Media Release - Using Data To Help Consumers Reduce Their Electricity Consumptionhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/wcm/connect/spgrp/e33d0750-c136-4f0c-9e7c-9df1943d2b0b/%5B20140218%5D+Media+Release+-+Using+Data+To+Help+Consumers+Reduce+Their+Electricity+Consumption.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=
18 February 2014 Using data to help consumers reduce their electricity consumption 1. A new pilot by SP Services (SPS) and the Energy Market Authority (EMA) will enable participating consumers to compare their electricity consumption against the average consumption of their neighbours; and through such comparisons, reduce their electricity usage over time. 2. The pilot will involve users of SPS’ My Utilities Portal (at www.spservices.com.sg), currently numbering at 260,000. These are consumers with e-billing accounts; the number may increase when more consumers sign up for e-bill service with SPS. They could compare their electricity consumption in the last 6 months against the national average consumption and the average consumption of their neighbours living in similar housing types (see Annex A for more details). 3. ‘’With this new comparison feature, we hope to raise customers’ awareness of their consumption pattern and hence encourage better energy-saving habits. This builds on our continuous efforts to equip the public with information on efficient use of energy,’’ said Jeanne Cheng, Managing Director of SP Services. 4. Chee Hong Tat, Chief Executive, EMA said, "Improving energy efficiency and helping consumers to save electricity are important priorities for EMA. These efforts will reduce costs for consumers, enhance Singapore’s energy security and benefit the environment. After gathering feedback from this pilot, we will work with SP Services on redesigning the hardcopy utilities bill to reach out to all 1.2 million households. We also plan to include comparisons of gas and water consumption data in the next phase.” 5. In the coming months, SP Services will be enhancing the pilot with additional features, and making this service available through other channels such as mobile applications. – End – 1 Jointly Issued by: SP Services Limited and Energy Market Authority About Singapore Power and SP Services Singapore Power Group (SP) is a leading energy utility group in the Asia Pacific.

PHOTO: LIANHE ZAOBAO Cha Hae Won The Straits Times PUBLISHED JUN 16, 2021, 7:22 PM SGT SINGAPORE - The National University of Singapore (NUS) will pilot SP Group's digital energy solutions to improve energy efficiency standards. SP Group, a leading utilities provider in the Asia-Pacific, also offers sustainable energy solutions for businesses. Its spokesman said the company has been in talks with NUS to deploy smart energy solutions. The digital energy solutions will be installed at two buildings in NUS' University Town (UTown) - the Education Resource Centre and the Stephen Riady Centre - in the first half of 2022. According to SP Group, both buildings will allow the solutions to be tested effectively, with their various categories of spatial use, such as offices, teaching rooms and sports facilities. They also have commercial tenants. The solutions consist of an online portal and a mobile application tool. The portal allows building facilities managers to keep track of the building's aggregated water and electricity consumption, and resulting carbon emissions. This would aid users to identify ways to reduce their utilities usage. The portal has two prominent features - advanced data analytics and an anomaly detection function. The data analytics feature provides recommendations on saving energy. This will assist building operators to plan more efficient building management. The artificial intelligence-enabled anomaly detection function prevents utilities wastage by alerting managers of anomalies in consumption patterns. Alongside facilities managers, building occupants will also be involved in SP Group's digital energy solutions. The occupants, such as staff, workers and students, as well as those who may visit the buildings for meetings, will be provided with an "At Work" function of the SP Utilities mobile app. The app aims to enhance the occupants' sustainability experience by providing them personalised energy data, such as how much energy and water are being used in specific locations of the building, helping them to be more aware of its consumption performance. Additionally, occupants will be encouraged to adopt green behaviour through the app's quizzes, challenges, rewards and tips on saving energy. The portal allows building facilities managers to keep track of the building's aggregated water and electricity consumption, and resulting carbon emissions. PHOTOS: SP GROUP These digital energy solutions have been developed by SP Group under the Green Buildings Innovation Cluster with the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) awarding it a grant to implement digital solutions to push the limits of buildings' energy efficiency standards. SP Group chief executive Stanley Huang said: "With the support of BCA and operators, we will develop user-centric solutions to advance next-gen green, energy-efficient buildings, and create green communities that will accelerate a carbon neutral future for Singapore."

ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Data Science and AI Deliver Efficient Energy Solutions to Customers INNOVATION Dr Hu Yiqun, Director, SP Digital, solves energy challenges using innovative solutions. Imagine this: An Energy Brain, brimming with intelligence amassed from large volume of energy consumption data from residential households and businesses. Together with complementary data, the Energy Brain analysed the data to offer our customers with data-driven solutions. This scenario, described by Dr Hu Yiqun, Director, SP Digital, showcases a future where data science, coupled with Artificial Intelligence (AI) can improve energy services and business intelligence to customers. “Data is the new currency in our economy. Increasingly, data provides insights and information to solve real-world problems. AI is the way for machines to extract these insights and information automatically. Through the Energy Brain, we successfully helped a shipyard reduce their electricity bills by predicting its electricity load with historical data, and optimising the Energy Storage System (ESS) to deploy energy. This helps to reduce the cost of drawing energy from the grid during peak demand,” explained Dr Hu. “With machine learning, the Energy Brain can make use of data to automate the release of electricity from the batteries, charge it back up when storage runs low,” he added. Another of Dr Hu’s project involves using data science and AI to improve the operational efficiency of SP’s metering and billing processes. By applying machine learning on the retrieval of smart meter data, we can automatically analyse and predict whether a meter reading is reasonable based on customer’s profile and usage patterns. This helps to achieve productivity gains and eliminate unnecessary on-site meter investigations. Over the last 12 months, SP saved close to S$500,000 in productivity costs, and reduced S$15,000 in man-hours. These savings enabled staff to focus on more value-added tasks to better serve our customers. “Another critical function of data and AI is fault diagnosis of our grid. AI-based fault diagnosis enables greater accuracy and shorter response time in locating fault-occurring sections, components or properties. This allows us to safeguard the health of our grid network and enhances our reliability,” shared Dr Hu. The energy sector is evolving and facing digitisation at a very fast pace.  Dr Hu believes that the energy sector can play an important role to combat climate change by adjusting the way energy is being consumed. Prior to joining SP, Dr Hu’s experience spans across academia research and development, banking, payments and e-Commerce. He describes his role at SP as one that can transform a traditional business to a digital enterprise powered by data. People always matter Dr Hu maintains that despite the digital evolution being the way forward, human interpretation of insights is the conduit between data sets and achieving business outcomes. “People matter the most. My goal is to use insights to understand our customers’ needs better, pre-empt issues and fix them before they arise. This, in turn, provides greater value and better service to our customers.” — 28 April 2020 TAGS PEOPLE OF SPSP DIGITALENERGY BRAININNOVATION YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED TO READ SP partners Pyxis to launch direct-current fast charging point for electric harbour crafts Using GET™ to help Mercatus digitally manage their tenant utilities SP Group is partnering Mercatus Co-operative Limited to deploy SP Digital’s Green Energy Tech (GET™) solutions to Mercatus’ properties.

This is key to addressing climate change. BT FILE PHOTO Powering Singapore for the future Advances in digital technologies will usher in the use of smart meters within a Smart Grid, communications networks and data management systems. BY SUBODH MHAISALKAR AND AMIT PATHARE CLIMATE change – a key topic during the Singapore International Energy Week – is the existential threat today. The drumbeats are getting louder, and the world is beginning to listen. On the other hand, with improving living standards, growth in global energy demand is seen as inevitable. These seemingly contradictory priorities of growth and reducing environmental impact are prompting governments and corporations to consider the challenges and opportunities presented by green growth where economic expansion is decoupled from energy usage. A large proportion of the global strategy for reduction in emissions intensity will rely on electrification and deployment of renewable energy. The world’s primary energy supply continues to rely on fossil fuels like coal, gas and oil. Renewables contribute only around a quarter of the energy mix, even though their share is growing. Driven by falling costs of solar cells and wind energy (88 per cent and 54 per cent reduction respectively from 2010 to 2019), investments in renewables capacity continue to outstrip those in new capacity of fossil fuel-based power generation. Battery costs have similarly fallen 86 per cent from 2010 to 2019, making electric vehicles progressively cheaper and easier to provide back-up for solar cells for when the sun doesn’t shine. Energy demand delivered by electricity (for example, transportation, cooking, cooling) will double from 19 per cent in 2017 to 40 per cent in 2050. This shift to renewables and electrification will require a fresh look at the power sector. The current “power grid”, designed in the late 19th century, is uni-directional where energy flows from central power plants to the customers. In Singapore, power-generation companies produce electricity which is transported to customers via the power grid owned and operated by SP Group. Integrating renewables and catering for large variable loads (such as charging of electric cars and buses) have created the need for the advent of the “Smart Grid”. THE SMART GRID Recent years have seen numerous advances in digital technologies. These advances include smart meters, communications networks and data management systems that enable two-way communication between utilities and customers. Better monitoring and control have enhanced both energy efficiency and reliability. The Smart Grid is thus an electricity network that enables integration of renewables and uses smart technologies to better serve consumers. SP Group’s Smart Grid Index 2019 compares 75 utilities from 35 countries. US and European utilities were ranked higher than many Asian utilities. This could be attributed to the US/European utilities’ continued focus on green energy adoption. Singapore was ranked 33rd (score of 66 per cent), while utilities from the Asean countries were ranked between the 50s and 60s with scores in the range of 45-50 per cent. Asia-Pacific utilities have also made significant improvements in Distributed Energy Resources, security and customer empowerment and satisfaction. US/European utilities fare better in areas including monitoring and control, data analytics, renewables integration, green energy, security as well as consumer empowerment. By one indicator – the System Average Interruption Duration Index which measures the average duration of interruption in power supply, indicated in minutes per customer – Singapore is the undisputed world leader. The Republic’s grid performance, measured in terms of both the frequency and duration of grid outages, is far better than that of even the other cities in the top 10 – including Tokyo, Frankfurt, London, Taipei and Hong Kong. Singapore’s high performance may be explained by our urban, high-density networks, continuous investments in advanced technological solutions, and the use of underground cables instead of overhead lines that are vulnerable to natural disasters. Singapore’s approach towards Smart Grids prioritises sustainable growth, energy security and affordability. The grid charges in Singapore for the average consumer are among the lowest in the world. Some consumers may be willing to pay more for fewer outages, but it is neither feasible to charge different prices according to the quality of electricity supply nor socially possible to impose high charges on everyone. As Singapore continues to strike a balance between providing reliable supply and cost to consumers, it is modernising its grid and exploring opportunities that can be pursued in renewables, data analytics, control and consumer empowerment. THE SMART GRID OF TOMORROW Source: The Business Times © Singapore Press Holdings Limited. Permission required for reproduction. Levelling up, the Smart Grid of tomorrow is envisioned to be a technology leap that will usher in the Internet of Energy, with the capability to manage millions of connected devices at all levels of the grid. Replacing today’s analog power-line transformers with power electronics will allow bi-directional energy flows, enable intelligent and remote network management, and usher in the era of a fully digital power grid. The grid will also require an added buffer of storage and demand sinks and an array of power devices that will allow it to absorb massive swings in supply and demand and cater for intermittency of renewables. These hardware improvements will be optimised by a range of software solutions driven by stochastic algorithms that integrate supply and demand movements. We can think of it in terms of a new Artificial Intelligence “brain” for the grid that can: ■ absorb and structure the vast amounts of data being continually generated by a multitude of devices; ■ deploy platforms and protocols for these devices to “communicate” with each other; and ■ adapt, learn and evolve in order to keep improving grid efficiency without compromising on security. Transactive platforms could potentially use blockchain technology with embedded encryption for power transactions enabled by ultra-fast 5G telecommunications networks. As Singapore’s challenges are markedly different from America’s and Europe’s, we require a different approach. Feed-in-tariffs, microgrids, natural disasters and transmission over hundreds of kilometres are not top challenges to the Singapore power grid. Instead, Singapore has to deploy and integrate renewables into its power system. Although the architectures of future grids are still emerging, Singapore’s priorities include clean energy generation, energy efficiency and grid resilience. Initiatives to support these include power generation from natural gas and potentially hydrogen in the future, deployment of solar cells coupled with energy storage, building and industrial energy efficiency, and electrification of transport. The time for incremental efforts is gone. A groundbreaking shift in clean energy deployment, underpinned by the right supporting infrastructure for scaleup of these solutions, is the way. In keeping with the Smart Nation vision, the Smart Grid offers an unparalleled opportunity to leverage the full potential of electrification that enhances security, reliability and affordability. This is key to addressing climate change and delivering sustainable development for Singapore. ❚ The writers are from the Energy Research Institute (ERI), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) of Singapore.

At the Concept Lab, breakthrough ideas to solve energy challenges faced by SP and corporate customers are refined, tested and co-developed with experts from industry and academia. “We designed and built the part-lab, part-office space from scratch. We have a lab to test new concepts and technologies, and also an office space to see them at work,” explains Brandon Chia, who led the setting up of the lab in 2018. One of the major breakthroughs was a Hydrogen Energy System that powers the first zero-emission building in Southeast Asia. The system uses solar energy to extract hydrogen from water, safely stores the hydrogen and generates electricity when needed. A three-month pilot in 2019 by the team at Concept Lab and the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) tackled the perennial problem of staff at one section of an office feeling warm while those in another are wrapped up in sweaters. By using a combination of sensors and artificial intelligence, temperature uniformity was achieved at the SIT’s Dover campus. This microclimate control technology reduced energy usage by more than 30 per cent. Following its success, plans to potentially scale up this technology at the SIT’s campus in Punggol Digital District are underway. “Innovation isn’t simply about new technology, it is also about relooking the business model and figuring out how new ideas can be made commercially viable and sustainable,” he explained.  The SP scholar’s diverse experience since he first joined SP in 2002 helps him consider innovation from different angles.

A former SP cable-jointing workshop at Woodleigh has been upcycled to be the birthplace of cutting-edge discoveries. The 23,000 sq ft site space is repurposed to be SP’s “Concept Lab”, and acts as a collaboration space for its open innovation team of 40 and co-development partners. At the Concept Lab, breakthrough ideas to solve energy challenges faced by SP and corporate customers are refined, tested and co-developed with experts from industry and academia. “We designed and built the part-lab, part-office space from scratch. We have a lab to test new concepts and technologies, and also an office space to see them at work,” explains Brandon Chia, who led the setting up of the lab in 2018. One of the major breakthroughs was a Hydrogen Energy System that powers the first zero-emission building in Southeast Asia. The system uses solar energy to extract hydrogen from water, safely stores the hydrogen and generates electricity when needed. A three-month pilot in 2019 by the team at Concept Lab and the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) tackled the perennial problem of staff at one section of an office feeling warm while those in another are wrapped up in sweaters.

Introduction This section provides information applicable to solar PV generators who install solar PV systems to inject all electricity generated into the grid (e.g. solar farm). A brief summary of the relevant processes can be found in the flow chart below. Please refer to the following sections for more information. For more information on the policy and regulatory framework for solar, please refer to EMA’s website. September 2018 2 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators Figure 1: Overview Process for Solar PV Generators Start Solar PV owner to engage Licensed Electrical Worker (LEW) to be responsible for the electrical works associated with the solar PV system Appointed LEW to submit the required documents to SP Services (SPS) (refer to Connection Requirements section for more details) Generation Capacity > 1 MWac? Yes No PowerGrid (SPPG) to evaluate and discuss with LEW on the technical requirements and specifications of the solar PV system pertaining to PQ requirements Comply with technical requirements? Consumers to sign Connection Agreement No • No Electricity Generation Licence required • Register for the applicable options available for market participation and settlement (refer to Market Settlement section for more details) • Yes SPS to inform LEW to proceed with Turn- On application • All required documents need to be submitted and approved before Turn-On. • Apply for the applicable Generation Licence (refer to Electricity Generation Licence section for more details) • Register with the Energy Market Company (EMC) to receive payment for excess electricity sold back to the grid (refer to Market Settlement section for more details) September 2018 3 Turn-On Solar PV – User Guide for Generators 2. Electricity Generation Licence The electricity licensing requirements for solar PV systems will be based on the aggregate of the Alternating Current (AC) inverter capacities (“installed generation capacity”) at the point of connection 1 to the grid. Any person who engages in the generation of electricity with a solar PV system with installed generation capacity of 1 MWac or more but less than 10 MWac is required to apply to EMA for a Wholesaler (Generation) Licence. For installed generation capacity of 10 MWac or more, he has to apply for a Generation Licence. All relevant licenses should be obtained before any turn-on of solar PV installations. A summary of the licensing requirements is shown in the table below. Table 1: Licensing Requirements for Solar PV System Installed Capacity of Solar PV System Below 1 MWac Connected to the Power Grid? Yes No 1 MWac or more but less Yes than 10 MWac No Yes 10 MWac or more No * An Electrical Installation Licence may still be required. Type of Licence* Exempted Wholesaler (Generation) Licence Exempted Generation Licence Application for the wholesaler or generation licence can be made on EMA’s website: http://www.ema.gov.sg/Licensees_Electricity_Licences.aspx 3. Electrical Installation An electrical installation refers to any electrical wiring, fitting or apparatus used for the conveyance and control of electricity in any premises. A solar PV system installed within such premises forms part of the consumer’s electrical installation and should comply with the requirements stipulated in the Electricity Act (Cap. 89A), the Electricity (Electrical Installations) Regulations and the Singapore Standard CP5 Code of Practice for Electrical Installations. 1 The point of connection refers to the point at which the solar PV system is connected directly or indirectly to SP PowerAsset’s substation. September 2018 4 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators All electrical work for an electrical installation, including a solar PV system, must be undertaken or carried out by a Licensed Electrical Workers (LEWs). Such electrical work includes new wiring, rewiring and extensions which have to be tested before the supply is turned on. When consumer needs any electrical work to be done at his premises, he is advised to check that the person whom he intends to engage to undertake or perform the electrical work has a valid electrical worker licence issued by the Authority. It is an offence for a person: i. To carry out or caused to be carried out any electrical work unless he holds a valid electrical worker licence; or ii. To engage knowingly any person who is not a licensed electrical worker to carry out any electrical work. For more details, you may wish to refer to ELISE website for the list of LEW. Electrical Installation Licence LEW will need to apply for an Electrical Installation Licence for the installation if the usage or operation of an electrical installation exceeds 45 kVA of approved load for non-domestic purposes. Electrical installations are licensed to ensure that owners/users of certain electrical installations engage a LEW to take charge of and maintain their electrical installations for reason of safety. A grid-connected solar PV system is also categorised as an electrical installation. A new solar PV system will be covered under the existing electrical installation licence upon connection to the installation by the LEW taking charge of the electrical installation. If there is no existing electrical installation licence, the LEW shall apply for electrical installation licence for his solar PV system. Safety requirements Currently under the electrical installation licensing scheme, the consumer’s appointed LEW is required to carry out safety inspection and certification of the electrical installation, including the solar PV system, according to the conditions specified under the electrical installation licence. Solar PV systems require regular inspection and maintenance to ensure that the system remains efficient and safe for operation. In most cases, equipment manufacturers will provide maintenance guidelines for their specific components. It is important to ensure that the maintenance requirement is carried out according to the recommendation and certified by the LEW. September 2018 5 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators 4. Connection Requirements If you intend to connect and operate your solar PV system in parallel to the power grid, your appointed LEW will have to complete the online Application Form and submit the following documents to SPS via Singapore Power (SP) eBusiness Portal: • Document Checklist and Declaration of Compliance to SP Powergrid’s (SPPG) Technical Requirements • Application for Net Export Rebate Form • Letter of Consent • PQ Compliance Report • Inverter(s) Specifications • Solar panel(s) Specifications • Inverter(s) Type Test Reports (Harmonics, Flicker, DC Injection) • Single Line Diagram (from PV system to Point of Common Coupling (PCC) • PSO Data Form (only applicable for solar PV systems 1 MWac and above) • Certificate of Compliance (only applicable for licensed installation who are eligible to appoint their LEW to commission the solar PV system) • Commissioning Declaration (only applicable for licensed installation who are eligible to appoint their LEW to commission the solar PV system) Thereafter, your appointed LEW will have to consult SPPG on the connection scheme and technical requirements. You will need to sign a Connection Agreement with the Transmission Licensee for the generation connection to your PV generation facility. September 2018 6 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators The simplified connection and turn-on application process for solar PV generators are illustrated in Figure 2 and 3. Figure 2: Application Process for Solar PV Generator Connection Start Appointed LEW to submit relevant documents to SPS Consumers to sign Connection Agreement SPPG to evaluate technical specifications of the solar PV system pertaining to PQ requirements Compliance with technical requirements?

Yes No LEW to commission the solar PV system LEW to submit Certificate of Compliance (COC) and Commissioning Declaration of solar PV system within 7 days of solar PV system commissioning to SPPG SPS to witness the commissioning of solar PV system on the scheduled Turn-On date End End September 2018 8 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators 5. Market Settlement Similar to other commercial generators, a standalone solar PV generator is required to register with the Energy Market Company (EMC) as Market Participant (MP); and to register their Solar Generation Facility, in order to receive payment for export of electricity into the grid. They will be paid nodal price for the selling of solar electricity back to the grid, and are subjected to the applicable market charges. The required registration documents can be found below. Market Participant Registration • MP Registration form • Signed PSO-MP Agreement and Generation Facility Operating (GFO) Agreement with PSO (if applicable) Generation Facility Registration • The Generation Facility Registration form (which includes PSO Standing Data Form for IGS) • Approved Connection Agreement from SP PowerAssets • Signed MSSL-MP Agreement All the documents should be approved before the solar PV system is turned on. A summary of the market payments and charges for such installations can be found in the table below. Table 2: Market Payment and Charges for Standalone Solar PV Generators Applicable Payments / Charges Energy Generation Energy Consumption Spinning Reserves Regulation Reserves (i.e. AFP) EMC Fees Power System Operator (PSO) Fees Market Support Services (MSS) Charge Description Energy Payment / Charges Nodal Price (to be paid based on net export) Uniform Singapore Electricity Prices (USEP) + Hourly Energy Uplift Charge (HEUC) (to be charged based on net import) Reserves Charges Only applicable for solar PV systems more than 10 MWac (subject to change based on the New Pricing Mechanism Framework) Half-hourly AFP (to be charged based on gross generation and gross consumption) Non-Reserves Market Charges Yearly revised EMC Fees (to be charged based on net import or net export) Daily revised PSO Fees (to be charged based on net import or net export) Yearly revised MSS Charge (to be charged based on net import only) September 2018 9 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators Applicable Payments / Charges Monthly Energy Uplift Charge (MEUC) Use of System (UOS) Uncontracted Capacity Charge (High-Tension & Above Network only) Description Monthly revised MEUC prices (to be charged based on net import only) Grid Charges Yearly revised UOS Charge (to be charged based on import channel) Cost is dependent on type of backup required 6. Intermittency Pricing Mechanism Given the intermittent nature of solar PV, reserves from conventional power sources are required to ensure system stability. For example, cloud cover or shadows may cause solar PV output to drop quickly, which requires the need for reserves to make up for the shortfall. Without the back-up through reserves sources, consumers are exposed to the risk of power disruptions, which happened in other countries with large amounts of intermittent generation. To ensure the sustainable growth of solar, a balance has to be struck between the benefits of solar generation and the intermittency costs it imposes on the system. Hence, it is appropriate to consider a mechanism, Intermittency Pricing Mechanism (IPM), to allocate the fair share of reserves costs to solar. Upon its implementation, the IPM will apply to all IGS, except for certain groups which the EMA had previously indicated that would not be subject to the IPM. The groups include: a. Residential consumers with embedded solar PV systems below 1 MWac; and b. Non-residential consumers with embedded solar PV systems connected to the system on or before 31 January 2018, unless (i) they retrofit their IGS systems such that re-commissioning by SP PowerGrid would be required in the process; or (ii) 25 years from the commissioning date of their existing IGS systems, whichever occurs earlier. More details on the IPM can be found in EMA’s Consultation Paper. September 2018 10 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators 7. Monitoring Requirements With the expected increase in solar PV systems in Singapore, the Power System Operator (PSO) would need to manage the intermittent nature of such sources to ensure that the security and reliability of the power system is not compromised. Most importantly, PSO also needs to ensure that sufficient reserve capacity is available to respond to sudden fluctuations in solar output. Hence, PSO shall require solar PV systems with an installed capacity of 1 MWac and above at each site/facility to provide the Active Power output (AC-side) of its solar PV system(s), sampled at one-minute intervals and solar irradiance from sensor installed in close proximity to the PV panels. For more detailed technical requirement, please contact EMA at EMA_PSO_EMS@ema.gov.sg. Localised Network Limit As there may be physical constraints of each network ring, there could be a limit to the amount of solar PV systems that the network circuit can support. Therefore, depending on the limitations in that area, the permissible capacity of solar PV systems in each location may differ. Hence, parties who wish to invest in solar PV systems should check if there are possible network constraints in their preferred locations, before making their investment decisions. 8. Decommissioning Requirements If you intend to decommission the entire solar PV system installed in your premises any time after they have been connected to the Transmission System, your appointed LEW will have to complete the decommissioning form and submit to SP PowerGrid Ltd at least 30 days in advance before the intended decommission commences. However, if the intent is to revise the solar PV capacity installed in your premises any time after they have been connected to the Transmission System, your appointed LEW will have to complete the online Application Form and submit the following documents to SPS via Singapore Power (SP) eBusiness Portal: • Document Checklist and Declaration of Compliance to SP PowerGrid’s (SPPG) Technical Requirements • Application for Net Export Rebate Form • Letter of Consent • PQ Compliance Report • Inverter(s) Specifications • Solar panel(s) Specifications September 2018 11 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators • Inverter(s) Type Test Reports (Harmonics, Flicker, DC Injection) • Single Line Diagram (from PV system to Point of Common Coupling (PCC) • PSO Data Form (only applicable for solar PV systems 1 MWac and above) • Certificate of Compliance (only applicable for licensed installation who are eligible to appoint their LEW to commission the solar PV system) • Commissioning Declaration (only applicable for licensed installation who are eligible to appoint their LEW to commission the solar PV system) September 2018 12 Solar PV – User Guide for Generators 9.

A2 | THE BIG STORY | THE STRAITS TIMES | FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 2023 | PUB joins initiative that rewards businesses for lowering electricity usage Ang Qing National water agency PUB will join a new initiative to reward businesses for lowering their electricity usage as part of efforts to help ease demand for energy on the power grid. On Thursday, PUB said it will join the Energy Market Authority’s (EMA) Demand Side Management Sandbox initiative for energy-intensive commercial and industrial firms. This will make it the first government agency to take part in the initiative, which comprises two programmes and runs until January 2025. PUB will partner national grid operator SP Group to participate in both programmes to cut energy usage during peak periods or when supply from renewable energy sources is not consistent. The first is the Demand Response programme, which incentivises companies to reduce their electricity demand voluntarily when wholesale electricity prices spike. The second, the Interruptible Load programme, rewards companies for reducing some electrical load during periods of tight power generation supply. When demand is well managed, said EMA in 2022, businesses and households are expected to benefit, paying lower electricity bills in the long run. PUB chief executive Goh Si Hou said the initiative aligns with the agency’s bid to raise energy efficiency in its operations. This is becoming more important, as more energy-intensive water sources like Newater and desalination are tapped to meet future growth in water demand. He said: “It will provide PUB with greater flexibility in managing energy demand, and allow us to achieve cost savings. At the same time, our participation will support the national effort for energy resilience, and bring system-level benefits to all users.” For a start, the Marina Raw Water Pumping Station at Kallang Basin will participate in the programmes, PUB said on Thursday. Each of the four pumps at the station can transfer 30 million gallons of water daily, and require about 1.3 megawatts of power, or the equivalent of powering about 110 four-room Housing Board flats, The Marina Raw Water Pumping Station, which pumps water from Marina Reservoir (left) to Upper Peirce Reservoir, will participate in the energy saving programmes. PHOTO: PUB said PUB. The station transfers raw water from Marina Reservoir to Upper Peirce Reservoir to maintain optimal water levels in the reservoirs. Its daily energy consumption varies depending on the number of pumps in operation. A deal inked between SP and PUB on Wednesday will ensure that when the electricity load needs to be curtailed, SP will reduce or interrupt demand from its Marina Bay district cooling ice thermal energy storage systems and its partners, including PUB. Once on board, PUB will work closely with SP in the first few months to calibrate the daily operational process. EMA chief executive Ngiam Shih Chun said: “As we transform our energy sector to be more sustainable, it is also important that consumers are empowered to optimise and reduce their electricity consumption, in exchange for a share of the system-wide benefits. We encourage more consumers to come on board the programmes to enjoy these benefits.” Businesses that consume at least 100kW of electricity an hour are eligible for this initiative. The monthly energy consumption of a four-room HDB flat, for instance, is about 360kWh. Businesses will pay a penalty if they under-deliver on the electrical load they promised to reduce. As at the end of March, five buildings have registered for EMA’s Demand Response programme and eight buildings come under its Interruptible Load programme. In October 2022, an EMA spokesman said that if the initiative proves to be successful, it could be made permanent. aqing@sph.com.sg
