Powering ambition with passion Singapore Power scholar Leong Wai Yee challenges herself to excel in a job that serves the country’s interests by panchalee thakur NOT many young girls find switches on an electrical panel fascinating. But Ms Leong Wai Yee, 25, remembers getting a kick out of working the numerous switches and buttons on the control panel of her primary school’s public address system. Her interest in electrical systems grew and she looked forward to physics lessons and experiments with electrical circuits in secondary school and junior college. After her A levels, Ms Leong went to Imperial College London in the United Kingdom in 2008 for a four-year direct master’s degree in Electrical & Electronic Engineering (with Management) on a Singapore Power Overseas Scholarship. She graduated in 2012 with first class honours, ranking in the top 5 per cent of her cohort, after which she returned to Singapore to begin her career as an engineer at Singapore Power. Beyond academia All through her academic life, Ms Leong has been active in many co-curricular and extracurricular activities, besides attaining academic excellence. The National Junior College (NJC) alumna achieved the NJC Colours Award for outstanding leadership and co-curricular achievements, and was appointed the volunteer manager for the Citibank-YMCA Youth for Causes project after completing the YM- CA-NUS Business School Volunteer Service Management Programme. She also led the NJC Harmonica Band to clinch the gold award with honours at the Singapore Youth Festival Central Judging event in 2007. Ms Leong continued to pursue her interests during her university days in London. She was part of an Imperial College Singapore Society’s musical production and took part in netball competitions at the annual Nottingham games. However, there was no let-up in her studies because of her extra-curricular activities. During her summer break in 2011, she studied, and aced, corporate strategy at the Harvard Summer School. Not only did she attain the Business Imperial certification that comprised a series of master classes to critically appraise contemporary business issues and their impact on the global business environment, she was also a finalist at the Royal Academy of Engineering Technical Communication competition in 2008, which judged participants’ abilities to make technical presentations. Understanding the organisation Her journey at Singapore Power started with an internship at its network management division during her university days. “During the brief stint, I understood the strong technical capabilities of our engineers who worked round the clock to maintain Singapore’s electricity network. I was motivated to see many of the engineering theories taught at school being put to work. It reinforced my interest in what I was studying,” she says. She was posted to the same division after graduation and it was there where she experienced field engineering work. “I helped plan and implement distribution cable replacement and repair works. A frontline engineer doesn’t have a dull day,” she says. Ms Leong says there have been abundant learning opportunities since she took up the scholarship five years ago. For instance, she got to attend technical and non-technical sessions such as communication, writing, presentation and problem solving skills from the company’s continuous learning programme. Structured job rotations also help glean insights into different facets of the organisation. “I have had the opportunity to sit in senior management meetings, where I have learned how and why certain decisions are made. These are valuable lessons in strategic decision-making that are preparing me for a future in the organisation,” she adds. A role in economic progress Ms Leong understands that the energy sector is crucial for Singapore’s continued economic progress, and being a part of it makes her proud. “I feel that I am playing a part in powering the nation. Whatever the job profile of a Singapore Power employee, each one is working towards the common goal of delivering energy efficiently and reliably,” she says. She also gets to be involved with some of this century’s key issues around renewable energy, distributed generation and electric vehicles. Currently, she is working on a project about knowledge management which has exposed her to the different phases of implementing changes in an organisation. It involves working with all business units of the company and entails challenging current practices, mindset and culture, she says. She also travelled to the UK to network and exchange information with the company’s British counterparts, and to Bali for an international conference. Ms Leong believes that “choosing a scholarship is really a matter of making a career choice” and that aspiring scholars should follow their passion. “Be willing to challenge yourself. The title of a scholar should not be displayed as a badge of honour but rather hidden as a pillar of motivation to drive you to achieve a high level of performance in everything you do,” she says. Ms Leong is involved in key issues such as renewable energy, distributed generation and electric vehicles. PHOTO: CHONG JUN LIANG

Penta-Ocean Construction, which was awarded the latest contract in October, started work last month on the 5.2 km JI-Pioneer (Road) cable tunnel under the West Jurong Channel, Singapore Power disclosed in its just-released 2012/13 annual report. No project cost was mentioned because of contractual reasons. “Cost-wise, it is a fraction of the $2 billion mainland tunnel project. But the undersea tunnel is not a small project, and it is also more challenging as it goes deeper,” said SP’s CEO, Wong Kim Yin, in an interview. Expected to be around 45 metres to 80 metres deep, the undersea cable tunnel is “planned in conjunction with the (next-generation) 400kV West Jurong Island substation and will accommodate up to 10 circuits” from JI to the mainland, SP added. It will also house Singapore’s next-generation 400 kV transmission cables (replacing current 230kV ones) which have greater capacity to handle the volume of electricity being generated and transmitted here. SP had earlier carried out both preliminary and detailed soil investigations, as the tunnel will be built through Jurong sedimentary formation. The undersea cable tunnel is scheduled for completion by 2018, in time to handle the substantial increase in transmission load from JI, which is seeing new plantings by gencos including Keppel Merlimau Cogen, Sembcorp Cogen, Tuas Power’s multi-utilities complex and newcomer PacificLight Power. “By 2019, transmission load in south-western Singapore is expected to increase by 62.5 per cent,” SP said, explaining the need to expand the transmission cable network in that area, which includes Jurong Island and Tuas (where the new port will also be built). Timing-wise, it will also tie in with the expected completion of the mega $2 billion cross-island tunnel The undersea cable tunnel is scheduled for completion by 2018, in time to handle the substantial increase in transmission load from JI, which is seeing new plantings. project on the mainland. Comprising two ultra-deep, extra-high voltage power transmission tunnels running 16.5 km east-west and 18.5 km north-south, the tunnels are expected to be completed in Q2, 2017 and Q2, 2018 respectively. Tunnelling proper of the two is set to start early next year, following the completion of the upper and lower access shafts this year. In its annual report, SP said that it is leveraging cutting-edge technology and investing in network infrastructure to support key industries and economic and social developments. For instance, it said that to cater for future growth and development of petrochemical industries on JI, development of Tembusu 230kV and 400kV West Jurong Island substations is progressing. Rangoon 400kV substation is also set to be completed by this year-end to cater to power demand growth in central Singapore. On the gas front, subsidiary PowerGas also supported the start-up of the Singapore LNG terminal in May this year by laying pipelines connecting SLNG to new transmission customers.

No project cost was mentioned because of contractual reasons. “Cost-wise, it is a fraction of the $2 billion mainland tunnel project. But the undersea tunnel is not a small project, and it is also more challenging as it goes deeper,” said SP’s CEO, Wong Kim Yin, in an interview. Expected to be around 45 metres to 80 metres deep, the undersea cable tunnel is “planned in conjunction with the (next-generation) 400kV West Jurong Island substation and will accommodate up to 10 circuits” from JI to the mainland, SP added. It will also house Singapore’s next-generation 400 kV transmission cables (replacing current 230kV ones) which have greater capacity to handle the volume of electricity being generated and transmitted here. SP had earlier carried out both preliminary and detailed soil investigations, as the tunnel will be built through Jurong sedimentary formation. The undersea cable tunnel is scheduled for completion by 2018, in time to handle the substantial increase in transmission load from JI, which is seeing new plantings by gencos including Keppel Merlimau Cogen, Sembcorp Cogen, Tuas Power’s multi-utilities complex and newcomer PacificLight Power. “By 2019, transmission load in south-western Singapore is expected to increase by 62.5 per cent,” SP said, explaining the need to expand the transmission cable network in that area, which includes Jurong Island and Tuas (where the new port will also be built).

Comprising two ultra-deep, extra-high voltage power transmission tunnels running 16.5 km east-west and 18.5 km north-south, the tunnels are expected to be completed in Q2, 2017 and Q2, 2018 respectively. Tunnelling proper of the two is set to start early next year, following the completion of the upper and lower access shafts this year. In its annual report, SP said that it is leveraging cutting-edge technology and investing in network infrastructure to support key industries and economic and social developments. For instance, it said that to cater for future growth and development of petrochemical industries on JI, development of Tembusu 230kV and 400kV West Jurong Island substations is progressing. Rangoon 400kV substation is also set to be completed by this year-end to cater to power demand growth in central Singapore. On the gas front, subsidiary PowerGas also supported the start-up of the Singapore LNG terminal in May this year by laying pipelines connecting SLNG to new transmission customers.

Penta-Ocean Construction, which was awarded the latest contract in October, started work last month on the 5.2 km JI-Pioneer (Road) cable tunnel under the West Jurong Channel, Singapore Power disclosed in its just-released 2012/13 annual report. No project cost was mentioned because of contractual reasons. “Cost-wise, it is a fraction of the $2 billion mainland tunnel project.

Penta-Ocean Construction, which was awarded the latest contract in October, started work last month on the 5.2 km JI-Pioneer (Road) cable tunnel under the West Jurong Channel, Singapore Power disclosed in its just-released 2012/13 annual report. No project cost was mentioned because of contractual reasons. “Cost-wise, it is a fraction of the $2 billion mainland tunnel project. But the undersea tunnel is not a small project, and it is also more challenging as it goes deeper,” said SP’s CEO, Wong Kim Yin, in an interview. Expected to be around 45 metres to 80 metres deep, the undersea cable tunnel is “planned in conjunction with the (next-generation) 400kV West Jurong Island substation and will accommodate up to 10 circuits” from JI to the mainland, SP added. It will also house Singapore’s next-generation 400 kV transmission cables (replacing current 230kV ones) which have greater capacity to handle the volume of electricity being generated and transmitted here. SP had earlier carried out both preliminary and detailed soil investigations, as the tunnel will be built through Jurong sedimentary formation. The undersea cable tunnel is scheduled for completion by 2018, in time to handle the substantial increase in transmission load from JI, which is seeing new plantings by gencos including Keppel Merlimau Cogen, Sembcorp Cogen, Tuas Power’s multi-utilities complex and newcomer PacificLight Power. “By 2019, transmission load in south-western Singapore is expected to increase by 62.5 per cent,” SP said, explaining the need to expand the transmission cable network in that area, which includes Jurong Island and Tuas (where the new port will also be built).

Comprising two ultra-deep, extra-high voltage power transmission tunnels running 16.5 km east-west and 18.5 km north-south, the tunnels are expected to be completed in Q2, 2017 and Q2, 2018 respectively. Tunnelling proper of the two is set to start early next year, following the completion of the upper and lower access shafts this year. In its annual report, SP said that it is leveraging cutting-edge technology and investing in network infrastructure to support key industries and economic and social developments. For instance, it said that to cater for future growth and development of petrochemical industries on JI, development of Tembusu 230kV and 400kV West Jurong Island substations is progressing. Rangoon 400kV substation is also set to be completed by this year-end to cater to power demand growth in central Singapore.
