SP Group Accelerates Betagro's Clean Energy Transition with Large-Scale Rooftop Solar Deploymenthttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/SP-Group-Accelerates-Betagro-s-Clean-Energy-Transition--with-Large-Scale-Rooftop-Solar-Deployment-
Media Release SP Group Accelerates Betagro's Clean Energy Transition with Large-Scale Rooftop Solar Deployment Bangkok and Singapore, 25 July 2024 – SP Group is shoring up Asia’s clean energy transition with its latest large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) project in Thailand. The leading utilities group and sustainable energy solutions provider in Asia Pacific and Singapore is partnering Betagro – Thailand's leading integrated food company – on an 8.2 Megawatt Peak (MWp) installation at seven Betagro factories in Lopburi, Nakhon Ratchasima, Songkhla, Lampang and Chachoengsao. SP will install close to 13,000 solar panels that will generate about 11 Gigawatt-Hours (GWh) of clean energy per year – equivalent to about eight per cent of the total electricity consumed across the seven factories. When operational in Q3 2024, this will enable Betagro to reduce its carbon emissions by 4,400 tons and achieve substantial energy cost savings of about $17 million Thai Baht (or SGD $630,500) annually. Betagro has been actively pursuing initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint and enhance its environmental stewardship. Committed to responsible business practices, the company has set its sights on leveraging renewable energy sources to power its operations and cut carbon emissions. “Betagro is a household name in Thailand and we are pleased to partner them on their sustainability journey,” said Mr. Brandon Chia, Managing Director of Southeast Asia & Australia, SP Group. “We see great potential for the food and beverage industry to sustainably power their operations, save energy costs and lower carbon emissions. We look forward to enabling commercial and industrial customers like Betagro to reduce their carbon footprint and achieve their green targets by leveraging our comprehensive suite of solutions and strong operational experience.” In Thailand to date, SP has solar projects in operation and under construction with key partners such as Asia Composite Material, Compact International, Malee Group and SAICO. These partnerships with companies in various industries have contributed to a reduction of more than 24,000 tons of carbon emissions annually. In addition, SP has a pipeline of over 200 MWp of solar PV projects across Thailand. The company has scored its first district cooling project in Thailand at Government Complex Centre Zone C, part of its joint venture with Banpu NEXT. SP has also signed a partnership with Rangsit University to deploy a comprehensive suite of integrated and sustainable energy solutions.

SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Electricity’s First Responders RELIABILITY SP Group’s Principal Engineer Jerome Choong is one of the first at the scene should an electricity disruption happen. Five-year-old Jovan thinks his father Jerome Choong, an SP Group Principal Engineer, is a cross between an electrician and a magician. “He thinks that when people have no electricity, they call me, and I make it appear,” laughs the 35-year-old, who takes care of the electricity distribution network in the north zone, which spans the area stretching from Boon Lay to Punggol. “Jovan used to get annoyed when I left abruptly during family gatherings. Now, he is proud of what I do,” says Jerome who also has a two-year-old son. Principal Engineer Jerome Choong (right) and son Jovan Jerome has been with SP for seven years and leads a unit of 30. He is one of the first on site when an outage happens. His priority is to work with his unit to quickly and safely get supply back up. While prevention is key and every effort is made to keep trouble at bay, it is important to be prepared for the unexpected. It helps the team spring into action without delay should something happen. His car boot is testimony to his commitment – half holds a stroller for his two-year-old, and the other half, the tools he needs, from cable insulation testing equipment to multi-meters. His iPad stores documents, schematic drawings and operations manuals. His network of fellow engineers is a Whatsapp message away. Always on the alert, Jerome forms his recovery plan as he drives to the site where an incident has occurred, helped by information on the location, number of customers affected, and the substations and breakers he should zoom in on. This is provided by the Electricity Service Centre and Distribution Control Centre, which he works closely with. Principal Engineer Jerome Choong checking on switchgears in a substation. For every incident, he and his colleagues investigate what went down, isolate and test the equipment, and start on repairs or replacements. “We explore every what-if scenario,” Jerome says, “and have back-ups to the back-up plans.” While the control centre can remotely resolve some issues, manual intervention by Jerome’s team is sometimes required, and checks are always done before supply sources are switched to ensure safety. Replacement parts are also tested before being connected and energised. Only then is the power transferred back on to customers. Work does not end when an issue is resolved, and even a late-night activation often sees him back on duty the next morning. In the day, Jerome oversees the maintenance of the switchgears and transformers of the high-voltage network. He also regularly engages commercial and industrial customers with higher electricity consumption requirements. The job keeps him on his toes, he says, as does the need to evolve with his role. The rise of renewables, for one, has meant having to integrate non-traditional sources of electricity onto the grid. “I love solving problems, and we seldom encounter two situations that are exactly the same. We’re constantly learning, and re-learning.

[20140211] The Straits Times - 'Making Power Accessible'https://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/wcm/connect/spgrp/5b49d30d-841e-4eb1-ad96-8a81624efe90/%5B20140211%5D+The+Straits+Times+-+'Making+Power+Accessible'.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=
‘Making power accessible’ Singapore Power engineer Dennis Khah combines his passion and desire to make a meaningful contribution A LOVE of mathematics and physics led Mr Dennis Khah to work in one of the most dynamic industries in singapore. As an engineer in singapore Power (sP), he is part of a team that ensures that all households get their electricity and gas supply. “With the increasing focus on developments such as renewable energy and smart grid, singapore’s energy landscape is poised for exciting changes on the horizon,” says the 25-year-old. His choice of a career was seeded as a teenager with a love for robotics, solving problems using mathematics and physics theories and dabbling in electronic circuits. He says: “My passion for power engineering was fuelled when I joined university, as I realised I could apply my interest towards the real challenges of operating singapore’s power network, tackling increasing energy demands and achieving environmental sustainability. Joining sP became a natural choice.” Now, not only is he in an industry which is set to shine even brighter, the graduate from the Nanyang Technological University’s school of Electrical and Electronic Engineering is also benefiting from efforts to groom the next generation of leaders for the power industry. He is part of a select group of bright sparks in sP’s EDGE Programme. It aims to quickly prepare its engineers for leadership by exposing them to the different facets of the organisation, at a high level and on the ground. Currently with the network management division of sP PowerGrid, Mr Khah helps to ensure that people in the northern part of singapore get their electricity. He has been busy on the ground conducting ‘healthchecks’ on cables, detecting low voltage cable faults in the network, carrying out repair works and responding to customer feedback. He says: “sP takes a ground-up approach when it comes to grooming fresh graduates and we are given the challenge of working in key operational areas to gain exposure and practical experience. “I particularly enjoy these attachments, as we get to work with engineers who work round-the-clock to maintain singapore’s electricity network.” Being in the EDGE Programme, he got to attend Workforce skills Qualification (WsQ) workshops to hone his leadership skills, and technical skills in areas like how to detect and locate underground power cables. Working with him are a close-knit team of colleagues and supervisors, some of whom he got to know better via orientation and Outward Bound school programmes organised by their employer. Mr Khah says: “We work with colleagues and mentors who are always happy to share their knowledge and experiences. The trust my bosses have in me, and the camaraderie amongst colleagues have empowered me to perform in my role effectively, which is important for newcomers to an organisation.” He adds: “In sP, there is also a strong emphasis on safety in all that we do. We take My passion in power engineering was fuelled when I joined university, as I realised I could apply my interest towards the real challenges of operating Singapore’s power network, tackling increasing energy demands and achieving environmental sustainability. Joining SP became a natural choice. — Mr Dennis Khah (right), engineer, Singapore Power pride in upholding the highest safety standards and best practices.” What he does on the job is crucial in keeping singapore going, he notes. “In singapore, we tend to take electricity for granted. The light always comes on at the flick of the switch. But being part of sP has helped me understand and better appreciate the tremendous amount of effort by a huge team that goes into making this possible. I liken my job to that of powering the nation. We make power accessible, whenever and wherever it is needed.” – Wong Sher Maine Upping the competitive EDGE Singapore Power started its EDGE (Engineering Development for Graduates) programme in July 2013 to groom its young talents for leadership positions. In their first year of joining the company, EDGE engineers undergo a customised structured training programme, which Photo: WEE tY comprises a series of theory-based lessons, short attachments and on-the-job training so they are quickly exposed to the workings of the company. At the end of the structured training, they will be rotated to critical operational areas such as network development and network management.
