, as the sector evolves, “the need for collaboration is greater than ever”, as businesses like his will have to work with manufacturers and operators on issues such as technology standards. But Vijay Sirse, chief executive of REVO Charge, said operators are still trying to build up their own bases. “There are also technical challenges for roaming that must be addressed – for example, the harmonisation of different communication and data transfer technologies,” said Mr Sirse. “Another challenge is the safe and secure exchange of consumer usage data.” Tan Kong Hwee, executive director for mobility at the Economic Development Board (EDB), told BT that charging infrastructure providers must figure out the business case for their own solutions and services. “Thereafter, they could become the first movers in Singapore’s transition to EVs,” he said. “(The) EDB will continue to engage various fleet players – including logistics companies – to understand how fleet electrification could benefit their businesses.” Christopher Leck, deputy group director of technology and industry development at the Land Transport Authority (LTA), had told the Credit Suisse Global Supertrends Conference in April that “it makes sense” to The total cost of ownership for EVs may also yield more favourable economics for commercial fleet owners that have higher-intensity operations with light vehicles or lorries ..., the Bain report says. BT FILE PHOTO focus on electrifying large fleets of buses, lorries and taxis, rather than private, individually owned vehicles. ComfortDelGro Corp, which has some 12,000 cabs on Singapore’s roads, tied up with Greenlots in 2018 to run a fast-charging station through an engineering unit. It plans to open a second such station later this year. These charging stations support ComfortDelGro’s four fully electric Hyundai Ioniq and Kona taxis, which are part of an ongoing trial. Those drivers can also use other Greenlots charging services, and a charging station at Komoco Motors in Alexandra. Bain has suggested that commercial fleets will help to flip the switch in the region, as fleet owners “may develop their own charging infrastructure and only would need to make outside investments (or tap third parties) for top-up charging” elsewhere. The total cost of ownership for EVs may also yield more favourable economics for commercial fleet owners that have higher-intensity operations with light vehicles or lorries – especially in markets such as Singapore with higher fuel costs, the report added. Bloomberg New Energy Finance has previously reported that “long-haul, heavy-duty trucks will be harder to electricify” and may have to tap natural gas and hydrogen cells. Yet EDB executive director Lee Eng Keat, whose portfolio includes Singapore’s logistics industry cluster, noted at the Invest Asia 2019 conference in May that, “as fleet replacements come, the cost of a diesel or a carbon engine versus an electric vehicle is coming to close up”. Bain pointed to ride-hailing firm Grab, which has deals with SP Group and car maker Hyundai to lease and manage 200 electric vehicles here until year-end. It suggested that food delivery fleets could follow Grab’s lead – although, when asked what other sectors might go electric, Mr Hardcastle said that logistics providers will need to wait for more EV options to hit the market, while public buses rely on larger and costlier batteries, making a switch a matter of “a few more years”. But “BlueSG and other car sharing services would be able to capture similar benefits to fleets like Grab or Go-Jek, depending upon their business and leading model”, he added. “When looking at charging capacity for buses and trucks, the industry is currently limited to a maximum charge of 600kW,” noted ABB’s Mr de Villiers. “However, there is also significant potential for evolution in this sector, with 1MW charging possible in the not-too-distant future.” Grab’s fleet electrification was part of a joint government trial – which, a spokesman for the LTA told BT, has found out that shared-car fleets could reap economies of scale “with higher daily mileage and potentially lower running costs” than private vehicles. Mr Leck said that the LTA has worked with infrastructure vendors and hopes to “proliferate these sorts of charging infrastructure” publicly. “But, for most of these companies... the primary purpose, as in the case of BlueSG, is really to provision infrastructure for their own shared vehicles first,” he acknowledged. Meanwhile, Kuehne + Nagel’s Mr Singh said that the group will increase its number of EVs here “as the range of EVs improve, the size of the vehicle increases and there are more charging points along our transportation routes in commercial areas”. With the two electric vans now charged at the group’s logistics hub in Pioneer Crescent, “an increase in the number of charging points across the island would have a positive impact on our plans to increase our EV investment in Singapore”, he said, adding that government funding “would help to defray costs and accelerate the transformation” as well. BT Infographics Are we there yet? The central question regarding the growth of electric vehicle (EV) use in Singapore is whether infrastructure needs to be developed first before interest in EVs pick ups among individuals and business owners. The answer is somewhere in between. In the last couple of years, cheaper running costs and more affordable variants of electric vehicles have sprouted up, together with more public and private charging facilties being built.There were 560 electric cars in Singapore last year compared with 12 in 2016. Electric goods and services vehicles have more than doubled in that time. Here is a breakdown of vehicle charging stations available for public use.

In celebration of its first year here, BlueSG opened up a select group of charging stations for public use. Since late April, drivers of electric vehicles were able to charge their rides at HDB, URA & JTC carparks at 99 charging points across 25 locations in Singapore. While drivers are slowly shifting to electric vehicles, Jenny Lim, BlueSG's commercial and network director notes that currently, BlueSG has 30,000 rentals a month across its 465 BlueCar fleet from 6,000 a year ago. SP Group started operating public charging stations in January and currently has opened 54 electric vehicle charging points across 12 locations with plans to operate 1,000 charging points in Singapore by 2020. The points comprise 50kW direct current (DC) chargers, which are able to fully power up a vehicle in 30 minutes, and 43kW alternating current (AC) chargers. The grid operator's head of strategic development Goh Chee Kiong said that in the past two years, the company started replacing its fleet of vehicles with electric ones and through that, realised that there was a need to address a critical gap in electric vehicle charging infrastructure. An early mover into the electric vehicle charging space, Greenlots commenced operations in 2010 to address the lack of dedicated infrastructure for EV charging. In January, it was acquired by oil major Royal Dutch Shell where it is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell New Energies. It continues to grow its footprint with 34 public charging points across 23 locations, with half of them concentrated in the central business district. It is in discussions with other parties to expand reach and accessibility of electric vehicle charging points in Singapore. It operates many charging points in condominiums and office buildings. Red Dot Power has had its eye on the EV charging business as part of the firm’s strategic plan to offer a one-stop energy solution for buildings. Since May, its electric charging operations are funnelled through sister company REVO Charge, a wholly owned entity of homegrown energy services company vTrium Energy. REVO Charge currently has seven public chargers in operations with the rest of its chargers being private chargers or pending commissioning. Six of those public chargers are at Bukit Timah Shopping Centre and one is at Holland Road Shopping Centre. Two more are under installation at Gardens By The Bay. REVO Charge is on track to hit its target of 50 EV chargers (both private and public) by the end of 2019.

[20201213] Berita Minggu - Masagos: Tampines will be Singapore's first eco townhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:49084f6f-bac3-465a-b27a-7683a3e3c777
2 Berita Minggu | 13 Disember 2020 BERITA Masagos: Tampines bakal bandar eko pertama S’pura �ZULAIQAH ABDUL RAHIM zulabr@sph.com.sg TAMPINES akan menjadi bandar eko pertama Singapura dan penduduknya akan terus digalak, menerusi inisiatif kemampanan yang diperkenalkan, untuk mencapai matlamat itu, kata Menteri Pembangunan Sosial dan Keluarga Encik Masagos Zulkifli Masagos Mohamad semalam. Demikian dikatakan Encik Masagos selaku Penasihat Akar Umbi GRC Tampines di pelancaran pemasangan Papan Eko di lima blok HDB di Tampines. Seramai 633 isi rumah di Tampines akan menjadi yang pertama di Singapura untuk memiliki Papan Eko digital dipasang di blok mereka dan menerima kemas kini masa nyata penggunaan elektrik dan air serta pengeluaran karbon blok mereka. Inisiatif itu adalah hasil kerjasama Majlis Bandaran Tampines dan SP Group, dengan sokongan Temasek dan Kementerian Kemampanan dan Sekitaran (MSE). Berucap kepada media di Blok 878A Tampines Avenue 8 semalam, Encik Masagos berkata: KE ARAH KEMAMPANAN: (Dari kanan) Menteri Pembangunan Sosial dan Keluarga Encik Masagos Zulkifli Masagos Mohamad bersama Pengerusi Majlis Bandaran Tampines, Cik Cheng Li Hui melihat fungsi Papan Eko di lobi lif blok di Tampines semalam. – Foto MAJLIS BANDARAN TAMPINES “Kami ingin membuat Tampines bandar eko pertama Singapura dan dalam perjalanan lima tahun ini, kami akan melakukan projek penting agar penduduk dapat turut serta dan mengamalkan kemampanan.” Pemasangan Papan Eko adalah program perintis untuk membina kesedaran kemampanan dalam kalangan penduduk dan menggalak mereka mendakap tabiat mesra alam. Ia adalah sebahagian besar usaha negara membawa kemampanan kepada masyarakat dan mentransformasikan bandar HDB menjadi bandar eko. Papan yang direka dan dibangunkan pasukan pakar teknologi tenaga SP Group itu akan dipasang di lobi lif setiap blok, memberi penduduk akses mudah kepada tips hijau untuk mengurangkan penggunaan elektrik dan air. “Ini akan membolehkan kami memeriksa dengan maklumat yang ada dan membandingkan prestasi setiap blok. Mudah-mudahan, ia juga membolehkan kami mengubah sikap (penduduk), mungkin melalui kepuasan, supaya pada penghujung hari, mereka tahu berapa banyak tenaga yang telah mereka guna dan dapat sama-sama mengurangkan penggunaan mereka,” tambah Encik Masagos. Sebanyak 10 Papan Eko akan dipasang di Tampines dalam masa dua bulan mendatang. Majlis Bandaran Tampines boleh maklumat dari Papan Eko untuk merancang dan mencapai pengurusan estet yang lebih cekap. Ia juga merancang meningkatkan operasi majlis bandaran itu dengan komponen pengesanan anomali buatan kecerdasan yang akan memberi amaran kepada majlis bandaran sekiranya terdapat sebarang pembaziran sumber atau corak penggunaan yang tidak cekap. Turut hadir di pelancaran semalam Anggota Parlimen GRC Tampines – Pengerusi Majlis Bandaran Tampines, Cik Cheng Li Hui; Mayor Daerah North East, Encik Desmond Choo; dan Setiausaha Parlimen Kanan Kementerian Pengangkutan dan Naib Pengerusi Majlis Bandaran Tampines, Encik Baey Yam Keng.
