Media Release SP GROUP SETS UP FIRST ZERO-EMISSION BUILDING POWERED BY GREEN HYDROGEN IN SOUTHEAST ASIA Singapore, 30 October 2019 – SP Group (SP) has established the first zero-emission building in Southeast Asia that is powered by green hydrogen. Located at SP’s training centre at Woodleigh Park, the self-sustaining building is 100% powered with renewable energy via an innovative Hydrogen Energy System and is disconnected from the national electricity grid. Mr Brandon Chia, Head, Centre of Excellence, SP Group said: “Buildings contribute 40 per cent of energy related carbon emissions worldwide 1 . The Hydrogen Energy System provides a safe and compact way of storing green hydrogen which powers the region’s first zero-emission building. We believe this can be a significant contributor toward Singapore’s climate change pledge to cut national emissions intensity by 36 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030.” The challenge to achieving zero emission The world in its fight against climate change is using various means to lower carbon emissions. One way is to use renewable energy sources. However, in urban places such as Singapore, due to limited land and inconsistent solar energy, achieving zero emission with 100% renewable energy is extremely challenging. Zero-emission solution An alternative is hydrogen as a green energy source. In the Hydrogen Energy System used by SP, electricity from green sources, such as solar, is used to conduct electrolysis. The hydrogen generated from this process is bonded with special metal alloy powders to form metal hydride, compacted and stored in tanks. When electricity supply is required, the stored hydrogen from the metal hydride tanks is slowly released and converted to electricity via fuel cells. As green energy sources are used for electrolysis, this entire process of converting hydrogen to electricity is 100 per cent green, with zero carbon emission. 1 The buildings and building construction sectors combined are responsible for nearly 40% of total direct and indirect CO2 emissions (International Energy Agency). 1 Safe hydrogen storage While there have been other energy systems using hydrogen as a fuel, the key challenge of hydrogen lies in having a storage solution that is safe for deployment in highly-urbanised areas such as Singapore. The system uses special metal alloy as a storage medium to bond with hydrogen. This allows for the storage of a large volume of hydrogen at a much lower pressure over a long period of time without any deterioration. When electricity is needed, the stored hydrogen is released in a slow and regulated manner, making it safer and more compact to be stored in an urban setting. Encourages greater mix of renewable energy The Hydrogen Energy System can mitigate electricity supply fluctuations and intermittency issues – common shortcomings of renewable energy. When there is surplus renewable energy, it can be stored in the form of hydrogen and converted back to electricity when there is a deficit of renewable energy. This ensures that the grid remains stable even with a greater mix of renewable energy introduced, hence encouraging the use of green energy. SP is working with Marubeni Corporation and Tohoku University on the Hydrogen Energy System with special metal alloy storage tanks from Japan, and to customise and integrate it for use in Singapore. -Ends- 2 About SP Group SP Group is a leading energy utilities group in the Asia Pacific.

SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Shaping the evolution of electricity meters in the past 25 years RELIABILITY Vice President of SP Services’ Metering Branch Razali Bin Mohd. “If my coral dies, you pay”, is a customer’s comment that 51-year-old Razali Bin Mohd recalls in an unforgettable experience during his earlier days as an engineer. His team was carrying out electricity meter replacement works then. In this unique situation, when the customer was informed that the power supply will be temporarily disrupted during the replacement, she requested for a mobile electrical generator to keep her coral tanks maintained at four degrees Celsius during the servicing period. Handling a multitude of customer requests, is part and parcel of stakeholder management in Razali’s job at SP Group (SP). Over his 25 years with SP, the Vice President of SP Services’ Metering Branch has seen the evolution of analogue electricity meters manually read by meter readers to smart meters that can now be monitored remotely. As of May 2022, Razali and his team have deployed over 650,000 smart electricity meters islandwide. In the next few years, all 1.4 million residential households in Singapore will be equipped with smart meters. “I cherish this experience the most as we took great lengths to incept this idea and eventually see it come to fruition. As this project had a nation-wide impact, I remembered we went to the Parliament to present our plans to the Mayors, and convinced the relevant agencies to support our deployment plan.” Razali now has another ambitious task ahead of him. Besides rolling out smart electricity meters nationwide, his team also won the contract for Singapore’s first large-scale smart water meter programme for PUB in Apr 2021. Over the next 15 years, they will be developing the metering system, enhancing the wireless communications network, deploying, operating and maintaining over 300,000 smart water meters. “We faced intense competition against strong contenders and various challenges during the tender process. Our strong teamwork and expertise in smart electricity meter deployment has enabled us to secure this strategic partnership. The late-night calls with counterparts from different parts of the world were all worth it!” Interestingly, his career options after graduating as an electrical engineering graduate from Nanyang Technological University were between a cadet pilot at a leading airline and an engineer at SP. He received SP’s letter of offer on the day of his final round of interview for the cadet pilot position. “I just went with my gut feel and I am convinced now looking back, it was meant to be.” he recalled fondly.   Razali with his colleagues from the metering team at the old St James District Office in 2011. Back in the late 90s, Razali’s key responsibilities included working with contractors to install and maintain meters for residential and commercial customers, procure new meters, handle project tenders and manage customer feedback.  The implementation of smart electricity meters in Singapore has been the highlight of his career. Razali with colleagues from SP Services and SP Digital on an overseas trip to Itron’s office in San Francisco, to adopt best practices from the implementation of the US’ smart meter programme. Before the opening of Singapore’s electricity retail market in 2014, Razali and his team travelled to San Francisco and Melbourne to learn how these cities deployed smart meters successfully. “The study trip shortened our learning curve and prevented potential pitfalls.” SP is one of the first few utility companies in the world that has separated its communication network card from the meter. In other parts of the world, communication modules are integrated within the meters. Hence, if the communication part fails, the entire meter must be replaced. In Singapore, the decision was to adopt a “modular” structure for parts to be replaced separately if they are faulty. This will not only save cost, but also eliminate supply interruption and reduce inconvenience to the customers.

Razali is thankful for all the growth opportunities at SP and is committed to continue rising to the challenges in the evolving energy industry. “I wake up every day looking forward to the next challenge at work. I am thankful for the wonderful team support. We are constantly innovating and finding solutions to problems. It gives me a huge sense of job satisfaction!” Volunteering trip with SP colleagues in Cambodia in 2015. In his free time, Razali enjoys travelling for nature walks, trekking, snorkelling, and exploring other types of land and sea activities. He also finds meaning in organising charity trips to children’s orphanages in Thailand, Cambodia and Indonesia and has even rallied his colleagues to join him in distributing essential items for these vulnerable communities. With borders reopening, Razali hopes to revive this initiative very soon!
