SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation 38 Years with SP: Growing through Change RELIABILITY Maizan Binte Abdullah, Senior Technician from Condition Monitoring (CM), manages a team of 10 to perform health checks across substations in the north of Singapore. Her team collates and analyses recorded measurements and checks for anomalies in switchgears and transformers. Maizan Binte Abdullah performing condition monitoring checks. (Photo was taken before circuit breaker) When Maizan joined SP 38 years ago, she was doing something quite different. Learning and Adapting After completing her post-secondary education, Maizan started as an apprentice in the Electro Mechanical Maintenance Fitting department at the Public Utilities Board (PUB). Subsequently, she was posted to the Meters section to conduct meter maintenance activities. Maizan (in blue attire) and her former colleagues from Meters section enjoying a durian feast together. When PUB corporatised in 1995, she moved to SP where she continued with the Meters section for the next 14 years. She would have thought that would be her home for the rest of her career. However in 2019, she was seconded to CM. This change to field work seemed to be unsurmountable, having been in a deskbound administrative role for more than 20 years. “Given my age, I was very worried that I may not be able to cope with the demands of the new role. However, I recognised that I needed to move out of my comfort zone and acquire new skills to remain relevant,” shared Maizan. After going through training and with strong support from her team and the management, Maizan is settling so well at CM that she became the team lead for North Zone in the same year. A lifelong learner, Maizan completed her part-time Diploma in Engineering (Power Engineering) programme at Singapore Polytechnic in May 2020 under SP’s sponsorship. She soldiered on despite having to juggle her new role and studies. “There were times when I felt overwhelmed and felt like giving up. I am glad I had the support from my family, my boss and colleagues who encouraged me to persevere. This experience has been very enriching, and I look forward to continue growing!” exclaimed Maizan. Growing despite COVID-19 With this mindset, Maizan and her team continued to learn new ways of working to carry out their duties during the Circuit Breaker period. Maizan and her colleagues use handheld detectors to detect for abnormalities in the network. This is to prevent faults from developing and causing power disruptions. “Due to the need to minimise contact, we had to stagger our working hours. This is a challenge as CM relies heavily on teamwork. We also had to wear a mask when doing checks in the substation, which is an enclosed space and often hot and humid,” shared Maizan. However, Maizan takes it in her stride. She performs daily check-ins with her team members via instant messaging and tele-conferencing. With a sparkle in her eyes, she said, “Work is never the same every day. I take this as an opportunity to grow – to be stronger and better in managing change and future crises.” — 27 July 2020 TAGS LIFELONG LEARNERPEOPLE OF SPRELIABILITYCONDITION MONITORING YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED TO READ How this 'grid doctor' maintains the health of Singapore's electricity network so everything stays on Ground feedback, digital tools: How she helps 8,000 workers end their day safely Faster repairs, fewer disruptions: Meet the innovative teams using smart tech to keep your piped gas supply flowing

SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Safeguarding the Backbone of Singapore’s Grid RELIABILITY The transmission substations that Kane Neo oversees are key to keeping Singapore powered Kane Neo and his team protect a part of the power world that is invisible to most – the high voltage transmission networks. These networks form the backbone of Singapore’s electricity infrastructure, connecting power from the power generation plant to the distribution networks that connect it to our customers. “Power that runs through transmission networks can be massive – ranging from 66kV to 400kV. When running at full capacity, one 230kV transmission substation can power up to eight towns, each the size of Toa Payoh,” explains the 47-year-old, General Manager of SP’s power grid business.  He first discovered his passion for power engineering when studying at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Power is generated at very high voltage, travelling through these networks before being progressively “stepped down” at the transmission substations. Through various distribution substations, power is sent via smaller cables of the network to homes and offices. “The work we do is highly sensitive and teamwork is important. Any issue on the transmission network can cause a huge impact,” he adds. A transmission substation, which feeds into many distribution substations, can affect several estates if it faces disruption, he says.   At SP, the path to become a transmission engineer spans about four years of on-the-job training and structured courses. Regular health checks on transmission assets such as cables, switchgears and transformers form a critical part of the job for Kane and his team of over 160. The size, importance and complexity of the equipment do not make this easy. For instance, Kane’s team keeps a close watch on transmission cables, which run for approximately 2,600km, and some 3,000 transmission assets island-wide. Any anomalies that may impact transmission assets, are detected early using data from sensors and rectified. Stringent checks include tests on the quality of gas that insulates the high voltage equipment. “If we detect a problem, it needs to be solved in the shortest amount of time, and we persist until we get to the bottom of it,” says Kane, who has been with SP since 2000 and spent the last three years in his current role. He also has a decade of experience working on the distribution network. For Kane and his team, it means constantly being on the alert, pre-empting possible issues and finding ways to make the network more robust. Kane (second from left) with his family (from left) Le Wei, Julie and Le Xuan. While few understand the scale and significance of the transmission network, or the invisible heroes that keep it going, his 12- and 13-year-old daughters do. Le Wei and Le Xuan, are able to spot the various transmission substations when they go out on drives as a family. “As they enjoy modern conveniences, they are also more keenly aware of what it takes to power their lives and the nation daily,” he says. — 17 October 2019 TAGS PEOPLE OF SPRELIABILITY YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED TO READ How this 'grid doctor' maintains the health of Singapore's electricity network so everything stays on Ground feedback, digital tools: How she helps 8,000 workers end their day safely Faster repairs, fewer disruptions: Meet the innovative teams using smart tech to keep your piped gas supply flowing

[20220717] The Straits Times - SP Group sponsors staff for engineering degree course in SIT tie-uphttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:7cf1cfc1-544c-4bfa-b75d-de291924b3d2
SP Group sponsors staff for engineering degree course in SIT tie-up Ang Qing Mr Abdul Latiff Muhamed Abdullah, 38, will return to school for the first time in September since graduating with an Institute of Technical Education Higher Nitec electrical engineering diploma in 2010. He is among a pioneer batch of five SP Group employees to benefit from a partnership inked by the utilities group on Friday with the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) to upskill and reskill its workers. The three-year collaboration, signed at the Energy Innovation 2022 conference at Marina Bay Sands, will provide continuous skills upgrading pathways for SP employees through a full-time undergraduate degree in electrical power engineering sponsored by their company. At the conference organised by the Energy Market Authority, Minister of State for Trade and Industry Low Yen Ling said the programme is part of efforts to grow the energy sector’s workforce to bolster Singapore’s green economy ambitions. SP’s support for his three-year degree course has given Mr Latiff an opportunity to further his studies in electrical engineering, which he had put on hold for years as he could not find the time to do so. Mr Latiff was part of the team that laid the power cable grid infrastructure for the Marina Coastal Expressway in 2013. “As SP Group looks to build up electric vehicle infrastructure, I hope to contribute to this plan, which helps to protect the environment, by studying related modules,” he said. His colleague Chan Meng Hoe, who has been with SP for almost three decades, has decided to set aside time to study as well. Mr Chan was involved in completing a utilities service diversion for the Downtown MRT Line ahead of schedule and the pre-development of Changi Airport’s Terminal 5. The principal technical officer, 49, said upgrading is crucial as he needs to keep pace with new technologies in the energy sector. Friday’s agreement was an extension of the ongoing partnership between SIT and SP to advance Singapore’s energy sector. Their collaborations include SP’s investment in Singapore’s first experimental, multi-energy microgrid at SIT’s future campus in the Punggol Digital District. aqing@sph.com.sg
[20150728] The Straits Times - Charge Phone Free At 200 Stationshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:22b912a6-c911-4a9b-bab8-39d8e6c13932
The Straits Times, Page 4, 28 July 2015 Charge phone free at 200 stations Mr Ridwan Hashim, 51, a delivery driver, charging his smartphone at a charging station in nex mall yesterday. ST PHOTO: LAU FOOK KONG Tiffany Fumiko Tay On the go and your battery is low? By the end of this year, this will not be so much of a problem as 200 free mobile charging stations will be available islandwide. The initiative by Singapore Power (SP) is a gift for SG50 presented in partnership with SingHealth, Tan Tock Seng Hospital, the National Library Board, NTUC Fair- Price supermarkets and several tertiary institutions. The stations, which will be available for one to two years, will be launched progressively in busy locations, including hospitals, tertiary institutions, libraries and supermarkets. At least 20 stations are expected to be installed by the middle of next month, with about 40 more added monthly. All units are expected to be in place by December. SP declined to say how much the effort will cost. Each station is equipped with 10 individual slots, which contain different charging tips that will fit most mobile phones and tablets, including iPhone models 3 to 6, and a blank USB port for users to insert their own charging cables. Charging time will be comparable to charging your device at home, according to SP. And while there is no time limit to how long you can leave your device plugged in, they encourage users not to hog the stations. Users can follow the on-screen instructions displayed in English, Chinese, Malay and Tamil. They must scan the barcode of a personal identification card such as an NRIC, driving licence, student pass or senior citizen concession card, and create a four-digit personal identification number before plugging in their device. They can then leave their device to charge, and use the same two-step authentication process to retrieve it later on. Speaking at the “Gift of Power” launch at the Singapore General Hospital (SGH) yesterday, SP Group chief executive officer Wong Kim Yin said the scheme is aimed at alleviating the stress of modern life by helping Singaporeans stay connected. “Running out of power can be distressing. This allows us to get a power boost on the go while attending to other daily tasks,” Mr Wong said. Eight charging stations are already up and running. Three are at SGH – two at the Academia building and one at the Singapore National Eye Centre – and five are at NTUC FairPrice supermarkets in Hougang Street 21, Ang Mo Kio Hub, Thomson Plaza, nex mall and The Woodgrove. Ms Sarah Low, 25, a student at Nanyang Technological University, used the charging station at the eye centre to power up her phone while waiting for a check-up yesterday. She said: “It is very convenient, especially when you have to wait for long periods of time. I can put my handphone in the locker and it is very safe,” she said. tiffanyt@sph.com.sg � For an up-to-date list of charging station sites, visit http://giftofpower. singaporepower.com.sg Source: The Straits Times © Singapore Press Holdings Limited.

Media Release - Singapore Power Boosts Public Safety Around Major Construction Sites With Two New Roads For Heavy Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/wcm/connect/spgrp/44dacf4a-fb85-4861-bb37-4c8f63ce07b1/%5B20140723%5D+Media+Release+-+Singapore+Power+Boosts+Public+Safety+Around+Major+Construction+Sites+With+Two+New+Roads+For+Heavy+Vehicles.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=
23 July 2014 News Release Singapore Power boosts public safety around major construction sites with two new roads for heavy vehicles Access roads at May Road and Kallang bypass schools and residential areas Singapore Power (SP) has stepped up public safety measures by building two roads for heavy construction vehicles to access its May Road and Kallang cable tunnel sites directly from expressways, bypassing nearby residential areas and schools. The move has been well received by community stakeholders, whom Singapore Power consulted in the course of undertaking this initiative. At the May Road site, SP constructed an additional lane to the Central Expressway (CTE) in the city-bound direction before the Balestier Road exit. This allows heavy vehicles to enter and exit the site without taking the narrow roads around Hong Wen School and the residential neighbourhood around McNair Road, Towner Road and May Road. At the Kallang site, an access way was created off the slip road alongside the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE), in the direction of Bendemeer at Geylang Bahru. Construction vehicles now do not drive through Geylang Bahru and Geylang Bahru Lane, as well as around Kallang Basin Swimming Complex, to enter or exit the Kallang site. The roads were built in the first half of 2014 at a total cost of about $4 million, with the one at Kallang opening first in January and the one at May Road opening in May. “At Singapore Power, we spare no effort in ensuring the safety of the community, our workers and contractors,” said Michael Chin, Managing Director (Special Projects), SP PowerGrid. “This initiative meant going beyond established industry practices for safety. We will continue to be alert to any risks and room for improvement at our sites.” The new access roads are the latest of safety measures implemented from the onset of the cable tunnel construction in end 2012. Initial safety measures included deploying traffic marshals at schools, restricting heavy vehicle traffic during school peak hours, giving talks to students to raise road safety awareness and installing water barricades to prevent jaywalking around the construction sites. SP formulated these safety measures in consultation with community stakeholders. The project teams make door-to-door visits to residents and attend monthly Residents’ Committee meetings. For the May Road site, these stakeholders included Hong Wen School, Whampoa McNair and St George’s West Residents’ Committees, Whampoa Citizens’ Consultative Committee and residents living near the site. At the Kallang site, there is regular consultation 1 with the Kallang Bahru Residents’ Committee, Kolam Ayer Citizens’ Consultative Committee, Kallang Basin Swimming Complex, Saint Joseph’s Institution Junior (when the holding school was there) and residents living near the site. “Safety is of paramount importance to us. We appreciate the continuous engagement efforts by Singapore Power, as well as the many proactive measures which it has introduced to help ensure the safety of road users in our community,” said Mr Raymond Poon, principal of Hong Wen School. “The safety of our residents and children is of the highest importance to us, so it is heartening to see the road safety measures that Singapore Power has implemented and especially the creation of this new access into the Kallang construction site,” said Chiang Heng Liang, Chairman of the Kolam Ayer Citizens’ Consultative Committee. “Prevention is better than cure, so it is prudent to segregate heavy vehicle traffic from the residential road network when and where feasible.” All heavy vehicles entering or exiting the May Road site will use the new access road, only outside of peak hours, to ensure minimal impact on CTE traffic. The existing safety measures along May Road will remain in force as light vehicles continue to use the previous site access. All vehicles entering or exiting the Kallang site will use the new access road instead of Geylang Bahru Lane.
